DISP as a Service in 12 weeks
Australian university research team
Challenge: Stand up a DISP-aligned secure environment for defence-adjacent research, covering Essential Eight maturity level 2 controls, PSPF and DSPF policies and ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 management systems, without adding load to a small research and IT team.
Solution: ORCA Opti delivered DISP as a Service end to end: a managed Essential Eight maturity level 2 environment with controls deployed and tested automatically, SOPs and policies aligned to PSPF and DSPF, and ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 management systems at the core. Controls and evidence were assembled inside ORCA, ready for DISP assessment, with very little load on the customer's research and IT teams.
It was a priority for the organisation to do Defence and Commonwealth Government research projects. We needed an environment for under 10 people and couldn't wait for the network uplift project to complete. This solution was cost-effective and fast.(Name withheld), Research Department
