KINSHIP Digital Achieves Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) Clearance
Canberra, 11th December 2024 – In a major step forward for secure digital service delivery in the public sector, KINSHIP Digital has qualified as a member to the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP). This accreditation reinforces KINSHIP Digital’s commitment to the highest standards of security, trust, and defence-readiness — ensuring its clients can rely on a partner equipped to handle sensitive information and support national security initiatives.
DISP is administered by the Australian Department of Defence and is a rigorous accreditation program that ensures industry partners meet strict security requirements when working on government and defence projects.
DISP membership assures our clients that KINSHIP Digital meets defence-grade security standards. It allows KINSHIP Digital to clear their employees to handle sensitive data, access classified projects, and support clients with enhanced risk and information management. Our senior executives already hold NV1 security clearances, allowing us to accelerate workforce vetting and deliver at pace for sensitive or time-critical engagements.
“This is a proud milestone for our team,” said Caitlin Aminian, Group Director at KINSHIP Digital. “DISP accreditation strengthens our ability to support the Australian government and defence sector with confidence. It reinforces our longstanding commitment to providing secure, compliant, and innovative digital solutions that help safeguard national interests.”
With DISP clearance in place, KINSHIP Digital is authorised to expand its open-source intelligence (OSINT) and digital services across defence and government, including secure social media management, digital engagement, and risk mitigation strategies tailored to the evolving threat landscape.
This achievement builds on our work with key government clients, including the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the Department of Home Affairs, and other Commonwealth bodies — reaffirming KINSHIP Digital’s role as a trusted partner in secure digital transformation.
