The resulting specification is executed by our software platform. Suggested test scripts and work instructions are provided to assist in user testing and proof of process. The specification may be altered during user testing and proof of process prior to service acceptance.
Initial onsite training, advice and guidance and on-going assistance will be provided throughout the life of the project, along with a full set of user documentation including worked examples and case studies.

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
Each asset, be it a deployment package, some infrastructure or any other asset which may change state and influence the solution, is uniquely identified and catalogued. The catalogue contains the current configuration of the asset (the configuration storage mechanism will vary based on the asset type).
Change requests are necessary to change the state of an asset. Change requests are reviewed against procedures to prevent negative security impact.
Vulnerability management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
We use third-party vulnerability scanners to identify potential threats, plus manual checks against the registry of utilised third-party components.

All services are supplied via our BASE system, which orchestrates the execution of tightly defined modules. Each module is aware and catalogues both third-party software and services that it uses. The BASE system itself has a registry of allowed DLLs which may be loaded into its application domain and these map back to modules. This registry is checked regularly to see if there are any security vulnerabilities.

We have complete control over the speed of patching/fixes, depending on the severity.
Protective monitoring type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
Audit data about asset usage (be it memory, network, disk, file, etc.) is recorded at all tiers of the solution and is continually statistically analysed. Any deviation from statistical norms is flagged for inspection and results in either a change to the statistical model, or a change request to mitigate any potential risk being raised.

Also, the BASE system’s script execution method performs similar statistical analysis of executed scripts.
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
Users have access to a self-service security management system, by which common processes may be performed for common events (e.g. deactivating a compromised user account administered by the reporting user). This is backed up by a helpline for non-standard events. Updates on progress are managed in the same way as our ticketing system.
