Australia DSPF · Defence Security Principles Framework · Evidence & Implementation Kit
Meet the Defence Security Principles Framework, without turning the principles into controls yourself.
Every DSPF principle handed to you as an adopt-ready control, across governance, personnel, physical and information and ICT security, with security in contracts and the assurance and reporting duties, and the evidence a Defence assessor examines.
Assurance-ready in a weekend, not a quarter.

Here is the honest situation. The Defence Security Principles Framework sets how Defence people, information and assets are protected, on a principles-and-controls basis with control effectiveness levels applied by risk. It spans security governance and officers, personnel security clearances and ongoing suitability, physical security zones and accredited areas, information handling by classification and accredited ICT aligned to the Information Security Manual and Essential Eight, security in projects and contracts including foreign involvement, and incident reporting and assurance. Meeting these and evidencing them for a Defence assessment is real work, and an entity handling classified information on unaccredited systems or in unaccredited areas is exactly where entities fall short.

This Kit removes the guesswork. It is every DSPF principle written as an adopt-ready control you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence a Defence assessor examines.

What you get, the moment you buy

18
Principles as adopt-ready controls. Every DSPF principle, across governance, personnel, physical and information and ICT security, with security in contracts and assurance and reporting, written so you personalize and apply it.
18
Evidence-they-examine checklists. For each control, exactly what a Defence assessor examines, plus where entities fall short, so you close the gap first.
1
Defence Security Control Matrix, pre-built. Every principle in a working spreadsheet, ready to record status, owner and evidence location.
1
Gap & Readiness Assessment. Score each principle and the workbook returns your readiness as a single percentage, and exactly what to fix next.

Grounded in the Defence Security Principles Framework, with the security governance and officers, the control effectiveness levels, personnel clearances, physical security zones and accreditation, information and ICT security aligned to the Information Security Manual and Essential Eight, and the assurance and reporting duties called out. Editable Word and Excel files.

Accreditation and clearances are what a Defence assessment checks
The DSPF turns on cleared people, accredited ICT systems and certified secure areas handling classified information to the right level. Handling Defence information on an unaccredited system or by an uncleared person is a fast finding. This Kit builds the personnel, physical and ICT accreditation controls with the evidence a Defence assessor asks for.

What one control looks like

This is adopting the DSPF security principles, where protection begins. All 18 are built to this depth.

DSPF-1 Adopt the DSPF security principles PRINCIPLES
Put this control in place

Adopt within [your organization name] the Defence Security Principles Framework principles as the basis for protecting Defence people, information and assets, and translate them into applicable controls proportionate to risk, and document it, so that security is governed by the DSPF principles and an assessor can evaluate the organization against them.

Practitioner note.

The DSPF is a principles-based framework with supporting controls.

Evidence a Defence assessor examines
  • Adoption of the DSPF principles
  • The controls derived from the principles
  • Management endorsement
Common finding they raise: Defence-related security is run ad hoc with no reference to the DSPF principles.

Why this is not another template pack

  • The evidence is the point. A control you cannot evidence is a Defence security finding. This tells you what a Defence assessor examines and where entities fall short, for every principle.
  • Clearances, accreditation and cyber built in. The personnel clearances, the ICT and area accreditation and the Essential Eight cyber controls are written into the controls, the substance the DSPF requires.
  • Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
  • It compounds. The DSPF aligns with the PSPF, the Information Security Manual, the Essential Eight and DISP, so this work feeds your wider government-security program.

Who buys this

Defence entities, contractors and partners protecting Defence people, information and assets, and the security officers, governance and IT leads who own the DSPF. Whether it is a first program or an assurance pass, you save weeks and walk in with the clearances, accreditation and controls structured.

By the end of the weekend you will have
✓  An adopt-ready control for all 18 principles
✓  A completed defence security control matrix
✓  The evidence a Defence assessor examines
✓  Your clearances, accreditation and cyber controls in place
✓  A readiness percentage and a fix list
✓  The unaccredited-system and clearance gaps closed

Common questions

Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.

How does it relate to DISP? The DSPF is the whole-of-Defence security framework; DISP is the industry membership program that implements the industry-facing parts. This kit covers the DSPF principles and notes DISP where relevant.

Does it cover ICT accreditation? Yes. Certifying and accrediting ICT systems that handle Defence information, aligned to the ISM, is built as a control.

Does it cover the Essential Eight? Yes. Implementing the Essential Eight at the required maturity is built as a control.

What if it is not for me? A 30-day money-back guarantee.
