Information security policies and processes
Nasstar's approach to Security forms part of our overall Integrated Business Systems Management scheme. The Company Secretary is responsible at Board level for Information Security and ensuring that our ISO/IEC 27001 accreditation is maintained and enforced. The Information Security policy is a top down approach within Nasstar with Business Areas having responsibilities for Information, Network and Customer Data relating to their operational areas. The policies and procedures define access restrictions to all of our IT systems, networks and stored data. The practical policies and processes start with our Integrated Business Management Systems Manual which defines the Information Security Management system as a key part of our business. The Information Security Awareness process requires that all staff and contractors are periodically trained and assessed on their familiarity with Nasstar's ISO27001 Information Security policies and processes. Individual contracts and services will have a specific Security Plan defining the specific measures which will apply to the contract or service. All employees are responsible for Information Security and are trained in reporting suspected breaches to our IMS team who will identify risks and actions to minimise any such breaches.
