Centrelink staff get access cards of their own

23.11.2006

The system will potentially interoperate with other agencies under the Australian Government Information Management Offices' (AGIMO) IMAGE (Identity Management for Australian Government Employees) framework using the Centrelink Staff Identification Card, an individual agency card number defined within IMAGE.

The IMAGE framework, announced in 2006, is designed to build secure cross-agency identity management and due for completion in 2008.

It is a set of identity management business processes and technical architecture that complies with Australian Government Protective security manual 2005 (PSM), the Australian Government e-Authentication Framework (AGAF) and the National Identity security Strategy.
