AG was established to increase the fish yield of its member fishermen and supply the fish to the consumers as quickly as possible at a reasonable price. Using sophisticated technology, including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), the fishermen locate the schools of fish suitable for consumption without catching them indiscriminately and thereby reducing over fishing. AG directly supply the fish from the fishermen to the customers without an intermediary. To this end, AG has its own vehicles, ten distribution centres along the coast of the state and three distribution vehicles at each distribution centre. Each fisherman will be affiliated to a distribution centre. AG operates from a small office in Hobart. When a customer places an order using the application of AG or over the phone, the order is processed using a proprietary software program of AG. By using this software, AG is only be able to receive the optimum quantity of fish from the fishermen on time but also be able to deliver the order to the customers quickly. This whole process is automated with the help of on-board computers on the distribution vehicles connected to the office of AG and the mobile devices of the fishermen. The fishermen can get connected to the Internet and post questions to online forums. AG also has an online banking society that provides most of the main banking facilities of other banks to its member fishermen. AG also has a marine and fisheries training centre in Hobart. The centre has a managing director, a secretary and two instructors. There are 20 students at any time in the training centre, participating in the classes. The instructors can show the students the live videos of fish shoals and schools as well as the techniques used by the fishermen. The network of the training centre is a part of the network of AG. AG needs the guarantee that their proprietary application, and various data and information in their information system are secured. After the success in Tasmania, AG expanded its services to fishermen and customers in Victoria as well. As the society was established last year, the information security policies have not yet been developed. The society is now in the process of developing a comprehensive set of information security policies for its information system.
