- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
-
We run anti-virus software on all servers and also gain reporting within our network on intrusion and unauthorised access attempts.
Continual monotoring enables potential security threats and their severity. Through effective patch releases from time to time and through monitoring their effectiveness, the protective monitoring process builds up intelligence to progressively refine itself and be better preapred by anticipating threats. - Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
- There is a catelogue of likely common events with specified course of actions/processes to address and resolve. Within this, there is a defined process of incident notofication.

Based on this periodic reports are produced and distributed to relevant parties.
