Cyber security risks for RTOs
ASQA now wants proof, not policies.
The 2025 Standards took effect on 1 July 2025 and focus on self-assurance: showing your systems operate effectively. For most RTOs that includes how learner information and assessment records are stored, secured and retained.
-
Learner record integrity
Enrolments, Unique Student Identifiers (USIs), assessment evidence and results. Lost or altered records are an audit finding and a privacy breach.
-
Online assessment security
Verifying who is sitting an assessment and keeping assessment tools secure, especially for online and blended delivery.
-
Contract trainers and third parties
Contractors and third-party providers need access, but the RTO stays responsible. We make access easy to grant and easy to remove.

ASQA audit readiness self-check
Could you evidence your systems at audit?

-
Are learner records retained and retrievable for the required period?
A basic audit request.
-
Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced on your SMS, LMS and email?
Learner systems hold identity and USI data.
-
Is contract-trainer and third-party access reviewed and removed promptly?
The RTO remains responsible for third parties.
-
Are student management and LMS data backed up, with a tested restore?
Cloud platforms don’t always back up your data for you.

Do online assessments include identity checks?
Authenticity of evidence is a common audit focus.
