Security & Trust Centre

Trust is not asserted. It is demonstrated.

This is where UniMatter shows its work: the frameworks it aligns to, the controls it operates, the policies that govern it, and the third parties it relies on. Where a control is operational, it is marked operational. Where it is maturing, it is marked maturing. Nothing here is a badge the work has not earned.

01 — Frameworks

What we align to.

Recognised Australian and international frameworks, with an honest status against each. Operational means it runs today; aligned means the controls are operated to the standard and certification is not claimed. Nothing is badged that the work has not earned.

Australian Privacy Principles

Operational

Personal information is handled under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the thirteen Australian Privacy Principles.

Notifiable Data Breaches

Operational

An eligible-data-breach assessment and notification process under Part IIIC of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Australian data residency

Operational

Data is held in Australian jurisdiction by default; any cross-border handling is disclosed and controlled.

ISO/IEC 27001

Aligned

Information-security management aligned to the ISO/IEC 27001 control set. The controls are operated now; certification is not claimed.

ACSC Essential Eight

Maturing

Mitigation strategies from the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s Essential Eight, implemented and maturing towards target levels.

SOC 2

Roadmap

The underlying controls — access, change, and monitoring — operate today. A SOC 2 report is not claimed.


02 — Controls

What we operate.

The control environment behind every engagement. Each control is run as a matter of course, not assembled in advance of an audit.

C—01

Access control

Least-privilege access, multi-factor authentication, and periodic access review. Access follows the need to perform the work, and no further.

C—02

Encryption

Data encrypted in transit and at rest using current, standard algorithms. Keys are managed and rotated.

C—03

Logging & monitoring

Material actions are logged; anomalies are reviewed. The system can account for what was done within it.

C—04

Secure development

Change control, review, and mechanical screening before release. Whatever can be checked by rule is checked by rule.

C—05

Vendor & sub-processor management

Third parties are selected and reviewed against this same posture. A current register is maintained.

C—06

Incident response

Defined detection, containment, and response — including eligible-data-breach assessment under the NDB scheme.

C—07

Data lifecycle

Minimisation at intake, residency by default, defined retention, and controlled disposal at end of life.

C—08

Business continuity

Backups taken and recovery tested, so the work survives the loss of any single component.
