Onboarding and offboarding
- Getting started
-
All clients are allocated a dedicated Account Manager. The Account Manager will meet with the client to capture their requirements and discuss what they need to achieve from the system. Once agreed, our support team will configure the system as per the client's needs.
On-site training sessions are offered to all new clients to help with their onboarding process. All new users have access to a range of support materials to help them use the system, including an integral how-to-guide for users of the JMS One mobile app.
When applicable, we can assist the client to migrate their data into the JMS One system. - Service documentation

- End-of-contract data extraction
- Clients can extract their data at contract end by contacting their Account Manager who will arrange the data extraction with the support team.
- End-of-contract process
- As contract end approaches, your Account Manager will meet with you to review contract performance. Should you not wish to renew, we will provide a single admin user account to be maintained for 30 days after contract end. This is to provide data access and to meet any regulatory, audit and compliance requirements you may have. We do not charge for data extraction at contract end.

- Security governance approach
- We adopt a unified view of how security impacts our organisation. We have scoped out which data needs to be protected, identified associated risks and have created strategic policies to ensure compliance. We regularly monitor and review risk and have created a framework of established solid policies and guidelines whilst promoting agility and adaptability.
- Information security policies and processes
-
Access Control Policy:
Outlines access available to employees with regards to data and information systems.
Information Security Policy:
High-level policy covering security controls. Primary policy is issued by the company to ensure all employees using information technology assets within the organisation comply with stated rules and guidelines. This ensures employees recognise there are rules which they will be held accountable to regarding the sensitivity of data, corporate information and IT assets.
Remote Access Policy:
Outlines and defines acceptable methods of remote connection to internal networks with specific rules for use of BYOD assets.
Email/Communication Policy:
Formally outlines how employees can use electronic communication mediums. The primary goal is to provide guidelines to employees on what is considered acceptable and unacceptable use of corporate communication technology.
Disaster Recovery Policy:
Policy contributing to the larger business continuity plan, we use multiple servers across different locations, working to a 2-hour recovery time objective (RTO) and a 7.5 minute recovery point objective (RPO).
Business Continuity Plan:
Co-ordinates efforts across the organisation along with the disaster recovery plan to restore hardware, applications and data deemed essential for business continuity.
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
- Our configuration and change management system tracks versions of hardware and software, and compatibility with all servers in the cluster. We record and document baseline versions and agree processes with all development team members to ensure compliance. Version control is managed by Subversion. We use common standard scripts to automate building, testing, integration and deployment, and undertake regular audits to ensure configuration and change management processes are maintained correctly and consistently.
- Vulnerability management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Vulnerability management approach
- Working to a pre-defined scope, our vulnerability management process consists of regular (scheduled) and random vulnerability scans performed across all servers and platforms. Any issues identified during these scans are recorded including the number of vulnerabilities detected and the severity/risk rating of identified vulnerabilities. These reports are analysed in order to determine risk and a remediation plan is prepared with clear deadlines for implementation of any required actions.
- Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
- Our protective monitoring process establishes ongoing collection and analysis of all log and event data, reviewing of activities, and performing real-time advanced correlation and pattern recognition. This includes information security controls including inspection of firewall logs, investigation of operating system security alerts and monitoring of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). This information is stored in order to provide an audit trail of security relevant events of interest. The information is reviewed on both a scheduled and random basis and will alert on individual and broader malicious events, simplifying remediation and helping to mitigate risk.
- Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
- Our incident management process aims to restore service as quickly as possible, minimise adverse operational impact, and ensure service levels are maintained. We apply standardised methods and procedures covering the response, analysis, documentation, management and reporting of incidents. Once an incident is identified, first level support aim to recover service as quickly as possible. If an incident cannot be resolved immediately, second level support will aim to provide resolution within agreed timelines. Our monitoring and escalation process ensures incidents are continuously monitored, providing any additional resources required to resolve high priority incidents and maintain service level agreements.
