CPS 234, simplified
Vanta breaks CPS 234 into clear, actionable steps, covering information security risk, access, resilience, and incident response, helping you identify what’s required, and what to do next.
Automated tests that monitor controls hourly, so you stay compliant every day—not just at audit time.
Integrations with your cloud, code, identity, and device tools for a complete, automated view of compliance.
No more manual tracking
Vanta continuously collects evidence across your cloud, identity, devices, people systems, and vendors, giving you real-time visibility into CPS 234 compliance without spreadsheets or manual follow-ups.
Full visibility
APRA expects notification in the event of a material information security control weakness. Continuous monitoring shows you the moment controls change to failing, giving you time to prepare your notification.

FAQ
Yes. Vanta provides APAC-based compliance experts, can connect you with audit partners who understand CPS 234 requirements, and a locally based Customer Success team in Australia to guide you through CPS 234 end to end and align with regional audit expectations.
Yes. Vanta supports 35+ frameworks with cross-mapped controls and evidence, so you can manage CPS 234, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and more in one platform, without duplicating work.
Vanta has designed controls by working directly with auditors who deeply understand CPS 234 and provides an auditor portal and API so evidence is structured, traceable, and mapped to CPS 234 and CPG 234 expectations. Final acceptance always rests with the auditor.
All APRA-regulated entities—including ADIs, insurers, and RSE licensees—must comply with CPS 234. If you provide services to an APRA-regulated entity and manage or access its information assets, the entity may require you to implement security controls that stem from CPS 234, because CPS 234 applies to the regulated entity’s information assets even when they are handled by third parties.
Key requirements include board accountability, a defined information security capability, asset identification and classification, preventative and detective measures, incident management and notification, regular testing, internal audit, and ongoing third-party risk oversight.
Timelines vary based on scope and maturity. Many customers reach initial operating compliance in weeks to a few months, with Vanta’s automation and pre-built content significantly reducing manual effort compared to traditional approaches.
