Sectors

Four kinds of organisation, one approach

The frameworks differ by sector. The method does not: work out what applies, close the gaps, build the evidence, keep it current.

Who we help

Government suppliers

Commonwealth and state agencies expect their suppliers to demonstrate security controls, not describe them. Contracts and panels reference the Information Security Manual (ISM), the Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF) and the Essential Eight, and cloud and managed-service providers are increasingly asked for an IRAP assessment before an agency will put its data on their platform.

We support suppliers to work out which requirements apply, map them to controls they already run, close the gaps and assemble the evidence. For those who need it, we prepare the system for an independent IRAP assessment.

Who we help

Employment and community services

Employment services, disability employment and related providers must hold Right Fit For Risk (RFFR) accreditation, built on ISO/IEC 27001 and the Essential Eight, and keep it through surveillance audits, new subcontractors and programme changes. Community services providers more broadly handle sensitive personal information under the Privacy Act and funding-body requirements.

We support providers to gain accreditation, to extend it across subcontractors, and, through Managed RFFR, to keep it without the work landing on one busy staff member.

Who we help

Defence industry

Suppliers to Defence and to the primes face requirements from the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP), the Essential Eight and, increasingly, ISO/IEC 27001 as a baseline that primes recognise. Security clearances, controlled information and export controls add layers that general IT security does not cover.

We support defence-industry suppliers to achieve DISP membership readiness, lift Essential Eight maturity, and run an ISMS that satisfies both Defence and commercial customers from one set of evidence.

Who we help

Regulated and growing businesses

Financial services, health, legal, technology and professional-services firms are asked for security evidence by clients, insurers and regulators long before they can justify a full-time security team. A client questionnaire, a cyber insurance renewal or an enterprise tender is usually the trigger.

We support growing businesses with ISO/IEC 27001 certification to answer those questions once, and with virtual CISO and CTO engagements that give them senior leadership for a set number of days a month.

Does your sector have a requirement we have not listed?

Send it through. If it is a security, privacy or management-system standard, we have almost certainly worked to it.
