| Defence Signals Directorate | Reveal their secrets....Protect our own |
DSD provides the Australian Government with a unique signals intelligence and information security service of vital national importance. To deliver this service our staff work with leading edge communication and information technologies.
The work we perform makes a real difference to Australia’s security, and our staff are able to go home each day feeling a sense of accomplishment. Because of the classified nature of our business, staff cannot take their work home—so when they leave the office for the day they have no choice but to switch off!
DSD has an incredible team spirit and atmosphere. Results from our staff surveys continually highlight DSD’s strong teamwork culture. The most commonly cited reasons why staff enjoy working at DSD are because of the talented, committed and supportive people they work with.
The foundation of all DSD’s work is a strong mission statement and set
of corporate values. DSD’s mission and values aren’t just a set of
words pinned to the walls of our offices—they are something that all staff
contribute to, regardless of the area they work in.
