ISO 27001 and Right Fit for Risk

Targeted support to achieve ISO 27001 certification for RFFR

With the Federal Government’s Right Fit for Risk (RFFR) initiative providers of employment skills, training and disability employment services will be required to hold ISO 27001 certification to ensure government owned data is safely held on provider systems.

Organisational Function Packages

If you need information security assistance for your organisational division, select from the following function packages. Fixed-pricing options are available for most packages.

IT

We help your IT division to correctly identify the full range of information assets they support. We assist you with understanding the complete risk landscape IT faces and how to find the right mix of technical and procedural solutions to address data threats. We document your cyber security risk register with a realistic snapshot of where information security in IT currently is, and what it will realistically accomplish within the accreditation timeframes.

Project Management

We work with your Project Management team to understand the requirements of the ISMS. We help identify project milestones, develop communication strategies, and prioritise your implementation efforts to ensure your RFFR ISMS accreditation is comprehensive and achived on time.

It’s not about the documents produced.
It is about the journey we both take to make every effort count.

Whole of Enterprise Approach

Security is only effective when it embraces the totality of an organisation’s activities.

We don’t focus on technology-based solutions – we develop organisational capabilities to address genuine security challenges.

Vital Advisory work in partnership with your business to build a complete understanding of your security requirements, capabilities and the change needed to accomplish your security goals.

Our methodology for a typical engagement takes clients through four stages:

1

+ Understand the Business
Firstly we build a detailed understanding of your business: strategic goals; business unit functions; information assets under management; key systems and services; stakeholders; compliance obligations; and more.

2

+ Understand the Risks
With a clear analysis of your business in place, we leverage this to identify information security risks you face, who has responsibility, and what impacts may befall your business goals. This creates a prioritised understanding of risk and where security capability improvements can protect your interests.

3

+ Build Your Security Strategy
We develop the Information Security Management System to uplift your security processes. Through use of our unique “One Page” documentation approach we ensure security methods and requirements are easily understood and adopted by business teams to become an active part of your BAU.

4

+ Put Security Practice into Operation
Ongoing security improvement underpins successful business. We put in place the elements to make security a core component of business operations, which strengthen over time. These include all the lifecycle elements of an effective Information Security Management System.

By applying these four strategies, we ensure that the totality of your information security requirements are identified, addressed, and managed efficiently. Security aligns with your core business goals and becomes a tool to win new business, not remain a cost and complexity burden.
