Secure Your Systems. Demonstrate Government-Grade Compliance.

Powerdata Group Consulting provides end-to-end IRAP advisory and assessment services to help organisations align with the Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM) and demonstrate a strong, independently validated security posture.

What is IRAP?

The Infosec Registered Assessors Program (IRAP), delivered by the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), provides independent cyber security assessment services against the ISM—Australia’s de facto cyber security standard with over 700 controls.

Our Services

Statement of Applicability (SoA) development including ISM control mapping and gap analysis. 

Engagement of independent IRAP assessors with no conflicts of interest. 

End-to-end coordination of the IRAP assessment and reporting process.

    What We Need?

    To provide an accurate quotation, we require a high-level view of your target architecture including hosting model, system scope, data classification and key integrations.

    Why IRAP Matters?

    An IRAP assessment demonstrates compliance with Australian Government security standards, independent validation of your security posture, and readiness to handle sensitive or government data.

    IRAP vs Other Standards

    Unlike ISO 27001 or NIST, IRAP is tailored to Australian Government requirements and aligned with the ASD ISM. It goes beyond frameworks by providing an independent assessment of your security controls and readiness.

    Why Choose Us?

    We combine technical expertise with real-world experience to guide you through IRAP efficiently. Our approach focuses on reducing complexity, prioritising risks, and helping you achieve compliance with minimal disruption.

    Identify gaps before formal assessment

    Prepare for IRAP with confidence through a structured readiness assessment. We evaluate your current security posture against the ASD Information Security Manual (ISM), identifying control gaps, risks, and priority actions. This ensures your organisation is fully prepared before engaging an IRAP assessor, reducing delays, costs, and compliance risk.

    Align your environment with ISM requirements

    Our experts map your existing security controls against ISM requirements and Essential Eight maturity levels. We deliver a clear, actionable gap analysis that highlights where improvements are needed and how to achieve compliance. This process provides a practical roadmap to strengthen your cyber security posture and meet government expectations.

    End-to-end coordination and expert guidance

    We manage the complete IRAP assessment process, from documentation preparation to coordinating independent IRAP assessors. Our team ensures your systems, architecture, and policies are aligned with compliance requirements, while providing audit-ready evidence and reporting to support successful accreditation outcomes.

    Strengthen controls and achieve compliance faster

    Address identified gaps with targeted remediation support tailored to your environment. We work alongside your team to implement security controls, improve governance, and enhance system architecture. The result is a stronger, more resilient security framework that meets IRAP requirements and supports long-term compliance.
