AUKUS has made defense compliance a three-nation obligation

The AUKUS partnership has fundamentally changed defense compliance for Australian, US, and UK companies. Australian defence contractors must now demonstrate compliance with US CMMC and ITAR requirements to participate in AUKUS programs. DFARS cybersecurity clauses flow down through every subcontract tier. Australia's own DTCA controls defence exports, while the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) governs facility clearances. NIST 800-171 sets the cybersecurity baseline that CMMC builds on. And the Security of Critical Infrastructure Act (SOCI) captures defence-adjacent assets.

Most defence SMEs discover they're non-compliant when they lose a contract they thought they'd win. AuditDSS maps every obligation before the tender closes.

That's what AuditDSS does.

We've decomposed the regulations that govern defense & national security

10,473+ defense compliance obligations scored and ready.

Tier 3 Voluntary but Accelerating

From regulation to compliance in four steps

1

Discover

Answer a short questionnaire about your business — what you produce, where you operate, which programs you target. AuditDSS identifies exactly which regulations and obligations apply to you.

2

Assess

See your compliance posture scored across every applicable regulation. Understand where you're covered, where gaps exist, and which gaps carry the highest risk.

3

Generate

Get tailored compliance policies, procedures, and documentation generated for your specific business. Not templates — documents calibrated to your size, operations, and risk profile.

4

Prove

Map your existing evidence — cybersecurity controls, export control records, facility security documentation, supply chain assurance — to specific obligations.

Your existing security evidence is compliance proof — we connect the dots

Cybersecurity Controls

SIEM logs, vulnerability scan results, access control records, and incident response documentation. AuditDSS maps your security controls to CMMC practices, NIST 800-171 requirements, and DFARS cybersecurity clauses — the exact evidence assessors need.

Export Control Records

ITAR licences, DTCA permits, technology access records, and deemed export controls. Direct evidence for ITAR compliance, DTCA obligations, and AUKUS technology sharing requirements.

Facility Security

Security clearance records, facility access logs, visitor management, and physical security assessments. Maps to DISP requirements, NIST 800-171 physical protection controls, and SOCI obligations.

Supply Chain Assurance

Supplier assessments, flow-down compliance records, subcontractor certifications, and SCRM documentation. Evidence for DFARS supply chain requirements, CMMC subcontractor obligations, and Modern Slavery reporting.

You don't need a new GRC platform for each framework. You need one platform that maps your existing security evidence to obligations across CMMC, ITAR, DFARS, DTCA, and NIST simultaneously. That's what AuditDSS does.

Compliance isn't just a cost — it's a competitive advantage

Most compliance platforms tell you what you must do to avoid penalties. AuditDSS also tells you what you gain by complying.

Contract eligibility

CMMC certification is mandatory for DoD contracts — no certification, no contract

AUKUS participation

Cross-reference AU, US, and UK defence requirements for AUKUS program eligibility

Export compliance

ITAR and DTCA violations carry criminal penalties including imprisonment

Subcontractor flow-down

Demonstrate DFARS compliance to prime contractors and win subcontracts

Security clearance

Documented security programs support DISP membership applications

Audit readiness

Pre-mapped evidence for CMMC assessors, ITAR auditors, and DISP reviewers

Built for everyone in the defense compliance chain

Defence Primes & System Integrators

Map compliance across CMMC, ITAR, DFARS, and DTCA simultaneously. See which obligations overlap and where gaps exist across AUKUS partner requirements.

Defence SME Subcontractors

Understand exactly which DFARS clauses flow down to your subcontract tier. CMMC Level 2 certification is mandatory — know your gap before the assessment.

Export Control Officers

ITAR and DTCA obligations mapped to specific evidence requirements. Generate export compliance policies that satisfy both US and Australian regulators.
