According to google, ASD is the acronym or the Australian Signals Directorate, what used to known as the Defence Signals Directorate, the main signals intelligence agency of the Australian government.

Also according to google, the ISM is the acronym for the Information security Manual, an ASD (see above) publication that explains how to secure government systems to the highest standard.
