We offer a comprehensive Help Centre filled with detailed guides to help you get the most out of your system which is available to all users that have a log in for Every. Additionally, we provide interactive online training sessions where attendees can test their knowledge with mid-session quizzes, participate in breakout rooms to encourage peer-to-peer learning, and access a test environment to apply what they’ve learned.

• Voicemails will be responded to within 24 hours.
P1s are handled specifically by the 3rd line staff or team leader and will keep the client informed at every stage of the investigation through to resolution.
Approach to resilience
The system is hosted within a UK data centre, with separate, load-balanced web and database servers.

Redundant Internet links, network connectivity and a multi-DC provider strategy reduce the risk from data centre failure.

All local disk arrays are RAID10 for additional resilience and all hosts and core networking devices are dual powered. Our host data centres are supported by at least N+1 electrical infrastructure with at least dual geographically redundant network feeds. The hosts also maintain an ISO 27001 managed Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plan at a corporate level that seeks to ensure the maximum availability and integrity of service delivery, support and communications.

Catastrophic failure should result in downtime of no longer than 30 minutes.

Guaranteed availability is 99.5% annually. Actual achieved availability is at 99.99%. Refund mechanisms are agreed on a case by case basis, but this would normally be provided as service credits.
Outage reporting
We have a tool called Gainssight for reporting outages and additional communications will be via emails.

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
All changes are tracked and monitored through the development / release cycle. All components are unit tested, manual tested and release tested prior to release. Regular automated penetration tests are run on test servers with release code, prior to release.
Tracking is recorded and monitored through project and issue management tools.
All component changes go through a formal process of scoping, specification, implementation, regression testing and release.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
We follow the OWASP guidelines including security testing on our product for the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities.
In addition to our development procedures, the application is automatically penetration tested using software penetration testing tools at each major release. It is also penetration tested annually using a CREST accredited security company.
Our hosting environment is penetration tested on a monthly basis.
Patches are generally deployed immediately after they are approved for release, or as soon as practicable (after they are approved for release) in other cases.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Protective monitoring is provided covering both hardware/software failure and system attack/compromise.
Intrusion detection systems monitor system changes, as well as providing a comprehensive audit trail of changes.
Additionally, the system and applications are monitored live for availability and/or failures.
Audit trails and monitoring tools are used to identify issues or potential compromises.
Notifications are provided to key members of staff and prioritised accordingly. Target incident response time is immediate or as close to as possible.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
The incident management process is defined formally in the Information Security policy.
Users report incidents or suspected incidents to the internal service desk and these are then reviewed by one of the information security team. All calls, emails or live chat records are logged and tracked until closure.
Tickets are dealt with or escalated to the appropriate level (including board level) as appropriate.
In the case of major incidents a major incident report will be produced. For minor or non-incidents, feedback will be given to the users directly.
