Scaling

Independence of resources
We monitor all services and our cloud provider has built-in tools including on-demand suggestions. We can simply throttle up or down the hardware architecture almost instantaneously when demand requires it.

Analytics

Service usage metrics
Yes
Metrics types
Yes if for example using Microsoft Power BI, then service usage metrics are built in and available. One project recently completed required user usage metrics to be reported via a real-time dashboard. If for example, the front end is a web page then we can monitor and report on usage metrics similarly. This can be on a scheduled basis where the report is delivered to a user's inbox frequently for example or real-time. We are full stack developers so the possibilities are almost endless.
Reporting types

Data importing and exporting

Data export approach
The most common way to export data is through a visualisation tool such as Microsoft Power BI, Tableau or Microsoft SSRS. Data transformations may also require an output for another system so exports are almost unlimited with popular formats including seperated values, tab delimited, XML, JSON etc. If Data Engines are required, then database snapshots are also available.
Data export formats
  • CSV
  • ODF
  • Other
Other data export formats
  • PDF
  • XML

Data protection within supplier network
  • TLS (version 1.2 or above)
  • IPsec or TLS VPN gateway

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
We use third-party providers Microsoft Azure or AWS. We would be more than happy to complete the refund process if availability does not match the SLA.
Approach to resilience
Our databases can be clustered or replicated. In addition, a full operating system backup via our cloud provider is available if a catastrophe was to happen. Additionally, we employ load balancing technology, and also hot-swap database servers are available.
Outage reporting
Our server provider has built-in software such as SCOM alerts or SPLUNK. We also use a third-party provider PAESSLER to provide data and metrics on availability and outages. Email-alerts can be set up for any interested parties and access to the PAESSLER public dashboard can be configured.

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
  • 2-factor authentication
  • Identity federation with existing provider (for example Google Apps)
  • Username or password
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
We restrict access by roles. Users can be assigned roles that give access to more or fewer features.

Again when raising tickets users can be assigned this role if for example, the client wants to gatekeeper tickets before they come to the supplier. Again we work with you to ascertain the exact processes.
Access restriction testing frequency
At least once a year
Management access authentication
  • 2-factor authentication
  • Identity federation with existing provider (for example Google Apps)
  • Username or password

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
We use a tool such as VSTS as well as others to track changes related to the product scope (configuration management). We also use version control such as TFS or GIT to derive a baseline and then track subsequent versions. We regularly review change management through our retrospectives tackling our plans, audits, processes and baselines.

Our project manager will raise these tickets and ensure they are properly reviewed.
Vulnerability management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
We employ third parties to undergo penetration testing and vulnerability scanning

Firstly we need to know our infrastructure and estate. Therefore a log is kept of all tools, services and technologies - asset management. Then we regularly ensure all patches are deployed and undergo a program of software modernisation and new versioning monthly.

Being a microsoft house we use WSUS software updates.

This is delivered regularly via Tracking, metrics and reporting.
Protective monitoring type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
We use third-party providers such as PAESSLER or built-in tools such as Microsoft SCOM alerts or SPLUNK to monitor unusual activity. Furthermore, the latest anti-virus is installed at all times and our cloud provider - Microsoft Azure or AWS has firewall securities built in.
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 can raise a ticket via email or a web portal on defects or change requests. Defects will be graded with collaboration from the user to P1, P2 or P3. P1 has a 4-hour response, P2 an 8-hour response, and a P3 - 24-hour response.

Reports on no and type of tickets against the time taken/outstanding can be provided by email.

Secure development

Approach to secure software development best practice
Independent review of processes (for example CESG CPA Build Standard, ISO/IEC 27034, ISO/IEC 27001 or CSA CCM v3.0)

Social Value

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

All workers are encouraged to commute by public transport where possible. We have financial incentives for this. We have a car-sharing calculator too so that workers can hook up with others on likely car sharing routes.

We are a paperless office, indeed we do not own a printer. Printing involves a walk to a printing service in the city.

Being a cloud provider allows us to leverage the availability of our tools, technologies, and infrastructure only when needed (eg. office hours and rest of time shutdown).
Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

We have always advocated remote working. This continues as we recover from COVID-19 and we have no plans to change this.

We find the most ideal situation is a hybrid approach with some day in the office and the rest working remotely.
Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

From day 1 our company has been about giving new entrants to the technology industry chances perhaps we never got. We are passionate about enthusiastic people joining who may not have the qualifications or experience.
Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

Having worked in the public sector for many years we have been fortunate to have been involved in many seminars and group sessions on equal opportunities. We understand the difficulties that some of our colleagues, suppliers, and customers encounter. We embrace and adopt a themed month where a particular issue or group is highlighted and adopt seminars and group sessions for our business. Additionally, being a flexible and modern business where staff morale and happiness is paramount we are sensitive and understand the different needs of our staff and provide a range of incentives to tackle this.
Wellbeing

Wellbeing

Our business has always been about working hard and playing hard. We enjoy regular social events and this is interwoven into our work culture. We love to try new things during our themed months. Additionally, our benefits include well-being incentives.
