Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
If the Client experiences loss of access to any aspect of the Service that is not scheduled or notified and can be determined to be caused by action or inaction by Rotamap, or a Third Party employed by Rotamap to provide aspects of the Service, and contingency arrangements as set-out in Clause 9(c) of the Rotamap Terms and Conditions have not been met, Rotamap will provide a reimbursement of fees as set out in the following
reimbursement schedule:

The duration of service interruption is determined within a 28-day period and during normal working hours only (08:30–17:00, Monday–Friday, excluding public holidays); ‘monthly payment’ means 1/12th of the annual fees:

0–8 hours: No refund

8–16 hours: 30% of monthly payment

>16 hours: 100% of monthly payment
Approach to resilience
Data is located in a UK data centre with biometric and multi factor physical access controls. Backup data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Physical resilience is achieved through the use of server redundancy and automated failover processes, as well as database streaming locally and remotely through encrypted channels.
Outage reporting
Rotamap have system monitoring services in place that ensure our system administration team are alerted immediately about any service outage. Rotamap communicate any outage along with updates on the progress of resolving the outage via email and/or in-system notification to our authorised users at each department.

Security governance

Named board-level person responsible for service security
Yes
Security governance certified
No
Security governance approach
Rotamap's approach to security governance is to be 'secure by design', by providing the simplest way possible to ensure that security risks relating to our IT environments are mitigated through either common or environment specific measures. These measures include: Appointment of a company Security Officer responsible for ensuring policies are followed and that audits take place, reviewing the company security policies quarterly, auditing individual's security behaviours quarterly, auditing the security behaviours of production environments with security subcontractors monthly and auditing other environments by members of the system administration team quarterly.
Information security policies and processes
Rotamap's approach to security policies and procedures is to be 'secure by design', by providing the simplest way possible to ensure that security risks relating to our IT environments are mitigated through either common or environment specific measures. These policies are lead by our designated company Security Officer, who is also responsible for regular audits and reviews. These measures include: Setting out the different information technology environments, determining the main risks across all environments, and any risks that may affect a specific environment, determining the common behaviours we need to mitigate the main risks, determining the environment specific behaviours we need to mitigate specific risks, appointment of a company Security Officer responsible for ensuring policies are followed and that audits take place, reviewing the company security policies on a quarterly basis, auditing each individual's security behaviours on a quarterly basis, auditing the security behaviours of production environments with security subcontractors on a monthly basis and ensuring all other environments are audited quarterly by members of the system administration team.
Software Security Code of Practice
Yes

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Service configuration and change management is managed through Rotamap's 'secure by design' security policies and procedures. All service configuration elements, including servers and network access, are managed through a configuration management system to ensure conformance with a policy. Production services are also port scanned by an external expert third party monthly to reveal configuration problems or problems with outdated software or operating systems. All IT devices must run software from vendored, security-managed providers agreed by the company with updates typically applied weekly through a testing procedure which is separated from other service changes.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Vulnerability management is managed through Rotamap's 'secure by design' security policies and procedures through which potential threats are assessed. All IT devices must run software from vendored, security-managed providers agreed by the company with updates typically applied weekly, including malware detection software. All service configuration elements must have updates managed through a configuration management system. Additional assessments are made via security update mailing lists, monthly penetration tests, and automated monitoring to alert us to available updates.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Protective monitoring is managed through Rotamap's 'secure by design' security policies and procedures, using three levels: 1. external gateway monitoring, actively monitored by our data centre provider 2. internal network monitoring, provided by local state, monitoring and reporting tools 3. independent per-machine monitoring environments. Alerts are triggered after binary updates which have not been completed/unexpected signature changes. Automated tests and other measures are used on production services to mitigate against code compromises and SQL injection. Production services are port-scanned by an external expert third party monthly to reveal misconfigurations or outdated software. A compromised machine must be reinstalled from scratch.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Incident management is managed through Rotamap's incident review process, so as to ensure incidents are responded to quickly and that all necessary evidence is recorded. Our internal monitoring and alerting systems and team communication tools are used to alert, report, review and manage incidents. Evidence is collected from the incident, users, records, timelines and steps are recorded for mitigation for the occasion in question and for avoiding the problem in future. Incident reviews are kept in the company documentation system for long-term reference. Communication with users is via phone, email and in-system notification. Outgoing email reports are partially automated.
