Scaling

Independence of resources
Each tenant has their own dedicated node preventing access from other customers, but also ensuring performance demand spikes on other nodes are not felt due to 'noisy neighbours'.

Performance is automatically monitored and resource allocation is maintained to prevent issues across the environment. This is further enhanced using automatic scaling technologies within the SaaS platform, ensuring that busy periods such as month end and year end do not create service demands that cannot be serviced by the application or infrastructure.

Information security policies and processes
Information security policies are fully documented and available to all members of staff. Updates are communicated to the organisation, with new starters undergoing a specific session that covers the security policy and invites them to ask questions. This is based around our ISO27001 certification.

Typical policies and processes include blocking the use of USB devices, password changes, fully documented change control, subscribing to security news letters from our CREST accredited security partners, etc.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Versions are tracked and updated within an advertised window with no interaction required from the customer. Every software change is subject to CAB approval which happens once a week (or can be put forward for an emergency change if required).

Regular independent cyber security testing ensures that the rollout of such component changes not only undergo the scrutiny of advertised vulnerabilities highlighted by our independent security advisors,
but these are then subsequently tested using a CREST accredited organisation.
Vulnerability management type
Undisclosed
Vulnerability management approach
A detailed account of this information is available upon request. However, at a high level the threats to our services are both managed, monitored and neutralised via our IDS / IPS systems, we deploy patches regularly in a controlled manner using industry standard deployment tools and our information about potential threats comes from our CHECK certified security provider and datacentre partners.
Protective monitoring type
Undisclosed
Protective monitoring approach
This information is available upon request, but at a high-level potential compromises are identified using an industry standard IDS system, our response includes our own security procedures and includes our CHECK accredited security partner. Any such threats / compromises are classified as URGENT and are investigated immediately under the highest possible SLA. Engineers operate 24/7, ensuring any threats can be addressed with immediacy.
Incident management type
Undisclosed
Incident management approach
Further information available upon request, but our incident management is tightly interwoven with our service desk system. Users can report incidents via email, internet portal or telephone. Users can run their own incident reports via this system, but these are also available upon request.

We have pre-defined processes for common events (environment changes, refreshes, etc.) and these are documented on the portal knowledge-base where appropriate.
