Your Licence to Compete

DISP membership tells Defence and prime contractors you can be trusted to deliver. It confirms you meet the Defence Security Principles Framework (DSPF) and have the security measures in place to protect people, facilities, and information.We focus on DISP members below Tier 1 — meaning we don’t manage or certify security clearances for projects requiring top-secret classification, but deliver targeted expertise where it counts most for the majority of defence supply chain contracts.

It strengthens:

  • Personnel security – the right people, with the right access, at the right time
  • Physical security – facilities and assets that are secure and controlled
  • Information security – data that’s protected and managed against security risks, including cyber threats

It’s not a formality. It’s how you meet your security requirements, earn your place, and keep it, in the defence supply chain.

Turning DISP Standards Into Everyday Practice

Obtaining DISP membership is one thing. Meeting your security obligations and keeping compliance without slowing your business down is another, and that’s where we focus.

  • Gap analysis to show exactly where you stand against DISP requirements
  • Remediation across personnel security, physical security, and information security measures
  • Application support with policies, procedures, and evidence that meet Defence standards
  • Ongoing advisory, audits, and training to manage security and sustain compliance

You’ll know what’s required, what’s missing, and the quickest path to close the gap.

Built for the Right Fit

Our DISP expertise is for organisations that:

  • Want to enter or strengthen their position in the defence supply chain
  • Need compliance support for unclassified, protected, or certain classified materials
  • See security, including cyber and information security, as part of their operations, not a once-a-year exercise

If you’re chasing Tier 1 work, you’ll need a different partner. If you’re ready for a focused, practical approach to the security principles framework and DISP levels you operate in, we’ll get you there.

The Path to Lasting Defence Compliance

Our consultative, integrated approach embeds DISP into the way you work, so you stay ready, credible, and competitive in the defence industry security landscape. We’ll help you secure certification, maintain compliance, and position your business for every defence contract ahead.

FAQs

The Answers That Keep You Defence-Ready

1. What are the requirements for compliance with the Defence Industry Security Program?

DISP compliance covers personnel, physical, and information security. The exact DISP membership requirements depend on your tier, but all focus on proving you can protect people, facilities, and data in line with Defence expectations.

2. How can companies ensure they meet defence-related security standards?

Treat compliance as part of daily operations, not a one-off project. Embed the right security measures, test them regularly, and align with frameworks like the Defence Security Principles Framework (DSPF).

3. What steps should be taken to achieve compliance within the defence sector?

Start with a gap analysis against DISP standards, fix the shortfalls, prepare policies and evidence for your application, and keep compliance alive through audits, training, and regular reviews.

4. What resources are available for understanding the Defence Industry Security Program?

The Defence Industry Security Office (DISO) provides official DISP guidelines, but most organisations benefit from specialist guidance to translate the rules into practical steps.

5. How often do I need to review my compliance with defence security regulations?

At least annually, but more often if your operations, people, or contracts change. Regular reviews ensure you stay compliant and ready for audits without last-minute surprises.
