Information security policies and processes
At UKG, data security is a top priority. The technical and organisational measures surrounding the Application are built upon the AICPA SSAE 18 Trust Criteria for Security, Confidentiality, Availability, Privacy, and Processing Integrity. UKG is committed to data privacy by design. The principles of the several global data protection regulations, such as the GDPR, are embedded into all of our products and policies.
The Application is governed by the UKG Information Security Policy that requires the Application to go through an annual risk assessment. The Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”) in collaboration with the UKG Legal Department review any changes to the policy to determine whether sub-policies need to be updated or revised. Any changes are communicated to upper management and reflected in our mandatory annual security awareness training which is required of all system users. The UKG Information Security Team, under the leadership of the CISO, is responsible for security incident prevention, identification, response, investigation and remediation. UKG also has a wide-ranging privacy team under the direction of the CISO that handles privacy related issues.
