Partner webinar with LexisNexis Regulatory Compliance

Is compliance enough? Turning SOCI obligations into cyber resilience.

ON DEMAND

Cyber obligations are increasing. For critical infrastructure organisations in Australia, compliance is essential, but compliance alone may not be enough. The real challenge is in knowing what to do first, where the greatest exposure sits and how to prove that cyber resilience is being managed in practice.

As expectations under the Security of Critical Infrastructure Act (SOCI Act 2018) and related cyber frameworks continue to rise, organisations need a practical way to prioritise obligations, link them to critical controls and demonstrate assurance.  

This webinar explores how to move from obligation tracking to cyber resilience.  Protecht and LexisNexis Regulatory Compliance discuss how organisations can operationalise SOCI obligations, using the Australian Energy Sector Cyber Security Framework (AESCSF) as a practical example, and connecting obligations to controls, reporting and evidence.

What should be done first? 

  • Cyber obligations are expanding, but priorities are not always clear
  • SOCI requirements are raising expectations for critical infrastructure organisations 
  • Regulatory alerts and framework updates need to be monitored, assessed and actioned  
  • Cyber risks often cut across compliance, operations, resilience and executive accountability  
  • Boards and executives need clearer evidence that obligations are being managed effectively.  

Critical infrastructure organisations are under pressure to demonstrate that cyber risks are understood, controls are effective and compliance activity supports resilience. More controls, more alerts and more reporting do not automatically create stronger cyber resilience. In some cases, they create duplication, fragmented accountability and false comfort.  

This webinar explores how you can think more clearly about cyber obligations, critical risk events and the role of controls in demonstrating provable cyber resilience.  

“The question is not just whether an obligation has been recorded. It is whether it has been prioritised, operationalised and evidenced.” - Michael Franklin, Cyber Security Lead, Protecht 

What you’ll learn      

  • Identify where compliance alone may fall short in demonstrating cyber resilience
  • Understand how SOCI obligations can be prioritised in a critical infrastructure context
  • Use a practical cyber risk event, such as an outage or availability failure, to focus action
  • Connect regulatory obligations to preventative, detective and reactive controls
  • Use reporting and assurance to demonstrate compliance and cyber resilience more clearly.
