FAQ
Common Questions About IT for Financial Services
What IT and cyber security services does Milnsbridge provide for financial services firms?
Milnsbridge provides fully managed IT and cyber security services tailored to accounting practices, financial advisory firms, mortgage brokers, and private equity offices in Sydney. Every plan includes SentinelOne endpoint protection, email security, managed patching, 24/7 monitoring, and Microsoft 365 management at a fixed monthly price per user. Additional capabilities such as cloud backup, managed FortiGate firewalls, DMARC email authentication, and multi-factor authentication are available based on your requirements.
How does Milnsbridge help financial services firms meet ASIC and APRA requirements?
ASIC and APRA both expect regulated firms to maintain robust information security and technology risk management frameworks. Milnsbridge managed IT plans include security controls aligned with the Essential Eight framework, which supports many of these obligations. For firms needing specific regulatory compliance support - such as documentation aligned with APRA Prudential Standard CPS 234, AFSL obligations, or TPB requirements - Milnsbridge offers consultancy services scoped and quoted based on your compliance needs.
What data security controls are in place for financial services clients?
All Milnsbridge managed IT clients receive endpoint protection via SentinelOne and email security as standard. Additional capabilities such as ThreatLocker application control, cloud backup via Cove Data Protection, and managed DMARC are available based on your requirements. For financial services clients handling sensitive data, Milnsbridge can scope additional controls such as access management and audit logging through a consultancy engagement.
Does Milnsbridge have experience with the specific IT challenges of accounting and advisory firms?
Yes. Milnsbridge works with accounting practices and financial advisory firms across Greater Sydney, with experience supporting common practice management platforms, document management systems, and cloud accounting tools used in the sector. The team understands the data sensitivity, regulatory requirements, and productivity demands of financial services environments — including the need for highly reliable systems during tax season and reporting periods.
What is the response time if a financial services firm experiences a critical IT or security incident?
Milnsbridge's average answer time is 20 seconds, with 99% of incidents responded to and 98% resolved within one hour. Critical incidents — including suspected data breaches, ransomware, or system outages affecting client-facing operations — are treated as Priority 1 and escalated immediately. For financial services firms with regulatory notification obligations, Milnsbridge can also assist with OAIC breach reporting under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.
What pricing plans are available for financial services firms?
Milnsbridge offers three fixed monthly plans: Core at $89/user/month, Growth at $99/user/month, and Enhanced at $149/user/month. All plans include SentinelOne endpoint protection, email security, managed patching, 24/7 monitoring, and fixed pricing with no surprise invoices. Core includes 3 hours of remote support per month; Growth and Enhanced include unlimited remote and onsite support. Financial services firms with regulatory compliance needs can engage Milnsbridge for consultancy services scoped to their specific requirements.
