We begin with a comprehensive gap review to understand your current security posture and determine the required RFFR Milestones (1, 2, and 3) based on your assigned Provider Category (1, 2A, or 2B). Using the results, we create a clear roadmap outlining the specific controls you need to adopt, drawing from ISO/IEC 27001, the Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM), and any additional RFFR-specific requirements.
We conduct a detailed risk assessment and develop a risk treatment plan aligned with both ISO 27001 and ISM control frameworks. This is tailored to your operating model, the sensitivity of the data you handle, and the DEWR contract scope applicable to your organisation. The process includes defining scope and boundaries, selecting controls, and documenting supporting evidence in an audit-ready format.
We prepare your Statement of Applicability (SoA) using the official RFFR-approved template. This covers all relevant ISO 27001 Annex A controls, ISM requirements, and other contractual security obligations. We assist in determining control applicability, providing clear justifications for inclusion or exclusion, and ensuring the documentation meets assessment and audit expectations.
All controls and documentation are implemented directly within your Microsoft 365 and SharePoint environment. Policies, registers, evidence repositories, and approval workflows are built using the tools your team already works with, eliminating the need for additional platforms or complex onboarding.
Your compliance approach is aligned to your RFFR provider category:
Category 1 (higher risk or large caseloads):
Requires a fully implemented ISMS, independent ISO 27001 certification, and a complete SoA aligned to both ISO 27001 and ISM controls.
Category 2A & 2B (lower risk or limited scope):
May allow self-assessment for certain milestones, while still requiring formal risk assessments, SoA alignment, and adherence to ISM and ISO requirements.
We support you through each required RFFR milestone:
Milestone 1: Organisational context, maturity assessment, questionnaires, IT environment review, and scope definition.
Milestone 2: SoA development, ISO 27001 and ISM control design, and documentation prepared for certification or self-assessment.
Milestone 3: Full control implementation, evidence of operational effectiveness, submission of required reports, and audit readiness.
Achieving RFFR accreditation is not the end. Ongoing obligations include periodic surveillance or self-assessments (annually or every three years, depending on category), updates to the SoA following ISM revisions, and changes driven by business growth or new services. We continue to work alongside you to ensure your compliance remains current, effective, and aligned with DEWR’s evolving security expectations.
