For small professional practices
Sooner or later an incident, an insurer or an accreditor asks what you have been doing about security. The answer needs to already exist. Secondsign keeps it written down, current, and signed by someone independent of the people who run your IT.
Book a readiness call20 minutes. We do not need access to your systems.
What we promise
Your readiness checklist stays current on a set review cycle, and your incident plan is ready before you need it. The record builds as the work happens.
We watch your practice from the outside, the way an attacker would. Leaked staff passwords and logins nobody closed are the usual finds. You hear about a problem while it is still quiet.
An Australian forensic investigator picks up the work, and they already know your practice, because they have been watching it all month.
What you actually receive
Most of what we do happens quietly in the background. These two documents are how you see it, and they arrive on a schedule whatever kind of month it has been.
A signed statement of where your practice stands.
Current
An expert independent of the provider doing your IT work signs the attestation. It records what was checked, and when, in plain terms.
One page, in plain English. A practice manager can read it in 4 minutes and know what, if anything, needs a decision.
It is written plainly enough to forward to an accountant, a broker or your own board.
Specimen layouts, not a real practice. We tailor the content to your practice and your profession.
Why independent
A provider who builds and runs your defences cannot independently check them, and your insurer knows it.
That is the gap Secondsign fills, and it is where the name comes from. Yours is the first signature on the state of your practice. Ours is the second.
We work alongside your existing IT provider rather than replacing them. We identify the risk, specify the fix, and hand clear instructions to your provider. Your provider does the work and invoices you directly.
We never touch the implementation, so there is nothing we can quietly sell you at the other end of a finding. That separation is built into how Secondsign works.
Do not have an IT provider? Ask us. We can introduce you to Australian providers who already work to the standard we check against.
Fit
If you look after practices, you are how the work gets done, not who we sell to. We would rather work alongside you.
