AvePoint understands that ensuring the security of information and communications technology (ICT) systems is paramount, especially for organisations handling sensitive and/or protected classified information. 

The Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) is an Australian initiative managed by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) and is designed to provide a comprehensive framework for assessing the security of ICT systems. IRAP ensures that systems handling sensitive or classified information meet the rigorous standards set by the Australian government in the Information Security Manual (ISM). This program is crucial for organisations that need to demonstrate their commitment to security and compliance.

The AvePoint Online Services Platform (the AvePoint Confidence Platform) has undergone this assessment, and we are proud to announce that our systems, policies, and security controls meet the requirements for ISM and Essential 8 to a PROTECTED level; this is the highest level attainable for an independent software vendor. 

Achieving PROTECTED level assessment through IRAP is a testament to AvePoint’s unwavering commitment to high-security standards. This significant achievement underscores AvePoint’s dedication to maintaining robust security measures.  

For organisations, particularly those in the public sector, this assessment provides assurance that AvePoint’s solutions are secure and reliable; by meeting the PROTECTED level standards, AvePoint enables organisations to confidently manage and protect their information, knowing they are adhering to the highest security requirements. This not only enhances trust but also supports the seamless operation of critical services.
