The ESPS framework includes administrative, organizational, technical, and physical safeguards, and is supported by a dedicated Risk and Governance team responsible for policy development, approval, and maintenance. Compliance is ensured through regular audits, risk assessments, and a global internal audit function that reports to the DXC Audit Committee and the EVP, General Counsel.

The Security Incident Reporting and Management Standard outlines procedures for reporting, investigating, and managing security incidents. The Security Delivery Lead and Client Security Officer share responsibility for customer satisfaction regarding security, and improvement proposals are managed through formal change management processes. DXC's approach ensures that policies are consistently implemented, monitored, and updated to address evolving threats and regulatory requirements.
