Global software company Nuix announced that Nuix Discover has been assessed and approved to store and process data classified as PROTECTED or lower under the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s (ACSC) Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP). Nuix serves large government agencies around the world including intelligence, defence and law enforcement agencies. The IRAP assessment, conducted by an independent auditor, assures Australian government agencies that Nuix’s policies, procedures, people and technology maintain the controls required by the Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM). Nuix Discover has also been certified under ISO/IEC 27001, the international standard for information security management.
“Protecting data from access, abuse or disclosure is fundamental to all that we do, and an intrinsic part of our software development,” said Rolf Krolke, global head of technical services at Nuix. “As we develop more software for the cloud, putting ourselves through the rigour of assessments ensures our systems have the highest security and verifies to Australian Government agencies that Nuix’s privacy and security meet the high standards set out by the ACSC.”
“The IRAP assessment demonstrates Nuix’s ongoing support for our Australian federal, state and law enforcement government customers, especially as they accelerate their adoption of our cloud services,” said Gerard Byrne, Nuix general manager for government and the public sector.

Was the government & ACSC aware of the potential compromise of Mr Krolke himself following his conviction early last year and appearance in court for the same offence last month? Surely this would be a potential issue that Nuix would want to be sure was resolved or addressed appropriately.
