About Business Technology
Technology now runs most of a business: email, files, phones, websites, accounting software and the data you hold about clients. When it works, nobody notices. When it fails or is attacked, everything stops.
Business Mantra’s technology team works with small and medium businesses. It looks after day-to-day IT support, cyber security, cloud services, office networks and phone systems. It also gives IT advice and builds websites, custom software and automation, including AI tools.
Because the team works alongside the group’s accountants and bookkeepers, it can also connect your accounting software with the rest of your systems.

Good to know
A recognised security baseline
The Australian Signals Directorate’s Essential Eight is a common starting point for protecting systems. It includes multi-factor authentication, keeping software up to date and regular backups.
Data breaches
Many businesses must report data breaches likely to cause serious harm to the people affected and to the OAIC. This covers most businesses with an annual turnover above $3 million, and some smaller ones, such as health service providers.
Where your data lives
Some cloud services store data overseas. Check this if you hold personal or sensitive information.
