NEC utilise a variety of cloud and datacentre infrastructure, including NEC Managed datacentre services and public cloud platforms such as Azure, OCI and AWS. In addition to encryption, various measures are implemented such as active monitoring and robust access processes to protect data at rest. These controls are regularly reviewed by our Security Architects to ensure they are relevant to current threats and only authorised users can access customer data.

- Private MPLS circuits or equivalent and FastConnect. NEC hosted solutions can be accessed using a fixed circuit or IPsec VPN. Access uses encrypted TLS 1.2 connection with 2048-bit RSA/SHA256 encryption keys, recommended by National-Cyber-Security-Centre (NCSC). NEC implements attack protection involving our perimeter firewall, traffic manager and application-specific filters. Our perimeter firewall supports intrusion detection/intrusion prevention and has request-flooding protection based on thresholds and dynamic address blocking based on feeds from high confidence sources. Traffic manager and application-specific filtering is implemented that recognises and dynamically blocks sources of unusual high-volume traffic, typical of an attack that is outside of expected bounds.

Privileged user access to Windows servers requires an encrypted TLS channel configured to use industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 protocol with 2048-bit RSA/SHA256 encryption keys, as recommended by NCSC. Privileged user access to Linux servers, Unix Servers and network devices is configured to use SSHv2 using AES-256 encryption.
All hosted services are backed up to the NEC Backup solution, where data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption when transferring data from the system to the backup devices.

The NEC Information Security Management System (ISMS) is registered to the International Standard (ISO 27001:2022). Our security policies and procedures have been created to fully comply with the requirements of this ISO 27001 standard. NEC runs a full information security internal audit programme and is independently audited by the British Standards Institute (BSI). This audit reviews our security management controls, policies and processes and ensures these meet the required standard.
Our security policies and procedures are updated at least annually, and include an Information Security Policy, Data Protection Policy and an Acceptable Use Policy.
We have a Cyber Security Breach Response Plan providing a plan that will be initiated in the event of NEC experiencing a major cyber security breach, or in response to a high-risk situation that will cause a significant breach if the necessary co-ordinated, preventative action is not taken. Incidents are managed within the context of our ISO/IEC 20000-1 compliant IT Service Management system by dedicated Information Security personnel.
NEC has achieved NCSC Cyber Essentials Plus certification demonstrating our ability to implement processes and procedures that result in protection against the most common cyber threats and demonstrate commitment to cyber security. - Software Security Code of Practice

Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Configuration and change management approach
-
NEC is certified for ISO20000:2018 for Service Management.
The status, location and configuration of service components are tracked throughout their lifetime in the NEC Configuration Management Database (CMDB). This is held within the NEC IT Service Management System. Changes to that asset are made via a Change Request or Service Request.
An Impact Assessment (IA) is produced for each Change Request (CR), and a risk score is generated based on the content of the Impact Assessment.
The CR and risk score is reviewed and approved by NEC, including members of the security team, before going to the customer for approval. - Vulnerability management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
-
NEC employs several different technologies related to vulnerability management, ensuring that all devices are updated regularly. Where possible automated patching is performed to ensure the timely implementation of updates and patches. Critical and security related updates and patches are proactively monitored and where necessary implemented as soon as possible.
NEC is a member of the NCSC Cyber Security Information Sharing Partnership (CiSP) and subscribes to the NCSC Early Warning Service which scans for network abuse events on an organisation’s network, as well as vulnerable network services on an organisation’s Internet-facing services. Threats and CVEs are triaged by the InfoSec team. - Protective monitoring type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
-
The NEC security monitoring policies/procedures are aligned with incident management policies and practices. Any significant security issues identified by analysis of monitoring alerts and/or reports will result in the NEC InfoSec team raising a security incident to initiate the associated detailed analysis process.
NEC uses an advanced SIEM monitoring service as part of our protective monitoring solution. Our SIEM provides predefined alerts and reports that enable log sources to be processed and comply with NCSC guidance and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Network monitoring-related alerts are sent to our central service management tool and monitored by a 24x7 Service Desk. - Incident management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Incident management approach
-
Our Incident Service Management Tool is available online 24/7 and updates will be communicated via email and/or telephone. The NEC Service Desk and ISMT is based on ITIL principles; all staff have ITIL foundation training. Key team members also hold qualifications in ITIL Service Management. High priority incidents can be reported by telephoning or emailing the NEC Service Desk.
Our ISMT enables incident and support requests to be centrally managed as a unique event providing full traceability and audit history. - Post-quantum cryptography secure
