How Essential Eight Counters Cyber Attacks?

The annual damage caused by cybercrime & data breaches worldwide will exceed $10.5 trillion by 2025, as reported by Cybersecurity Ventures. To counter the rising threats and potential vulnerabilities for modern organizations, this bundle of Essential Eight strategies is focused on achieving the following objectives:


  Preventing potential Cyberattacks like Malware, Phishing, etc.

  Limiting the Extent of these Cyberattacks

  Recovery of Data & System Availability



Patch Application

Configure Microsoft Office Macro Settings

Application Control

Regular Backups

Essential 8
Security Controls

Multi-Factor Authentication

Restrict Administrative Privileges

User Application Hardening

How miniOrange Helps Your
Organization With Essential Eight?



Patch Applications

Australian cybercrime reports state, “One in 5 critical vulnerabilities was exploited within 48 hours from the release of apps.” It is crucial to regularly patch applications to run a vulnerability scan to identify missing patches, and proactively address software flaws as they arise, sealing potential entry points for malicious actors with the miniOrange Solution.

Configure Microsoft Office Macro Settings

Your Microsoft Office Macros can contain malicious code that when executed provides attackers access to your sensitive resources. miniOrange prevents potentially harmful scripts from running and enables admins to block user access to configure Microsoft Office Macros for users who do not have a demonstrated business requirement.

Application Control

The Application Control strategy ensures that only trusted & authorized applications are allowed to function and any malicious or unauthorized apps are blocked from the corporate network. With the miniOrange IAM solution, you can implement a strict access list, granting entry only to approved applications, akin to a zero-trust network architecture.


Regular Backups

Minimizing the impact of potentially catastrophic data breaches requires a robust data backup and recovery plan. The miniOrange solution provides secure and resilient backups of data, applications, and settings, ensuring business continuity and criticality. These backups can be performed daily, weekly, or incrementally, and are tested during disaster recovery exercises to restore data, applications, and settings to a common point in time.

Multi-Factor Authentication

MFA or Multi-Factor Authentication can block 99.9% of modern automated cyberattacks. The added armor of MFA security can effectively protect sensitive enterprise sensitive data and corporate privacy. miniOrange provides a wide range of MFA solutions like MFA for OS systems like Windows, macOS & Linux, MFA for VPNs & Network Devices, Passwordless MFA, and many more. miniOrange supports 15+ MFA methods like Biometrics, OTP Verification, Authenticator Apps, etc.

Restrict Administrative Privileges

Privileged accounts, including local, domain, and enterprise admin groups, can be vulnerable end-points for modern attackers to exploit. The miniOrange Privileged Access Management (PAM) Solution ensures users have only the necessary access for their roles, adhering to the principle of least privilege. It assigns a dedicated account for privileged users, reducing administrative access risks and enabling regular audits and revalidation of privileges.

User Application Hardening

Enhance the inherent security of your software applications, minimizing attack surfaces and maximizing threat prevention with miniOrange. Disable unwanted & suspicious services like Flash, Java, Internet Explorer 11, unwanted ads, untrusted scripts, etc. From the miniOrange dashboard, admins can update or modify all default user credentials for the organization’s approved list of applications.

Patch Operating Systems

Like patching applications, patching OS systems is also necessary in your corporate environment to reduce vulnerabilities and enhance system stability. miniOrange ensures operating systems like Windows, macOS, and Linux are patched, deploying patches to servers, workstations, and mobile devices, assessing vulnerabilities within 48 hours, two weeks, or one month.

Maturity Levels

In order to assist organisations with implementing the Essential Eight, four maturity levels have been defined (Maturity Level Zero through Maturity Level Three). Aside from Maturity Level Zero, maturity levels are based on mitigating increasing levels of tradecraft.


Maturity Level Zero

This means the organization is minimally aligned with the intent of the mitigation strategy, and it is vulnerable to common cyberattacks because not even basic security strategies or systems are in place.

Maturity Level One

This is a foundational level for any organization, establishing a secure baseline. The organization is partly aligned with the intent of the mitigation strategy. Attackers here act very opportunistically and leverage common methods like social engineering, credential theft, etc., to gain unauthorized access.

Maturity Level Two

In this stage, advanced security measures are in place, aligning with the mitigation strategy's intent. This level is recommended for most companies, including Australian government agencies. Attackers show a moderate increase in capability, investing more time in targeting specific systems.

Maturity Level Three

This level is ideal for organizations dealing with sensitive data and critical resources because it is fully aligned with the intent of the mitigation strategies, with robust security mechanisms in place. Threat actors may employ advanced techniques, seek privileged credentials, and pivot across networks, but most are unsuccessful in this stage.



How We Can Help?

Choosing the Essential Eight involves more than just implementing security measures; it reflects a commitment to digital resilience and integrity. Safeguard your organisation today and proactively stay ahead of cyber threats.
