Governance and auditability part of everyday operations
Modern security frameworks increasingly require organisations to demonstrate control and oversight of scripts, macros, and other executable content. Macrosine helps establish a consistent macro governance process through assessment, digital code signing, detailed logging, and comprehensive audit trails. This provides clear evidence for internal audits, regulatory reporting, and security assurance activities.
Rather than blocking macros and disrupting business processes, organisations can continue to leverage trusted automation while reducing risk.
By replacing manual reviews with a repeatable and auditable workflow, Macrosine reduces operational overhead and helps security and compliance teams maintain control at scale.
For Australian organisations, Macrosine can support Essential Eight compliance initiatives, including the macro controls required to achieve Maturity Level 3.
Australia: Supports alignment with frameworks such as Essential Eight, PSPF, AESCSF, APRA CPS 234, ADHA controls, ISO 27001 and NIST.
New Zealand: Supports alignment with NZISM, NIST and ISO 27001 security controls through automated macro assessment, digital signing and auditability.
Essential Eight Maturity Level 3 for Office macros can be achieved in a matter of days with a combination of Macrosine and the associated Windows policy settings. Macrosine provides the technical capability for rapidly assessing and applying digital signatures to macro-enabled files, and Windows device controls ensure that only macros with a digital signature can run.
By using Macrosine for Essential Eight compliance, the business impact and effort required to achieve and maintain Maturity Level 3 is significantly reduced. People within your business will no longer require security specialists to manually assess lines and lines of technical code. To support the transition and implementation of the necessary security controls, Macrosine includes detailed documentation that can be included for training and communication purposes and the product is so intuitive to use that enabling users can be done in a matter of minutes.
With Macrosine you can retain all of the productivity of Microsoft Office macros, achieve the highest possible security maturity level, ensure the lowest business impact, and align your business with the advice set forth in the Essential Eight.
