The full answer
Australian organisations handling personal information are bound by the Privacy Act and its Australian Privacy Principles, and public sector buyers typically ask for IRAP-assessed hosting, alignment with the Essential Eight and accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA. Creuto captures these in discovery as explicit requirements with evidence attached to each.
In practice that means hosting in Australian AWS, Azure or Google Cloud regions, data minimisation and retention rules built into the data model, encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access control, audit logs, multi-factor authentication, and patching and backup practices that map to Essential Eight strategies, with penetration testing before launch.
Accessibility is designed in rather than audited later. Interfaces are built to WCAG 2.2 AA with keyboard navigation, screen reader support, contrast and focus handling, and tested manually as well as with tools. This matters for government, health and education clients in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney in particular.
