Our Certifications
We prove IT.
Anyone can say they take security and service seriously. We back it with independent certifications and top-tier partner accreditations you can verify for yourself.
SMB1001 Gold Certified
Cyber security is the number one risk facing NZ businesses – and increasingly, your insurers, suppliers and customers want proof you’re protected, not promises. IT Live is certified to SMB1001:2026 Level 3 (Gold), the international cyber security standard built for small and medium business.
What it means for you: the company looking after your systems has been independently assessed across 27 security controls – from MFA and backups to incident response. When your insurer or a big customer asks “is your IT provider secure?”, the answer is a certificate, not a shrug. And we can take your business through the same certification.
Microsoft Solutions Partner – Security
Your business runs on Microsoft 365 – email, files, Teams, identity. Microsoft Solutions Partner for Security is not a badge you can buy: it requires proven customer security outcomes, certified engineers and demonstrated performance across identity, device and data protection.
What it means for you: the people configuring your MFA, Conditional Access and threat protection are recognised by Microsoft itself as being at the pointy end of best practice – so your M365 environment is set up the way Microsoft’s own security team would want it.
One NZ Principal Partner
Connectivity is the heartbeat of a modern business – when mobile or internet goes down, everything stops. As a One NZ Principal Partner, IT Live sits in the top tier of One NZ’s partner programme, with direct access to their business teams, priority support channels and partner-only pricing.
What it means for you: one call to us covers your mobile fleet, broadband and voice – with the buying power and escalation paths of a Principal Partner behind it. No waiting in the consumer queue when something matters.
