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
Configuration Management Process:
Wipro will implement best practices like Creating standards, Maintain documentation, Configuration integrity checks, Configuration upgrade procedure, Configuration version control system to improve Configuration Management.

Change Management Process:
Wipro will bring in best practices from ITIL Change Management Process to ensure that standardized methods and procedures are used for efficient and prompt handling of all changes. Our focus is to minimize the risk to and the impact of changes on the environment and while improving service quality. The ITIL V4 aligned Change Management Process by Wipro will be organized into phases which represent high-level activities in implementing changes.
Vulnerability management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
Wipro works with its Cloud partner Oracle to utilize network vulnerability assessment tools to identify security threats and vulnerabilities. Formal procedures are in place to assess, validate, prioritize, and remediate identified issues. Oracle subscribes to vulnerability notification systems to stay apprised of security incidents, advisories, and other related information. Oracle takes actions on the notification of a threat or risk once confirmed that a valid risk exists, that the recommended changes are applicable to service environments, and the changes will not otherwise adversely affect the services.
Protective monitoring type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
There are multiple Cloud Monitoring Tools available that protect data, end points and Cloud Resources from vulnerabilities. Cloud Guard and Cloud Logging and Analytics are such tools which help to monitor and identify potential security issues and remediate them. OEM is another primary tool to monitor all oracle workloads in cloud landscape. Apart from these, Wipro has a highly skilled team for deploying automated customized scripts or ad hoc scripts. With the mentioned native security and monitoring tools along with Wipro-driven scripts, any potential security breach or vulnerabilities can be addressed and remediated sending alert messages to the respective stakeholders.
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
We have SIEM (Security Incident and Event Monitoring) tool in place which monitors all major network and select compute devices for any suspicious activity matching its comprehensive database of suspicious traffic patterns. Alerts get triggered and our 24x7 SIEM teams investigate into these alerts. They cut out the false positives and focus only on the suspicious cases. They then log a ticket and investigate further based on standard operating procedures. If the system/application owner finds any security related suspicious activities based on the log files reviews, it is immediately reported as per the procedures defined in Security Incident Management procedures.

Secure development

Yes
Who implements virtualisation
Supplier
Virtualisation technologies used
Oracle VM
How shared infrastructure is kept separate
Each customer owns a separate tenancy and allocated resources within. The network isolation and tenancy boundary ensures customer are apart. Oracle implements the virtualisation technology for Virtual Machines.
Bare metal servers provide further isolation for different organisations by separating the infrastructure.

Energy efficiency

Energy-efficient datacentres
Yes
Description of energy efficient datacentres
Our Energy Efficiency measures include new retrofit technologies to improve Chiller and Air Handling Units (AHUs), integrated design and monitoring platforms. The Global Energy command center aggregates Building Management System inputs on a common platform to optimize operational control and improve energy efficiency. Since 2007, we have been working on a server rationalization and virtualization program, through which we have decommissioned old physical servers and replaced the processing capacity with virtualization technology on fewer numbers of servers. As of March 2021, we have 13133 virtual servers (10155 in March 2020) running on 758 physical servers which contributes to an energy savings of approximately 57.9 million units in the reporting year. The savings showed an increase of 21% over the previous year.

Social Value

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Our carbon inventory and reduction plans are as per ISO14064. The Net Zero Emissions Coalition is a group of leading companies committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. The coalition has a 5-year plan to transition to net zero through business transformation, collective action and enabling systems change. Wipro is a part of this coalition and will engage with a wide set of stakeholders, create deliverables, and prioritize efforts to generate the maximum impact on reducing emission levels. Every asset created by the initiative will be open source and free to use. Wipro commits to contribute to planetary net zero emissions goals by reducing its own emissions to net-zero by 2040. Wipro has partnered with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to identify near term and long-term targets. Wipro campus buildings are designed in alignment with green building standards. More than 40% of the electricity we consume is from renewable energy and the water we consume is recycled. We are focused on key climate change goals, including carbon mitigation, energy efficiency, participative water management, campus biodiversity, and environmental profit and loss valuation, within and outside Wipro’s ecosystem. 575,000 tons of GHG prevented from entering the atmosphere over the past 5 years by increasing energy efficiency and renewable energy procurement. 4.2 million tons of carbon emission reduced through renewable energy made in our facilities. 41% of our electricity comes from renewable energy. 13,000 tons of carbon emission eliminated over the past 3 years through alternate travel options and optimization. 5.4 million kilometers in daily commutes transitioned away from fossil fuel vehicles through the Electric Vehicle 100 Initiative. 171 million gallons of water saved through our water efficiency programs. 41% of our water is recycled. 22.7 million kilometers of employee travel reduced through carpooling initiatives.
Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

We have committed $155M towards tackling Covid-19 pandemic.
