- End-of-contract data extraction
- When a customer’s contract with Transputec Limited ends, data extraction is handled in a structured, customer‑controlled manner to ensure continuity and security. All backup data and protected workloads remain the property of the customer throughout the contract. During the offboarding period, Transputec ensures that customers retain full access to their Veeam Data Cloud tenant for data retrieval. Users can extract their data at contract end by requesting a full export of all backed‑up Microsoft 365 content through the service portal or support team, after which the data is provided in a standard, portable format before being securely deleted in line with the data‑retention policy.
- End-of-contract process
- At contract end, Transputec Limited follows a formal offboarding process designed to protect customer data and ensure a smooth exit. Customers are notified in line with contractual notice periods and retain temporary access to Veeam Data Cloud to extract their data. During this period, Transputec supports data restoration or migration, verifies successful data export if required, and documents the offboarding steps. Once the agreed offboarding window closes, access to the service is revoked, agents are decommissioned, and any remaining customer data is securely deleted in accordance with data retention and security policies. The standard contract price typically includes: Access to Veeam Data Cloud based on the agreed edition and licenses Initial onboarding support and setup assistance Standard operational documentation Access to Transputec support as defined in the service level agreement Use of included Veeam features covered by the contracted subscription (for example backup, security, monitoring) Additional charges may apply for: Extended data retention or offboarding periods beyond the contracted timeframe Large‑scale data export, migration assistance, or bespoke offboarding projects Additional cloud storage, disaster recovery, or advanced security features not included in the base subscription Professional services, custom configurations, or enhanced support tiers.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- Veeam Data Cloud, delivered by Transputec Limited, is designed to provide high service availability through resilient architecture, redundant systems, and continuous monitoring. Availability Commitment The service is operated to meet a defined availability target, as specified in the customer contract or Statement of Work. Availability excludes agreed scheduled maintenance windows and events outside reasonable control (e.g. force majeure). Service Level Agreements (SLAs) Availability SLAs are contractually agreed and typically measured on a monthly basis. SLAs also cover incident response and service restoration targets. Service performance is continuously monitored to ensure adherence to agreed levels. Service Credits and Refunds If the service does not meet the agreed availability SLA: Customers may claim service credits, calculated in accordance with the contract Credits are normally applied against future invoices rather than issued as cash refunds Claims must be submitted within the timeframe defined in the SLA and are validated against service monitoring data Supporting Controls High availability is supported by: Redundant infrastructure and failover mechanisms Proactive monitoring and alerting Documented incident and escalation management procedures Built‑in backup and recovery capabilities Full SLA details, including availability percentages and credit calculations, are provided in the customer’s contractual documentation
- Approach to resilience
- This information is available on request.
- Outage reporting
- Veeam Data Cloud, delivered by Transputec Limited, provides clear and structured communication to customers in the event of service outages. Outage Reporting and Notification Public dashboard: Service availability and incident updates are published via the Veeam Service Status Dashboard, which provides real‑time and historical information on platform health, incidents, and maintenance activities. API: Outage and health status information can be accessed programmatically via Veeam management and monitoring APIs, enabling customers and partners to integrate status information into their own monitoring or service management tools. Email alerts: Customers receive email notifications for: Confirmed service incidents Planned maintenance windows Significant service disruptions and resolution updates Email alerts are sent to registered administrative contacts and support distribution lists, ensuring timely awareness and ongoing communication throughout an incident lifecycle.

- Software Security Code of Practice
- Yes
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Configuration and change management approach
- Transputec Limited operates formal configuration and change management processes aligned with recognised standards such as ISO/IEC 27001 and ITIL. All service components (infrastructure, systems, and applications) are tracked throughout their lifecycle using asset and configuration management records, including ownership, versioning, dependencies, and decommissioning status. Changes are managed through a structured change control process requiring documented requests, impact and risk assessments, and appropriate approvals. Each change is reviewed for potential security impact, including effects on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Security‑relevant changes require additional review and testing before implementation, with logging and post‑change verification to ensure controls remain effective.
- Vulnerability management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
- Potential threats are identified through regular vulnerability scanning, risk assessments, and review of system configurations. Vulnerabilities are assessed based on severity, exploitability, and potential impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, with remediation prioritised accordingly. Security patches are deployed in line with defined timescales based on risk. Critical and high‑severity vulnerabilities are addressed as a priority, with testing performed where required to minimise service impact. Compensating controls are applied if immediate patching is not possible. Information on emerging threats is obtained from a combination of vendor security advisories, industry threat intelligence feeds, CERT/NCSC guidance, vulnerability databases (e.g. CVEs), and security partners.
- Protective monitoring type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
- Security events are identified through centralised logging, continuous monitoring, and automated alerting across systems, networks, and applications. Logs and alerts are reviewed to detect suspicious activity, policy violations, abnormal behaviour, or indicators of compromise. When a potential compromise is identified, it is triaged, investigated, and contained in line with documented incident response procedures. Appropriate remediation actions are taken, and incidents are escalated to senior management and affected customers where required. Monitoring is continuous, and critical security alerts are responded to immediately, with defined response and escalation timelines based on incident severity to minimise risk and impact.
- Incident management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Incident management approach
- Transputec Limited operates documented incident management processes aligned with recognised security standards. Pre‑defined response procedures exist for common security and service events (e.g. malware, unauthorised access, service disruption), with clear roles, escalation paths, and response actions. Users report incidents through established support channels, including service desk tickets, email, or dedicated customer support contacts. Incidents may also be raised proactively through internal monitoring and alerts. For notifiable incidents, customers are provided with timely updates and post‑incident reports. Reports typically include the nature of the incident, impact, actions taken, resolution status, and any remediation or preventive measures implemented.
