Elastic has achieved a significant milestone by completing the Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) assessment at the Protected Level for Elastic Cloud, enhancing its support for Australian public sector and critical infrastructure clients. IRAP, developed by the Australian Cyber Security Centre, is a stringent framework that ensures cloud services meet high security standards for handling sensitive data. By attaining this certification, Elastic reinforces its commitment to cybersecurity and trust, demonstrating that its platform meets top-tier security requirements and is capable of securely managing sensitive information for diverse entities, including government agencies and private enterprises. The assessment covered Elastic Cloud's offerings across major cloud service providers—AWS, GCP, and Azure—in specific Australian regions, with plans to expand coverage as its presence grows. Elastic underscores that maintaining compliance is an ongoing process that requires continuous monitoring and adaptation to evolving security standards, and it invites customers to explore its Trust Center for more information on its compliance certifications.
