Program Overview: What is APRA CPS 234 Information Security Compliance?
The APRA CPS 234 Information Security Compliance training is a 24-hour instructor-led program for security, risk, and compliance teams in APRA-regulated entities. It covers the standard's full scope: foundations and scope, security governance, controls and control testing, incident response and notification, and third-party security. Every concept is mapped to the learner's own entity and its information assets.
Training runs across six modules that pair instructor explanation with guided labs on real compliance artifacts. Learners design controls commensurate with asset criticality, run systematic control testing, draft APRA notification reports against the 72-hour and 10-business-day windows, and assess third-party security capability. Coaches review each artifact and give structured feedback before the next stage. The program closes with a six-hour audit readiness capstone lab building a complete compliance evidence pack for a mock entity.
Many regulated entities treat CPS 234 as paperwork and discover the gaps only after a breach or APRA review. Untested controls, missed notification deadlines, and unmonitored third parties turn incidents into enforcement actions. This program trains teams to operationalize the standard instead: clear accountability, independent control testing, timely notification, and continuous third-party monitoring.
They build the evidence pack before the auditor asks for it: control design, testing, notification procedures. Audit season becomes a review, not a scramble.
Designed for financial services teams, the program strengthens the capability CPS 234 demands: clear roles, tested controls, robust incident response, and assurance over third parties. Content adapts to your entity type, asset landscape, and existing governance framework. Teams leave with a compliance evidence pack they built in the labs: asset classifications, control test plans, incident notification drafts, and third-party review checklists.
