I’m Mia Wexford, an Australian IT expert specialising in cybersecurity, VPN development, and digital privacy. My mission is to help individuals, families, and organisations navigate the internet safely while maintaining control over their data.

EDUCATION

I graduated from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), where I studied Information Technology with a focus on network security and systems architecture. My academic training provided a strong foundation, but it was hands-on experience that truly shaped my expertise in secure network design and privacy-focused solutions.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

2008–2012 – Network Administrator and Security Analyst at a major Australian telecommunications company. I gained deep insight into ISP infrastructure, traffic monitoring, and secure data handling.

2012–2016 – IT Security Consultant for small and medium businesses across Melbourne. I implemented tailored security frameworks, conducted vulnerability assessments, and trained teams in cybersecurity best practices.

2016–Present – Independent Security Consultant and Educator specialising in VPN technologies and privacy solutions. I provide consultations, security audits, educational content, and research into emerging threats and digital resilience strategies.

ADVOCACY & EDUCATION

I actively participate in Australian privacy advocacy, contributing to public consultations on data retention laws, engaging in cybersecurity forums, and collaborating with organisations to promote digital rights. My goal is to make secure internet practices understandable and accessible to everyone.
