WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND – 15th September, 2026 – Business leaders are increasingly accountable for cyber security, yet most of the software designed to manage it is built for technical specialists. New Zealand cyber security consultancy Revolution InfoSec believes this has created a “forgotten middle” of New Zealand businesses. These organisations have outgrown spreadsheets and ad hoc processes but don’t yet have the resources, expertise or need for enterprise-grade cyber governance platforms. This places them at risk of large incoming penalties.
To address this gap, Revolution InfoSec has launched SecurityCentral – a governance platform designed specifically for business leaders and owners who need confidence that their organisation’s cyber security risk is under control, without needing to become cyber security experts themselves.
While large organisations often employ dedicated cyber security teams and sophisticated governance tools, many medium sized organisations face the same cyber risks and increasing governance expectations, but without specialist internal resources. SecurityCentral offers an affordable platform that bridges this gap for businesses and organisations of all sizes.
Business leaders know cyber security is now a boardroom responsibility, but many simply don’t know where to start. Furthermore, this is about to get a lot more serious; the law is likely to change. Directors will face personal criminal liability of up to $500,000 for a critical breach.
“Businesses aren’t looking for another complex IT platform. They’re looking for confidence that the right things are being done. They need risks identified, and meaningful information that they can use to make decisions and provide assurance to their board, customers and stakeholders,” says Revolution InfoSec Founder Alistair Ross.
Unlike many governance, risk and compliance (GRC) platforms designed primarily for technical specialists, SecurityCentral has been developed alongside New Zealand businesses facing these real-world challenges. Drawing on Revolution InfoSec’s years of consulting experience, it has been built from the ground up to provide business leaders with a practical, easy-to-use way to understand and manage cyber risk.
SecurityCentral supports internationally recognised standards such as ISO/IEC 27001, alongside New Zealand-specific frameworks including the New Zealand Minimum Cyber Security Standards (NZMCSS) and Te Whatu Ora’s Health Information Security Framework (NZ HISF). For organisations operating in, or supplying to, the New Zealand public sector, these New Zealand frameworks provide a practical pathway to demonstrating that recognised cyber security controls are in place and meeting customer and procurement expectations.
SecurityCentral also combines its governance, risk and compliance tooling with integrated Vulnerability Management, giving organisations visibility of both governance activities and technical vulnerabilities through a single platform. While many GRC platforms rely on separate vulnerability management solutions, SecurityCentral brings both together, providing business leaders with a more complete picture of their organisation’s cyber security.
“We built SecurityCentral because we kept seeing the same problem. Growing New Zealand businesses were expected to manage cyber risk like large enterprises, but the tools available were either too basic or designed for organisations with dedicated cyber security teams. We wanted to build something that gave business leaders a complete picture of cyber risk in one place, while speaking the language of business rather than IT,” says Ross.
Revolution InfoSec believes the growing focus on governance, customer trust and assurance, cyber insurance and regulatory expectations means more New Zealand organisations are entering this “forgotten middle”, creating demand for practical cyber security solutions designed specifically for decision-makers rather than technical specialists.
Launch Offer: To celebrate the launch of SecurityCentral, Revolution InfoSec is inviting five eligible New Zealand organisations to become Founding Customers. Selected organisations will receive a complimentary 12-month SecurityCentral subscription and work alongside the Revolution InfoSec team during implementation.
