Approach to resilience
We have an RPO of 15 minutes and a RTO of 2 hours for MOVEit Cloud.
Please see supporting document 'MOVEit Cloud Service Description' which provides more detail on the Service Availability.  Our Cloud Operations team performs proactive maintenance and monitors the Service 24x7x365.   Assuming incidents and events are within our reasonable control, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Service available 99.9% of the time (the “Uptime Performance Target”)
Outage reporting
MOVEit Cloud guarantees a 99.9% uptime and details of outages are broadcast to customers and also available on this website: https://status.moveitcloud.com/

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
2-factor authentication
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
For user authentication, MOVEit Cloud provides the ability to authenticate users to external LDAP and/or RADIUS servers. Microsoft Active Directory (AD) operates as an LDAP server, so MOVEit can authenticate to it natively. Both of these can be secured at the transport level (we encourage the use of LDAP over SSL) and related credentials are stored encrypted within MOVEit.

In addition to authenticating existing users against external sources, MOVEit Cloud can create new users, often as a clone of an existing template user. MOVEit Cloud can also split an organization's user base into External Users and Internal Users.
Access restriction testing frequency
At least every 6 months

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

We take our environmental management and the impact we have on the environment very seriously. We have environmental policies in place and hold the ISO14001 accreditation. Our environmental assessments are conducted annually by an external Lead ESOS Assessor; they are signed-off by the board and compliance reported to the regulator (the Environment Agency). Our environmental policy is published on our website at https://www.bytes.co.uk/company/sustainability/environmental.
Bytes achieved carbon net zero in March 2022 through approved carbon offsetting schemes. We are always seeking to reduce our impact on the environment. We aim to minimise waste, reduce pollutants and use renewable materials. Our offices have recycling facilities for cans, plastic and paper. We aim to reduce our office printing to zero within the next few years.
An Environmental Steering Committee has been established to coordinate environmental activities and drive change.
To drastically reduce our emissions, we have switched to renewable energy. Our Head Office has reached our first milestone of using a specialist 100% renewable electricity provider. We are also exploring options to install solar panels on our Headquarters building.
Other environmental initiatives include installing electric vehicle charging points and encouraging staff to commute to work without the car (setting up a car share network and installing secure cycle parking).
We produce a SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting) report that details the companies energy consumption and carbon emissions. This report is produced annually by an independent assessor.
This report provides details of our emissions in Scope 1, 2 and 3 categories. It details the activities previously taken to reduce emissions and also recommendations for further improvements.
For scope 1,2 and 3 emissions we aim to reduce these by 50% by 2025-2026 from our 2021 baseline.
We aim to be Net Zero by 2040, covering our own operational emissions.
