How you can protect your business

To ensure your business information within RAM is protected:

• Each person who accesses RAM or online services must have their own Digital ID – for further security set up your Digital ID to the highest identity strength you can achieve.
• Regularly review and maintain your business authorisations in RAM and remove authorisations immediately when they are no longer valid.
• Only authorise others to access government online services they need to use to complete their work.
• Keep your details up to date within RAM.
• Keep the business’s details up to date on the Australian Business Register.
• Check the business History for authorisation and machine credential activities.
• Be wary of potential scams.

Staying safe online is also an important part of protecting your personal and business information.

• Keep your personal information and passwords secure – don't share your password with others and change your passwords regularly.
• Use a strong password or passphrase to protect your account.
• Treat requests for personal information with caution. Never reply to communications with your password or other sensitive information.
• Install anti-virus software on all devices and set the software to automatically check for updates on a daily basis.
• Store your ID documents and personal information securely, don’t store them in emails and be careful who you share these with.
