Announcing SecBoost Jira Integration.

Maintaining a complex risk environment often means working across multiple systems, teams and workflows.

That’s why we’ve added optional Jira integration to SecBoost Control Implementation tracking.

With Jira integration, teams can create and track Jira tickets for ISM and Essential Eight controls directly from within SecBoost. It’s a faster way to assign work, coordinate across teams and keep uplift moving.

This complements SecBoost’s existing integrations, including:

• Okta and Entra ID for SSO
• OSCAL exports for SSPs and Assessment Results
• Import and export of CCM and SSP Annexes

If you’re a Jira shop working through your IRAP or Essential Eight uplift or security reporting, SecBoost is ready to help.

“What’s your Essential Eight maturity level?”

For some businesses this is a conversation starter, and a chance to demonstrate real value.

For others, it’s a quick answer and a closed door.

SecBoost helps Australian small businesses proactively manage their Essential Eight and ISM security uplift, generating required supporting documentation, suggesting control implementations, and keeping evidence attached to the controls it belongs to.

Be ready the next time the question is asked.

SecBoost is continuing to deepen its support for the Essential Eight.

We’ve added new Essential Eight reporting capability to SecBoost, including:

• Essential Eight Target Progress Report
• Essential Eight Portfolio Executive Report

These reports help teams see target maturity progress, identify blockers, track gaps such as controls with no visibility, and give executives a clearer view of Essential Eight posture across one system or a broader portfolio.

This builds on our existing E8 dashboard, control mapping, evidence tracking, and documentation suite, all grounded in your actual project scope: systems, boundaries, classifications, suppliers, cloud services, and operational context.

If your team is preparing for DISP, IRAP, or an internal cyber uplift, SecBoost makes Essential Eight progress visible, actionable, and tied to the evidence that matters.

We’ve released a new SecBoost feature: Implementation evidence attachments.

You can now attach evidence directly to individual controls with simple drag-and-drop upload, so screenshots, PDFs, exports and other supporting records stay organised and easy to review.

That means less back-and-forth during IRAP assessments, a clearer audit trail, and evidence virus-scanned and stored exactly where your team needs it.

If you’re working through ISM compliance or preparing for IRAP, get in touch to see how SecBoost can help.

March 2026 ISM coverage added

SecBoost now supports the March 2026 ISM release across your project setup, SSP Annex, Control Matrix, and generated documentation suite.

This includes the updated cyber security principles plus new and amended controls covering areas such as executive AI accountability, cyber supply chain security, cryptographic agility, operational technology isolation, enterprise mobility, and secure AI application development.

Get in touch if you have any questions or would like a demo.

We’ve just released AI Implementation Suggestions in SecBoost.

This new feature gives customers a practical starting point for control implementation comments, generated from the control requirements and the project context already captured in SecBoost. It also suggests supporting evidence points, so teams can move from a blank field to a usable draft much faster.

Protecting customer data is paramount: we only send the official ISM control details and the structured project context needed to generate the suggestion. Existing implementation text and customer wording are not sent through for generation, access is permission-based, and prompt safety checks are applied before a request is processed. All AI runs on Australian-local, IRAP assessed (PROTECTED) infrastructure, and queries are not recorded outside your local audit logs or used for model training.

This results in faster drafting, less repetitive work, and customer teams still maintain control.

If you’re already using SecBoost, keep an eye out for the new AI Implementation Suggestion panel in the controls workflow.

SecBoost is now available.

SecBoost SaaS helps Australian businesses prepare to meet their IRAP, Essential Eight and DISP requirements by:

• providing a dashboard showing their implementation progress against applicable controls, highlighting gaps, outstanding items, assessor feedback, and notifications
• building a profile of their business and suggesting control implementations tailored to them
• maintaining registers and collecting evidence against controls
• producing high quality plans, policies, and standards, all cross-referenced against the ISM
• outputting detailed reports in PDF, XLSX and OSCAL formats, including SSP Annex, CCM, and Essential Eight maturity report

SecBoost takes an Australian ISM-first approach, not crosswalked from ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, CIS or SCF, and is updated to the latest version, December 2025. It even includes an AI-governance policy template, automatically matched to your applicability and implementation.

For IRAP assessors and enterprises, SecBoost has implemented workflows, tasks, teams, and SSO, giving them the tools to assess or manage several systems from one secure panel.

If you would like to see SecBoost in action, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to give you a demo.

Proudly Australian made and owned.
