The South Australian Cyber Security Framework (SACSF) has been developed to standardise and guide the approach for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving the cyber security posture of SA Government agencies.
For the purposes of this document, cyber security refers to the measures relating to the confidentiality, availability and integrity of information that is processed, stored and communicated by electronic or similar means.
The SACSF is a risk-based framework developed to assist with preserving the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information by applying risk management processes, with increasing control measures to be implemented based on increased likelihood or impact. A risk-based approach to cyber security management provides flexibility for an agency to implement controls based on its own risk profile, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach.
The SACSF is supported by a suite of documentation, guidance and templates to help an agency implement the framework based on their risk profile and in line with their existing risk management framework.
The SACSF is maintained by Cyber Security, Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), in the Department of the Premier and Cabinet (DPC) is a subordinate document to the South Australian Protective Security Framework (SAPSF).
