Case Study: State Library of New South Wales accelerates Essential Eight compliance with Devicie

State Library of New South Wales accelerates Essential Eight compliance

The State Library of New South Wales faced the challenge of meeting mandatory Essential Eight cybersecurity compliance with a limited IT team. Their manual processes for application and operating system patching were time-consuming and inconsistent, a problem exacerbated by a rapid shift to remote work. This made achieving their required Maturity Level Two compliance a significant hurdle.

The library implemented Devicie to automate its security and device management on Intune. This solution provided consistent, automated application updates and OS patching, full visibility over their device fleet, and an instant security uplift with over 300 automated controls. As a result, the library achieved its Essential Eight compliance goals, significantly reduced manual workload for its IT staff, and improved its overall security posture, with Devicie accomplishing in less than a month what would have taken the internal team over a year.
