Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- The availability of the application is monitored from a remote location to ensure the system is available over the Internet. We strive for 99.5% uptime and regularly achieve 100% uptime during the month.
- Approach to resilience
-
"eSAFETY is deployed using Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and utilises Microsoft SQL Server for data storage. The application is accessed using a JavaScript enabled web browse and has a zero client footprint. Remote monitoring tools are used to monitor capacity:
• The Corporate and hosted infrastructures are monitored with PRTG & Spiceworks
• WAN links are monitored with PRTG
• Bandwidth is monitored by PRTG.
Thresholds have been set up and automated alerts are in place. The dashboard alerts page in the IT Helpdesk is also checked daily for warnings and any problems are recorded on the IT Help Desk.
Planning is a management function and capacity requirements are established prior to the introduction of any systems, taking into consideration requirements for future growth etc.
Testing and Development facilities are made available for the sole purpose of providing an isolated environment in which new application roll out, upgrades or modifications (changes) can be evaluated prior to implementation.
Warwick International test and development environments are physically and logically separated from the production systems.
Warwick International data, software and system images are backed up regularly, using schedules designed to provide minimum loss information to Warwick International & it’s hosted customers. - Outage reporting
- All services are monitored for uptime by WICS IT Team. They will be notified as soon as there is any outage and remedial action taken as soon as possible. Customers will be notified by WICS Support Desk if they are affected by any outage.

Since the eSAFETY application is hosted within IIS, authentication to the application can make use of all the security elements IIS provides, i.e.: IP and Domain Filtering, file and folder permissions etc.
eSAFETY supports any authentication method that provides access to a domain and username. Typically, this is Windows Integrated Authentication for on-premise and Basic Authentication for Hosted deployments .
As previously mentioned, only the Genohsis_Start.aspx page is secured, with all other resources being granted anonymous access. Internal control measures prevent dynamic resources being accessible if not logged in. - Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels

- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
- At the point an Information Security Incident occurs the employee should notify the Information Security Forum of this at the earliest possible opportunity. For this purpose, a form named ‘Information Security Incident’ form has been created on the company’s internal, Information Security SharePoint Site. This form should be used as the primary method for an employee to report all Information Security Incidents. Upon completion of the form, this facility will immediately alert the Information Security Forum by email when an incident has taken place.
