Corporate Governance
Information assurance
Information is an important asset to the business and, like any other asset, it must be fit for purpose.
Critical to demonstrating information integrity is a process of assurance from the business that clearly demonstrates information is being sourced and managed effectively. The Company recognises these behaviours are important to achieving necessary standards. The key objective of having accurate and reliable information is supported by a risk-based, holistic approach that deals with information assurance as a business critical function. This approach ensures accurate and reliable information is available to those who need it in a timely fashion, thus enabling informed decisions that support and further our objectives.
We manage a broad range of risks to our information. Key elements in managing these risks are education, training and awareness. These initiatives emphasise the importance of information security, the quality of data collection and the affirmation process that supports our business transactions, providing evidence of our decisions and actions. We continue to work collaboratively with a variety of organisations and professional bodies to develop and implement best practice.
