About AUS Privacy Kit
We help everyday Australians protect their money and identity with practical, Australian-specific security guidance in plain language.
Why We Exist
In 2024 alone, Australians lost $2 billion to scams and 47% were affected by data breaches. Yet 57% of Australians don't know what to do to protect themselves.
Existing security advice is either too technical (written for IT professionals) or too generic (focused on Americans, not Australians). No one was explaining how to secure MyGov, lock down Australian bank apps, or spot Hi Mum scams in plain language that regular people could understand.
AUS Privacy Kit exists to fill that gap. We create Australian-specific financial security guides that are actionable, comprehensive, and written for real people—not cybersecurity experts.
Our Approach
We focus on what actually matters to Australians:
- Australian-specific — MyGov, Medicare, Australian banks, ATO scams, Consumer Data Right
- Plain language — No jargon. If a 70-year-old can't follow it, we rewrite it
- Action-oriented — Step-by-step checklists, not theory
- Comprehensive — Everything you need in one place, not scattered across 50 websites
- Updated regularly — Security settings change; we keep our guides current
