Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
The Change Control process is designed to capture and manage the various requests for changes, upgrades and development of the Service Platform.

Subscriber requests for changes and updates will be reviewed by the company using an issue management system.

Any agreed changes then go through a process of configuration and testing prior to being deployed to the live environment.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
All CaseTracker servers are monitored using the Amazon AWS Inspector service, which reviews all servers against potential security issues and vulnerabilities, as set out in 'Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures' and 'Security Best Practices' defined by the AWS Inspector Core Rules Sets. All found issues and vulnerabilities are reviewed on a weekly basis by the senior technical team and dealt with according to the relative risk.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
All external traffic to our platforms are automatically monitored and protected by our cloud provider, Amazon AWS, who comply with various standards relevant to the security of its services including ISAE 3402.

Any traffic getting through to our systems is then protected using elastic load balancers and web application firewalls which actively protect against DDoS attacks and the OWASP Top Ten Security Risks.

Our engineering team also monitors for usage anomalies with automated alerts triggered in the case of abnormal trends / brute force. Any potential issues are investigated immediately with further analysis of the relevant server and service logs.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Our processes are inline with the NCSC 10 Steps to Cyber Security / Incident Management to ensure that all incidents are raised, managed, resolved and reviewed in a timely manner. The key steps are: Identify, Protect, Detect, Response & Recover. Customer-originating incidents should be reported to the service desk. The incident will then be managed according to the above. Whether customer- or internally-generated, the service desk will share an incident report with nominated contacts at affected customers, detailing the level and scope of the attack, the mitigation and recovery.
