Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) Membership
In April 2020 the Australian Department of Defence launched its updated Defence Industry Security Program (DISP). The new program opens up opportunities for businesses to participate in Defence contracts, whilst improving security practices to protect sensitive and classified information.
Magnitude 8 assists Australian businesses to be Defence-ready by achieving Entry Level DISP membership requirements outlined below.
Information and Cyber Security
Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) Essential Eight
To achieve DISP membership, you need to implement the Top 4 strategies from the Essential Eight. We provide solutions to help you achieve these requirements:
Application Patching
Restricted Admin Privileges
Operating System Patching
NIST SP 800-171 (US ITAR Requirement)
You can also meet your cyber security requirements by following the standards recommended in NIST SP 800-171. This is required if your organisation handles Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as part of a US Defence contract. We can perform an assessment and provide guidance to help you meet this requirement or the newer Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC).
Governance
We can help you to meet governance requirements by:
Developing Security Policies and Plans
Delivering your Annual Security Awareness Training
Implementing an Insider Threat Program
