MQ Incubator Lunch & Learn | On Your Mark – Ready – Set – Go! The Cybersecurity Dilemma for Startups and Scaleups

Learn what cybersecurity actually matters for early stage companies from a founder who's spent 20 years helping startups protect their work without killing momentum.

Ajay Unni, who's advised startups on cyber risk for over 20 years and sat on the NSW Government's Cyber Security Task Force, runs through what actually matters when you're bootstrapped and moving fast. You'll walk through the minimum security foundations every early-stage company needs, when DIY stops working, and how to make outsourcing decisions that won't crater your runway. The session uses real-world examples and leaves time for open Q&A, so you can ask about your specific situation. Whether you're pre-launch or scaling, you'll leave with a clearer sense of what security actually protects your IP without becoming a full-time job.
