Independent auditors confirm CITEC's security commitment
1 August 2006
CITEC's continued commitment to building and reinforcing a culture of security and quality improvement has again been recognised by independent auditors SAI Global.
Rigorous audits held during November 2005 and May 2006 across CITEC’s business offices – Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra – resulted in SAI Global recommending continuing certification for CITEC’s Information Security Management (AS/NZS 7799.2:2003) and Quality Management Systems (AS/NZS ISO 9001:2000).
The continuing certification reflects a concerted effort to strengthen and reinforce staff awareness of IT-security related issues, and ensure best practices in security are followed across the organisation.
CITEC’s Security Manager, John Kidston said the certification was imperative for maintaining and gaining new business.
“Security has become a high priority for our clients and external certification is an important way we can demonstrate to clients that CITEC can be trusted to provide the level of security they require.”
