SECURITY
As a defence-focused management and security consultancy, we can support your business with a range of security services to help you not only meet the requirements of working with Defence, but protect your business from external threats.
Before you read more about our security services, we feel it's important to share with you what sets us apart from other security and defence-focused consultancies, and what you get when you engage our team to support you:
-
Our team has over 150 years of combined Defence and defence industry experience working in Defence Primes, Managing Contractors and SMEs, so we understand the space and what's required. We offer expertise across Air, Land, Sea, Space, Cyber and Defence Estate & Infrastructure, so when we refer to ourselves as Defence Industry Experts, we're not joking.
-
We are a DISP member with security cleared staff. Having been through the process ourselves, as well as being involved in planning the rollout of the new program to industry with the Defence Security & Vetting Service (DS&VS) throughout 2018 and 2019, there's nothing we don't know about the program.
-
On the occasion that we require additional resources to support you with your project, we have a national network of ICT / Cyber Security partners and SCEC consultants. These are vetted, trusted partners that align with our own values, ethics, and morals.
-
Lastly, and most importantly, we take the time to get to know you, and your business. You will receive genuinely tailored support that meets your needs.

DISP
Membership Attainment
The Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) exists to protect the integrity of Australia's Defence capability. Whilst membership is not yet mandatory, it is highly recommended that those wanting to supply to the defence sector obtain a DISP membership.
With an unrivalled understanding of the program, our team are well-positioned to support your business in obtaining DISP membership.
Ongoing Compliance Assurance (OCA™)
There are a variety of continuing obligations that need to be fulfilled in order to maintain compliance once you attain your DISP membership.
Our Ongoing Compliance Assurance (OCA™) Program offers structured, ongoing support, meaning a reduced burden on internal staff capacity, a minimisation of the costs associated with Defence security audits/assurance activities, and most of all, peace of mind.
