The Story Behind the Name "Aphore"

At Aphore, the journey to find the right name wasn’t a straightforward one—it was a year-long pursuit to capture the essence of who we are and what we stand for. We didn’t rush the process. In fact, we spent over a year speaking to anyone and everyone—global brand experts, business leaders, technologists, academics, and even family—just to land on the perfect name that reflects our mission.
We wanted a name that would resonate deeply, not only with us but with the businesses and people we aim to serve. It couldn’t be just another corporate or tech buzzword. It had to represent the responsibility we carry and the trust we build, while also being timeless, simple, and full of meaning.
The result? Aphore.
The name is inspired by the Greek word “Aphoros”, meaning guarded or protected. But that’s just the surface. The choice of Aphore wasn’t about conjuring images of fortresses or shields—it’s about the invisible strength that allows businesses to operate with confidence. The kind of strength that you don’t always see but always rely on. It’s about creating a foundation for success, not simply guarding against threats.
In ancient Greek society, the word “Phore” refers to a bearer, someone who carries something vital. For us, it’s about carrying the responsibility of ensuring that businesses, big or small, can move forward without hesitation, knowing they have the right support behind them.
Finding this name was not easy. Along the way, we discarded countless ideas that felt too restrictive or overused. We wanted to avoid the tired clichés that dominate the cybersecurity and technology landscape. We didn’t want to be another brand that talks about shields or digital fortresses.
Aphore needed to be different—a name that reflects how we empower people and organisations to do more, grow more, and thrive, while trusting that they’re in capable hands.
In the end, Aphore represents the strength that comes from adaptability, responsibility, and trust. It’s about enabling progress without fear, allowing businesses to innovate, grow, and push boundaries. It’s a name that speaks to our dedication to being the trusted partner that businesses can lean on as they navigate an ever-changing world.
So, after speaking with some of the brightest minds around the world, we found the name that truly reflects who we are. And whether it’s in the boardroom, on the frontline of innovation, or even across the table with family, Aphore is about enabling what’s next—safely, confidently, and always with the future in mind.

Who We Are and What We Do:

Although the name Aphore may be new, the roots of our company run deep. Our journey began in 2011 in a small office on Queen Street in Melbourne, where a handful of passionate individuals set out to create something far greater than just another IT service provider. Over the years, we evolved, rebranding and renaming ourselves in 2017, and today we stand as a global force—comprising several companies, each distinct in its operations, but all united under one powerful brand: Aphore.

We operate across three high-level areas—Cybersecurity, Managed Services, and Training—offering world-class technological solutions designed to protect, empower, and inspire businesses. We understand that, in today’s complex and interconnected world, companies need more than just reactive services; they need a trusted partner who will be with them every step of the way. That’s who we are—guardians of progress, enablers of growth.

Our journey from a small office in Melbourne to a global presence has been one of dedication, adaptability, and relentless pursuit of excellence. Our headquarters remain in Melbourne, but today, we have offices across Australia, New Zealand, the USA, the Philippines, and of course, London, United Kingdom. Each location strengthens our mission of providing businesses, big and small, with the support they need to operate confidently and securely.

At Aphore, we don’t just offer services—we offer peace of mind. We’re here to ensure that businesses can move forward without fear, innovate without hesitation, and trust that they have the security and guidance to succeed in a rapidly changing world.
