The federal government will mandate the Essential Eight framework for all 98 non-corporate Commonwealth entities (NCCEs).

Prior to 2017, only the top four security controls in objective 1 of the Essential Eight were mandatory, but now compliance across all eight strategies is required to be fully compliant.

To ensure all security controls are maintained at the highest degree, all entities that must comply with this cybersecurity framework will require a comprehensive audit every 5 years commencing from June 2022.
