In today's world of rising global threats and changing security challenges, protecting national interests is essential. In the defence sector, safeguarding sensitive data and critical assets is critical. The Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) provides a comprehensive security system to protect defence-related information and resources.
The Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) is a security framework created by the Australian Government to protect defence-related information and assets. It outlines security standards and guidelines for organisations engaged in defence activities, such as contractors, suppliers, and service providers. DISP's goal is to secure sensitive data, reduce security risks, and strengthen the defence industry's resilience against both internal and external threats.
DISP supports Australian businesses in addressing risks associated with providing services, products, or capabilities to the Australian Defence Organisation.
The Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) sets high standards across physical, personnel, information, and cyber security, allowing businesses to demonstrate their trustworthiness through DISP Membership.
The DISP features four membership levels within each category, corresponding to information access based on security classifications: OFFICIAL, OFFICIAL: Sensitive, PROTECTED, SECRET, and TOP SECRET.
