Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
- Any changes in production infrastructure have to be tested and certified in the Continuous Integration/ Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. Changes are nominated, tested, certified, and promoted to production. Sprint cadence is currently every 3 weeks. Lastly, infrastructure changes are infrequent, ticketed, and done by updating templates rather than making manual changes
- Vulnerability management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Vulnerability management approach
- Symantec has a formal process for handling and managing vulnerabilities. For any externally reported issues, Symantec follows the process outlined in ISO 29147, Information technology — Security techniques — Vulnerability disclosure ([ISO/IEC 29147:2014(E)]). Symantec's Software Security Group works with the impacted team(s) to: • Recreate the environment and issue within Symantec’s labs for an expedited resolution. • Facilitate a prompt and accurate response. • Avoid delays in new Symantec releases.
- Protective monitoring type

- Protective monitoring approach
- Available on request
- Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
- Symantec’s internal Security Incident Response Plan documents repeatable, industry standard procedures for handling actual cyber threats when they arise. It also provides the necessary engagement and information-sharing processes to allow prompt coordination among all relevant stakeholders, and describes the reporting, communication, containment, investigation, and recovery mechanisms that exist to support a comprehensive end-to-end process flow from threat detection through remediation. The development and implementation of this forward-looking plan supports Symantec’s ultimate mission to its customers, partners, shareholders, and employees as a trusted leader in information security risk management.
