Regulatory Resilience & Reporting Support

Support for CPS 230, SOCI, and Industry-Wide Disruption Reporting

Navigating Resilience Requirements

Resilience is no longer optional — it’s regulated. From APRA and the Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) Act to sector-specific expectations, regulators are demanding greater visibility, preparedness, and accountability. Escalate Consulting works with you to understand your unique obligations, build practical capability, and ensure you’re ready to respond — and report — when disruption occurs.

Regulatory Resilience & Reporting Support

Resilience Is Now a Board-Level Obligation

Australia’s regulatory landscape is shifting decisively toward proactive, measurable resilience. Expectations are growing across sectors to:

  • Identify critical operations and service dependencies
  • Establish clear tolerance thresholds for disruption
  • Maintain functional continuity during crisis events
  • Report disruption events to regulators and respond with agility
  • Demonstrate continuous improvement through audits, reviews, and testing

Whether you’re regulated by APRA, responsible under the SOCI Act, or operating in a high-risk industry (e.g. health, education, utilities, retail, tech), you are likely subject to new or emerging requirements.

How Escalate Supports You

We partner with organisations to prepare for and respond to resilience regulation — helping you cut through complexity and build practical confidence.

Resilience Obligations Assessment
  • Clarify which regulatory frameworks apply to your organisation
  • Interpret obligations (e.g. CPS 230, SOCI CIRMP, ASX guidance, industry codes) in your operating context
  • Identify current capability gaps and potential exposure
  • Support Executive and Board understanding of duties and thresholds
Resilience & Risk Framework Alignment
  • Align existing risk, continuity, cyber and crisis plans to regulatory expectations
  • Establish Board-approved policies for operational risk, resilience and disruption
  • Build integration across functional silos — risk, ICT, operations, comms and supply chain
Disruption & Incident Reporting Readiness
  • Develop internal triggers for when and how to report a disruptive event
  • Support preparation for mandatory incident reporting (e.g. to APRA or the Department of Home Affairs)
  • Define escalation pathways, messaging, and regulator engagement procedures
  • Create event logs, incident summaries and post-event review templates to satisfy audit and oversight needs
Testing & Assurance
  • Facilitate scenario-based testing aligned with regulator expectations
  • Document and evidence compliance readiness through reporting and follow-up
  • Provide outputs suitable for internal and external assurance review

Key Frameworks We Support

  • APRA CPS 230 – Operational risk, critical operations, continuity and material service providers
  • SOCI Act & CIRMP – Critical infrastructure resilience and reporting across cyber, personnel, physical and supply chain risk
  • ASIC & ASX Guidance – Increasing emphasis on business continuity and cyber resilience for directors and listed entities
  • Industry Codes & Frameworks – Health, education, financial services, energy and logistics all face increasing continuity scrutiny

We track cross-sector developments and help you stay ahead of changing expectations.
