Delivering for Australian government, defence and enterprise
Australia’s only IRAP-assessed (PROTECTED) Mobile Threat Defense solution
CDTS is the only company positioned to deliver it — we manage the IRAP-assessed Oracle Cloud Infrastructure environment it runs in, from Canberra.
IRAP assessment at PROTECTED attaches to the Zimperium Mobile Threat Defense solution and to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. CDTS manages that environment and delivers the capability; CDTS itself holds no IRAP assessment.
A full managed service, with a mobility specialisation
Service desk, cloud, networks, security and procurement — plus the MDM and UEM practice we are best known for.
Managed MDM & UEM
Design, migration and day-to-day operation of Ivanti, Intune, Jamf and SOTI fleets — run as a managed service.

Partner of the Year
Managed MDM & UEM
Mobile device and unified endpoint management is the discipline CDTS is known for. We design, build, migrate and then run your fleet — so enrolment, policy, patching and compliance stop being a project and become a service.
- A single accountable owner for the platform, not a shared-responsibility grey area
- Enrolment that works on day one of a new OS release, not six weeks later
- Compliance reporting you can hand to an assessor without a caveat
- Certificate, token and APNs expiry tracked before it takes the fleet offline
- Ivanti Neurons for MDM
- Ivanti EPMM
- Microsoft Intune
- Jamf Pro
- SOTI MobiControl
- Samsung Knox
Assess · Design · Deploy · Operate
Every engagement starts with a fixed-scope assessment rather than a contract. The written position on your environment is yours either way.
Assess
A written picture of what you actually have, before anybody proposes anything.
Design
A costed, sequenced plan — including the parts you should not do yet.
Deploy
Transition and uplift, staged by cohort, with a way back at every step.
Operate
Steady-state service with named engineers and reporting that drives the next quarter.
Security-cleared people, onshore
Working in Australian government and defence environments is not only a technical question. It is a question of who is in the room, where the work is performed and where the data lives.
CDTS is an Australian-owned company based in Canberra. Our work is performed onshore by Australian-based staff, and we maintain security-cleared personnel for engagements that require cleared resources.
Clearance levels and personnel requirements are confirmed per engagement. Talk to us about the specific requirement in your contract or security plan.
- Australian-owned and Australian-operated, headquartered in Canberra
- Security-cleared personnel available for engagements that require them
- Delivery performed onshore — no offshore service desk or remote administration
- Data residency mapped per service, before you commit to anything
- Vetted, named engineers assigned to your environment rather than a rotating pool
A Canberra MSP that government can put in a security plan
Specialists in mobility and endpoint management, with the local presence, the delivery record and the personnel arrangements that public sector work demands.
MDM & UEM specialists
Mobility and endpoint management is a specialist practice here, not a line item. Ivanti, Intune, Jamf and SOTI in production across Australian government.
Security-cleared resources
Australian-based team with security-cleared personnel available for engagements that require them, and onshore delivery as standard.
Canberra-based
On the ground in Bruce, ACT — in the same city, same time zone and often the same building as the agencies we support.
Proven delivery
Four-time winner of the Ivanti / MobileIron Partner of the Year award, and an Apple Premium Technical Partner.
Indigenous-owned SMB
100% Indigenous-owned Australian small-to-medium business, listed on the BuyICT Digital Marketplace.
One accountable partner
Procurement, deployment, security and support under one agreement — with escalation to the engineers who built it.
Nine sectors, one set of underlying problems
Government, defence, parliamentary, critical infrastructure, health, education, enterprise and not-for-profit.
Federal Government
Commonwealth agencies working to the PSPF and the Essential Eight, with mobile fleets that have to be defensible at audit.
Defence & National Security
Environments where devices go where connectivity does not, and where who touches the system matters as much as what it does.
Parliamentary & Ministerial
High-profile users, high turnover at election cycles, and a very low tolerance for a device that does not just work.
State & Territory Government
Jurisdictional agencies balancing frontline mobility against budgets and standards that rarely move together.
Critical Infrastructure & Utilities
SOCI-regulated operators with dispersed field teams, remote sites and obligations that now have teeth.
Health & Aged Care
Clinical and care environments where shared devices, patient data and shift work all collide.
Education & Research
Large device fleets, seasonal peaks, and research data that is more interesting to an attacker than most people assume.
Enterprise & Commercial
Commercial organisations that want government-grade discipline without a government-sized internal team.
Not-for-Profit & Member Organisations
Lean teams, distributed volunteers and donor data that carries the same obligations as any other personal information.
Software we built because it did not exist
Three secure mobile applications, developed by CDTS and running in Australian government environments today.
The platforms behind our services
We are vendor-aligned, not vendor-owned — the recommendation follows the requirement.
What we have learned running fleets
Working notes from the environments we assess, migrate and operate.
Writing a mobile device policy people will actually follow
Most device policies are unenforceable, unread, or both. A short policy backed by technical controls beats a long one backed by good intentions.
Procurement is where mobile rollouts actually stall
The technical work on a fleet refresh is rarely what delays it. The delay is in how the devices were bought, and it is almost always avoidable.
"Hosted in Australia" is not the same as sovereign
Data residency, data sovereignty and operational sovereignty are three different claims. Most vendor answers only address the first one.
Proudly Indigenous-owned
CDTS Australia is a 100% Indigenous-owned Australian small-to-medium business, based in Canberra on Ngunnawal Country. Listed on the BuyICT Digital Marketplace, we help government meet the objectives of the Indigenous Procurement Policy — while delivering secure, managed technology of the highest standard.
Read our story“We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work, the Ngunnawal people, and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.”
