The Beginning
David (then 22) founded Insane Technologies after obtaining a contract to support a Gold Coast superannuation administration firm. The firm had been plagued with viruses and David was engaged to clean the environment and implement new servers and security.
Village Roadshow Studios
Through a series of projects for Village Roadshow Theme Parks, Insane Technologies was contracted to build a web portal for then Movie World Studios. This engagement turned into the development of our proprietary Network Access Control (NAC) solution "NetShepherd" - which allowed studio administration to securely manage the network for film & tv productions working out of the facility.
Cyber Security Awareness
David and the team started running workshops for clients, business owners and managers to educate them on emerging cyber threats.
Australian Computer Society
Insane Technologies won an award by the Australian Computer Society for the category of "Small Teams Skills Transformation" for introducing information security and privacy law training into our career development program - providing our SMB clients with skilled IT professionals who understood privacy and security.
Cyber Insurance Industry
As a by-product of the exposure created by the Australian Computer Society award, we were introduced to the cyber insurance industry. This lead to an engagement by a major UK based insurer to provider cyber incident response services to their Australian insured as part of a "follow the sun" panel of cyber experts.
Acquired by CFC Underwriting
CFC Underwriting, a global leader in cyber insurance, acquired Insane Technologies on the 1st of April 2021 to form part of their global Cyber Incident Response & Managed Cyber Security Services team.
