Strategic Group's Aron Robertson said joining the federal government's Stay Smart Online initiative demonstrated the company's commitment to providing the most up-to-date and trustworthy information and resources available.
Strategic Group is the only Hunter-based IT provider currently listed as a partner.
"Around 59% of Australian organisations have their business interrupted by a cyber breach every month, with small business representing 43% of cybercrime victims," Mr Robertson said.

A key priority is to create a cyber smart nation and for Australians to have cyber security skills and knowledge to thrive in the digital age.
It's estimated one in five Australians have experienced identity theft.
