Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Configuration control is performed using source code management and version numbering. Our change management process is invoked whenever a change to the system is required. A change management plan is created, including identification of risks and associated mitigation. Software changes are managed in accordance with TickITplus accredited quality framework and taken through rigorous testing cycles. Before installing in the live environment, a rollback plan is formulated, and any required downtime agreed. The changes are installed in live environment and checks performed to ascertain the change was successful. Where problems arise the rollback plan is initiated restoring system to baseline state.
Vulnerability management type
Undisclosed
Vulnerability management approach
None
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
• 24 / 7 / 365 monitoring of server availability and performance with a restart option should the server fail out of hours
• Threshold monitoring to ensure potential problems are detected and addressed before they become critical
• Failover at any time of the day or night in the event of complete server failure
• Secure off-site data backup
• Disaster Recovery procedures and management Business hours support services for non-critical incidents.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Priority 1, Critical: The problem is stopping all work on the system.
Priority 2, Major: The problem is preventing the operation of a major sub-system or a group of users.
Priority 3, Functional failure: The problem is affecting a particular function for a significant/high number of users.
Priority 4, Intermittent failure: The problem is affecting a particular function for a minority number of users. Is intermittent and impact to operation is low.
Priority 5, Minor: Minor issue. Very low impact to users or the problem is cosmetic.

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Atkins is committed to fighting climate change as evidenced through becoming carbon neutral in 2021 as we drive our carbon emissions down to our net zero target by 2030. We have signed up to science based targets to reduce our own emissions through the global Race to Zero initiative.
Our commitment does not stop here but supporting our clients to meet their environmental reduction targets to. That is why we are staff upskilling our staff to understand the environmental impact of decisions use these as considerations throughout the delivery lifecycle to provide better solutions for our clients. We will work hand in glove with our clients, helping provide awareness of the climate impact of solutions the decisions that could be made such as circular economy opportunities.
Through providing a cloud hosted platform for Farynor, examples of where this will be achieved are:
• Reduced energy consumption to that of on-site servers
• Improved allocation of resources – less on-premise servers will require less hardware, resulting in reduced cooling and space needs to operate the service
• Reduced travel resulting in less fuel consumption by staff – mobile working allows staff to work more efficiently
Atkins continually reviews its environmental performance to identify areas where a change in approach can drive improvements or new initiatives locally and across our business.
