"The Information Security Department must provide direction and technical expertise to ensure that CyberArk’s information is properly protected. This includes consideration of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and the systems that handle it. The Department act as liaison on InfoSec matters between all departments, and must be the focal point for all InfoSec activities throughout CyberArk. The Department performs risk-assessments, prepares action-plans, evaluates vendor-products, participates on in-houseIT system development projects, assists control Implementations, investigates information security breaches, trains staff members. The InfoSec Department has the authority to create and periodically modify both technical standards and standard operating procedures that supports the InfoSec policy. When approved by appropriate CyberArk management, new requirements have the same scope and authority as if they were included in existing policy documents.
An information security steering committee, consisting of the CEO, GM, CIO and CISO must meet bi-weekly to review the current status of information security at CyberArk, approve and later review information security projects, and perform other necessary high-level information security management activities. Other employees may join the committee according to necessity and relevance. An information security Audit committee is being updated with information security work plan and risks management on a bi-quarterly basis."

Fighting climate change
CDW is committed to fighting climate change and protecting the environment. CDW has made a commitment to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040, 10 years earlier than mandated by the UK government. To achieve this, CDW has implemented (and continues to implement) initiatives to reduce our emissions and carbon footprint, all of which are underpinned by CDW’s ISO14001 certified Environmental Management System (EMS) and our beGreen program.
CDW’s distribution centre and our flagship offices hold ISO 14001 environmental management certifications, with our UK distribution centre also holding REGO energy certifications. In parallel with our EMS and beGreen program, CDW has invested in and implemented a range of initiatives to help tackle our contribution towards climate change across our operational activities. These initiatives include (but are not limited to):
-Solar panel usage. As a result, in 2021, we were able to achieve 100% renewable energy sourcing for CDW-owned buildings.
-Energy-efficient lighting solutions, including indoor and outdoor LED lighting.
-Motion sensor lighting and conveyor systems that turn off in response to inactivity.
-Water consumption solutions, including rainwater harvesting efforts.
-“Smart” HVAC systems that adjust according to business hours and seasonal temperatures.
-A ‘Pin to Print’ program enabling enhanced print queue management to reduce wasted print jobs
-A goal to achieve 100% renewable energy sourcing for electricity by 2027. In 2021, 98% of electricity consumed in the UK was from renewable sources.
Additionally, at our distribution centres, we have recycled:
-2,966 tons of packaging material
-9,794 tons of cardboard
-636 tons of paper
-Thousands of wood and plastic pallets
Furthermore, at a coworker level, CDW has established a ‘WE GET Our Environment’ Business Resource Group and an Environment Committee with the purpose of increasing awareness of the environmental and social strategy, and to empower coworkers to get involved in environmental initiatives.Equal opportunity
CDW is committed to creating a working environment for coworkers dedicated to inclusion, diversity and equal opportunities, as detailed in our CDW Way Code, which teaches all CDW coworkers to:
-Always do their best to make everyone at CDW feel welcome
-Treat other coworkers with respect and dignity
-Maintain an inclusive workplace in which all coworkers can demonstrate their full potential
-Respect the unique attributes and perspectives of every coworker
CDW provides equal treatment and opportunity without regard to:
-Race
-Skin colour
-Religion
-National origin
-Gender
-Sexual orientation
-Gender identity
-Disability
-Age
Our commitment to equality is underpinned by six Business Resource Groups (BRGs). BRGs ensure all coworkers have a voice, build awareness, and provide support to similar groups in their communities. The BRGs include:
-Armed Forces Network
-Black Coworker Network
-Disability Support Network
-PRIDE+
-United Support Network
-Women’s International Network
CDW coworkers are empowered to reach their highest potential, and we are focused on providing them with a wide variety of tools and development opportunities to help them achieve their career aspirations at CDW, regardless of origin, background or situation. Within our learning culture, all coworkers are surrounded by comprehensive resources and support, ongoing education and skills training, and robust advancement opportunities. We offer a variety of programs to help current and future leaders build diverse teams and to help diverse coworkers develop their leadership skills so they can continue to advance in the organisation.
Our commitment to equal opportunities and diversity is demonstrable across our organisation. As an example, CDW’s CEO and President, Chris Leahy, is female and CDW’s Executive Committee consists of 50% female and 50% male coworkers, with 42% coming from multi ethnic backgrounds.
CDW is also committed to reducing the gender pay gap and produces an annual gender pay gap report - https://www.uk.cdw.com/site-tools/pay-gap-report/.Wellbeing
CDW is committed to providing coworkers and their families with the knowledge necessary to make the best health and wellness choices for themselves and their families.
Our approach to wellness is designed to help coworkers be safe, healthy and successful. We understand that managing work and personal life is a balancing act of shifting priorities and so we offer a variety of benefits that supports a coworker’s physical, financial, emotional and social
wellbeing, including access to telemedicine, a suite of family benefits and a variety of wellness incentives and programs.
CDW provides coworkers with an Employee Assistance Program, which offers confidential, individualised coaching to help coworkers achieve personal or professional goals. It also features enhancements for crisis care, 24/7 phone support and an emergency referral system.
Ongoing coworker engagement is fostered through regular communications events, including:
-Monthly wellness e-newsletters promoting benefits available to coworkers
-Workshops and activities focused on timely topics
-Various campaigns to raise awareness for meaningful topics throughout the year, including mental health, emotional wellbeing and heart-mind gratitude
As a further example of our commitment, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, our Coworker Services team implemented “coworker calls” - informal, but regular check-ins to ensure all coworkers are caring for their mental health and receiving the support they need.
CDW also established ‘The CDW Community’, an initiative set up to provide coworkers with activities that they could participate in to keep them physically and mentally active, and to give them a platform for social engagement with other coworkers during a time where many were feeling isolated.
Following its success during COVID, the CDW Community initiative has remained operational as we exit the pandemic, continuing to provide CDW coworkers with activities and resources centric to physical and mental wellbeing, as well as sessions to support a healthy family life.
