Identity Threat Detection & Response in Townsville

Identity Threat Detection & Response in Townsville — built for the defence sector that drives the region. Detection and response engineering focused on identity-driven attacks — credential stuffing, session hijacking, MFA fatigue, lateral movement and privilege escalation in identity providers.

Account-takeover detection median dwell time cut to under 4 hours — across Basalt engagements in the past 12 months.

Common pains in Townsville

  • Account takeover signals buried in SIEM noise
