Challenge
As MYOB scaled, the team recognized the need to unify data across disparate tools to maintain a seamless, holistic view of its rapidly growing cloud infrastructure.
To keep pace with fast-moving cloud environments, MYOB sought to streamline a high volume of security signals into prioritized, actionable insights for engineering teams.
With 400+ developers frequently shipping updates, MYOB aimed to evolve its security model into a collaborative capability that could match and further accelerate their high pace of delivery.
Solution
MYOB established a single source of truth across all cloud environments, creating a unified standard for configuration and visibility.
By leveraging Wiz’s security graph, MYOB moved beyond raw alerts to deliver high-context insights based on actual risk exposure, ensuring teams remained focused on the most impactful work.
With an intuitive interface, developers gained the ability to monitor their own security posture and remediate issues independently, fostering a culture of ownership and accountability.

Advancing Security in a Growing Cloud Estate
MYOB is a leading cloud-based business management solution that has been helping more Australian and New Zealand businesses start, survive, and succeed for more than three decades. As the company continues to modernise its technology stack and expand its product portfolio, its cloud security requirements grew in sophistication.
With a diverse multi-cloud footprint and hundreds of developers shipping updates, MYOB sought a security foundation capable of scaling alongside its ambitions.
Rather than relying on traditional security silos, MYOB’s leadership recognized an opportunity to integrate security directly into the engineering workflow.
We wanted to provide our teams with a central, clear perspective. As we scaled across different tools and cloud providers, our goal was to make prioritization as simple and efficient as possible for our engineers.

A Unified Platform Built for Engineering Speed
MYOB selected Wiz for its ability to provide immediate visibility while empowering both security and engineering teams. The decision reflected a core principle of MYOB’s program: transforming security into an engineering capability.
Implementation was seamless. Within 30 minutes of connecting, MYOB gained a comprehensive view of risks, configurations, and inventory across environments. This allowed the organization to shift from managing raw data to acting on meaningful, contextual insights.
Wiz’s security graph translated complex cloud relationships into clear, actionable intelligence that resonated with engineers and managers alike.
We wanted engineers to be the primary users, and Wiz delivered on that.

This self-service approach proved transformative. By consolidating tooling and enabling developers to understand and remediate issues independently, MYOB reduced bottlenecks and improved resolution speed.
Teams could view their security posture, understand the surrounding risk context, and take action without waiting for centralized security teams to investigate, triage, and assign work.
Cultivating a Proactive Security Culture
To drive engagement, MYOB hosted an internal Capture the Flag event, turning security training into a collaborative challenge. Engineers became inspired to take an active role in strengthening their cloud environments.
The results were significant: 70% of engineering staff now log into Wiz weekly.
The shared visibility and risk context also improved collaboration between security and engineering teams. With less back-and-forth, engineers could see the full context around an issue and select the appropriate remediation strategy for their product — without waiting for additional security guidance.
This autonomy accelerated time to resolution while enhancing security expertise across the engineering organization.
From Operational Success to Strategic Growth
The transformation extended beyond operational metrics. With clearer visibility and stronger prioritization, MYOB shifted from reactive alert management to a more proactive security posture.
The security team enabled more productive conversations with technology leadership, moving from reactive firefighting discussions to measured, strategic planning.
Wiz has enabled better conversations with technology leadership. We can take a more measured, proactive approach.

The team could now demonstrate value through measurable risk reduction, improved engineering efficiency, and stronger business alignment.
The unified platform also reduced tool sprawl, simplifying workflows and lowering cognitive overhead. Teams no longer needed to navigate multiple systems or manually correlate data across tools. Everything lived in one place, supported by consistent interfaces and workflows.
This consolidation freed time and mental energy that teams could redirect toward higher-value security initiatives.
A Partnership Built for the Long Term
As MYOB continues its AI transformation and product evolution, Wiz provides a scalable foundation for secure innovation.
By prioritizing developer experience and establishing unified visibility across environments, MYOB has transformed security into a true business enabler ready to support its next phase of growth.
