About SIFT


SIFT, founded in 2000, is a leading independant Australian information security consulting, intelligence and training firm. We specialise in the delivery of independent advice, reviews and recommendations to the senior management of large, highly-regulated organisations.

Outside of the delivery of expert advice to our clients, our consultants and associates are actively involved in working groups, interest groups, policy support and standards development bodies in information security and privacy, at the State, National, and International level.

Our Domestic & International Speaking Experience


SIFT consultants frequently speak both domestically and internationally and provide expert comment and analysis of current information security issues.

Due to the number of speaking requests, SIFT consultants do not pay to speak at conference or workshop events. We firmly believe in contributing to the growth and understanding of the industry and as such we are happy to speak pro bono in most situations.
