Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Configuration and change management approach
- IT change management processes are carried out using Change Requests and records are maintained within the Change Management system. All concerned parties are informed of the status of the request as changes or progress is made as applicable.
- Vulnerability management type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
- We monitor OWASP and various vendor alert sources for emerging vulnerability intelligence and patching data. A combination of web application scanning, host vulnerability scanning, and external perimeter proactively identifies any design, configuration, or patching weaknesses. When identified, any threats are assessed in context and where warranted, mitigations are implemented in accordance with their severity. These controls and processes are monitored as part of our ongoing ISMS/ISO27001 auditing programme.
- Protective monitoring type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
- Monitoring tools are used to measure server performance metrics as well as storage and network/bandwidth utilisation and unusual server/network/perimeter activity. The alerts from these systems are actively monitored and reviewed and any potential intrusion attempt is raised in line with our security incident reporting procedure for further investigation.
- Incident management type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v3.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Incident management approach
- Incidents or suspected incidents are raised to internal service desk and reviewed by the information security manager. They are allocated a risk reference, entered into the information security risk log and tracked until closure. In the case of major incidents, an Incident Response Team will be formed as required with key personal required to investigate and take necessary actions, and a major incident report will be produced.

Fighting climate change
Idox has adopted the metrics set out in the 3 scopes of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. We have a target to achieve net zero carbon emissions for these scopes by 2040 by eliminating, reducing or offsetting carbon emissions.
In Scope 1: we will eliminate all equipment in offices which produce direct emissions and replace these with energy efficient, electric alternatives. We will eliminate emissions from company owned vehicles by replacing these with electric alternatives.
In Scope 2: we will reduce electricity usage through Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme audits and will eliminate the purchase of electricity which does not come from renewable sources.
In Scope 3: we will reduce business travel through remote working and on line collaboration tools. We will eliminate travel by private vehicles which produce emissions and we will offset emissions from public transport used for business travel and from hotel stays either by choosing operators offering direct offset or by engaging in a compensating carbon offset programme. We will eliminate waste by removing single use plastic products and reduce waste from our offices by ensuring effective recycling of waste, including paper and will offset any non-recyclable waste by engaging in a compensating carbon offset programme. We will eliminate waste from surplus equipment by passing this on for re-use in support of our social contribution wherever possible, where this is not possible we will reduce waste by fully recycling the equipment and we will offset residual emissions in a compensating carbon offset programme.
We are strengthening Idox’s performance as an all-round responsible business that makes a valuable contribution to society, has good governance embedded in its culture and processes, and is on target to achieve net zero carbon emissions.
Our gross GHG emissions of CO2 (tCO 2e) are reported yearly in our published Annual Report. - Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality
Idox is focused on building a sustainable business that will benefit its customers, employees, shareholders, wider society and the environment. We take our environmental, social and governance (ESG) responsibilities very seriously. We have implemented substantial changes across our business to create a more diverse, transparent and sustainable business. In future, we will do more to measure and drive our performance.
How we will deliver social and economic benefits to Buyers and the wider community: We will address the social value requirements and the delivery of social and economic benefits to Buyers and their communities on a contract by contract basis. We understand that social value forms part of contract commitments to our public sector Buyers. We work collaboratively with customers to support the specific targets and outcomes that are a priority with their boundaries.
Examples of social value we can deliver to our Buyers: We can: facilitate skills workshops; make financial donations to fund places on training courses, fund community projects that work to tackle economic inequality, reduce the digital skills gap and create training opportunities for those who face barriers to employment and/or who are located in deprived areas, and support educational attainment; donate used IT equipment to VCSEs to support people in deprived areas; provide work experience placements in some localities.
We have a robust social value process and methodology which includes an annual review meeting where we can review our social value delivery performance with the Buyer. This annual review ensures we can understand the customer’s priorities and set appropriate targets for the year ahead, and continuously improve how we deliver social value, based on customer and community feedback and collaboration. - Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity
Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) are more than just words for us. They’re the hard-and-fast principles guiding how we build our teams, cultivate leaders and create a company that’s the right fit for every person inside of it. Our values and culture underpin our commitment to putting our people first.
At Idox we foster both a top-down and grassroots approach where we strive to create workplaces that reflect the communities we serve, and where everyone feels empowered to bring their full, authentic self to work.
Our guidance to our employees and suppliers concerned with recruitment, training, promotion and service delivery is outlined in our Equality and Diversity Policy which covers our responsibilities under the Equalities Act and how we deliver them. We are happy to provide a full copy of the policy upon request.
Idox has established clear goals to get to a gender balanced workforce by 2027. In order to tackle the issue of under representation in leadership, Idox is particularly focused on increasing the proportion of women in the people-leader tiers of the business to both correlate with the gender ratio of the company in general and to support the overall reduction of the gender pay gap specifically.
Our policies and initiatives that support Diversity, Equality and Inclusion include: Flexible working policy; Family friendly policies; Idox Elevate - a programme sponsored by Idox plc board members, committed to championing a truly inclusive culture; Pay Gap reporting - We publish our gender pay gap report annually on our website; Fair Pay - Idox is an accredited Living Wage Employer.
