Elastic has announced its plans to undergo an assessment through the Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) at the Protected Level to enhance its Elastic Cloud compliance portfolio, which underscores its commitment to security and integrity. IRAP is a framework used by Australian governments and security-conscious organizations to ensure cloud service providers have appropriate security controls in place, aligning with the Australian Government Information Security Manual. To achieve this certification, Elastic has partnered with CyberCX, an accredited IRAP assessor, to guide them through the meticulous certification process. Elastic is committed to keeping its customers informed about the progress of this initiative, which is aimed at reinforcing trust in its cloud services, although the timing of any new features remains at the company’s discretion.
