Cybersecurity advisory, Brisbane and the Asia Pacific
Right-fit cybersecurity leadership.
Senior led, board ready, and sized to the business you actually are. Two decades of it, more than twenty live incidents, and nothing to sell you.
Five ways this usually starts.
Most engagements begin with one of these and end somewhere broader. You are not choosing a product.
Cybersecurity Strategy and Roadmap
Know where you actually stand, and the order to fix it in.
It starts with what is exposed today and ends with a roadmap your board can fund. Read more 02Ransomware and Incident Readiness
Find out what recovery really takes, before you need to know.
Playbooks, rehearsals and an honest recovery time, tested rather than assumed. Read more 03Frameworks and Compliance
ISO 27001, Essential Eight and SOCI, without the theatre.
The certificate matters less than the practice underneath it. Both get built. Read more 04AI Governance and Policy
Let the business use AI, on terms you can defend.
Policy, register and guardrails that survive contact with people who have already started. Read more 05Insider Risk and Due Diligence
Know who you are about to hire, fund or acquire.
Individual and persona due diligence, insider threat, and training that makes people harder to fool. Read moreCybersecurity advice you can check the motive of.
An industry that sells the fix it recommends has a hard time being believed. GreenCyber sells nothing, resells nothing and takes no margin from anyone, which makes the advice plainer and the conversations shorter.
Written for the person who has to decide
Most cybersecurity writing is aimed at cybersecurity people. If you are the one who has to decide, fund it and answer for it, almost none of it is written for you. That is the gap we work in, and it is why you will not find a threat statistic at the top of this page.
Most of the organisations we work with are one of three. The business owner who knows something needs doing and cannot yet put words to it. The organisation with an IT team doing its best and no security leadership above it. And the one that has just lost its security leader and is weighing up what to do instead.
The third is the sharpest, because it is specific, recent and expensive. Right-fit cybersecurity leadership, sized to the business you actually are, is the whole answer to it.
What independence buys you
GreenCyber sells no product, resells nothing and takes no margin from any vendor. If a commercial relationship sits anywhere near your engagement, you are told in writing before the work begins.
That is not a moral position so much as a practical one. Advice you can act on has to be advice you can check the motive of, and most of the industry cannot pass that test.
Senior led, and sized honestly
Every engagement is senior. We don't price in the senior leader then switch in the grads. Where your own team can do part of the work, they do it and it gets reviewed, which costs you less than having it written for you.
Engagements are sized to the organisation in front of us. A twelve person firm and a listed operator do not need the same programme, and pretending otherwise is how consultancies bill for reports nobody reads.
An enterprise programme shrunk to fit a mid sized business is not right sized. It is badly fitting, and everyone in the room knows it.
How we work
Senior led
You are engaging senior people, not a pyramid. Work is not sold by a partner and delivered by a graduate. Where specialist depth is needed it is contracted in, and the individual is named to you before they arrive.
Right sized, not scaled down
An enterprise framework shrunk to fit a mid sized organisation is not a right sized programme. It is a badly fitting one. We design for the organisation in front of us, including the team it can realistically hire.
Board ready by default
Every engagement produces something a board can read and act on. Technical findings that never reach a decision are not findings, they are trivia.
Independent of the tool
No reselling and no margin on product. Where technology is assessed, the recommendation is the one we would make if nobody stood to benefit.
Knowledge transfer, or it did not work
The engagement ends with your people able to run what was built. An advisor you cannot get rid of is not an advisor.

Years in technology and security, in leadership throughout
Live incidents and ransomware attacks led through response
National advisory appointments held today
Products sold, vendors resold, or margin taken from anyone
The person you get
Twenty years, twenty incidents, and two national advisory seats.
Our founder, Adam Green, has led response through more than twenty live incidents and ransomware attacks, and holds appointments with the Australian Computer Society cybersecurity technical advisory board and as a national ambassador for CI-ISAC Australia.
He also speaks and works as a conference MC, which is a separate brand and lives at adamgreen.ai.
I have nothing to sell you. No vendor alignments, no reselling, no margin taken from anyone.
Adam Green, founder
In front of a room
The work is explaining it, out loud, to people who have to act on it.
Keynotes, conference MC work and briefings across the Asia Pacific. The speaking is a separate brand and lives at adamgreen.ai. Nothing here is selling you a talk.
Free resources
Exposure snapshots, a ransomware recovery audit, an AI governance pack and more, at go.greencyber.ai.
Take a lookGiving something back
A defined share of every engagement is directed, at the client's election, to an environmental or a cancer research commitment. The schemes are being finalised, and they will be named.
Start a conversation
Tell us what is prompting this.
A first conversation is a conversation. You get a straight read on whether the work is worth doing at all, including when the answer is that it is not.
- Every enquiry is read by a senior leader. There is no sales sequence behind this form.
- Nothing is resold to you and no vendor introduction is waiting at the other end.
- A first conversation is a conversation, not a scoping call with a proposal attached.
