SOCI Act Compliance & Critical Infrastructure Security for Australian Operators
Australia's Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) Act now covers 11 sectors and 22 asset classes — and with CIRMP reporting obligations active and CISC audits underway, the compliance window is closing. ASE Tech partners with energy, water, transport, and telecommunications operators across Australia to implement proactive cybersecurity frameworks aligned with the SOCI Act, AESCSF, and CIRMP requirements.
