About
I’m Mia Wexford, an IT security professional from Australia, specialising in VPN technologies and digital privacy solutions. I graduated from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) with a degree in Information Technology, which gave me a strong foundation in networks, cybersecurity, and systems architecture.
Over the past fifteen years, I’ve built hands-on experience across multiple sectors of IT security:
2008–2012: As a Network Administrator and Security Analyst at a leading Australian telecommunications company, I gained deep insight into ISP operations, network security, and data protection strategies.
2012–2016: I worked as an IT Security Consultant for small and medium businesses throughout Melbourne, implementing security measures, conducting vulnerability assessments, and training staff to strengthen their cybersecurity practices.
2016–Present: I operate as an independent Security Consultant and Educator, focusing on VPN solutions and online privacy for individuals, families, and small organisations. My work includes one-on-one consultations, security audits, content creation, and ongoing research into emerging threats and solutions.
Beyond technical work, I am passionate about digital rights and privacy advocacy in Australia. I have contributed to public consultations on data retention laws, participated in cybersecurity forums, and collaborated with privacy-focused organisations to promote stronger protections for everyday internet users.
My mission is to make advanced online security accessible, practical, and reliable, so everyone can browse the internet safely and confidently.
