- End-of-contract data extraction
-
The web application contains ONLY public data therefore the data remains in the application beyond the contract end date.
For managed analytics where the client provides non-public data, all data is owned by the client, and all outputs are data required by the client in the course of their programme execution. Our dashboards can be installed in client architecture, or on a private cloud, and the data is extracted in accordance with client data handling policies/regulations, and kept only by them. The content of the client’s log files can be provided in various formats (eg. CSV) - End-of-contract process
-
For the web application with client licenses, the license will expire the access to the application will cease.
For web application with managed service, the service relationship will cease but client will retain any reports that have been produced during the contract period.
For customised managed analytics we will discuss with customers any off-boarding, service migration or scope of exit requirements and reach agreement on the most suitable approach prior to an order being placed. The requirements should be documented in the Order Form by the customer, and Deloitte will include details in the Order Form as agreed between Deloitte and the customer.

Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
-
Our organization has two separate ‘policies & standards’ for both configuration & change management. Configurations processes revolve around testing & the ability to roll-back configuration changes. Change Management standards focus on proper checkpoints, sign-offs, and documentation.
Our change management & configuration policies focus on multiple checkpoints, sign-off by designated leadership, regression testing in lower environments, and the generation of artifacts that can be used to roll-back any changes as needed. - Vulnerability management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Vulnerability management approach
-
Our Vulnerability Management Policies and Standards focus on a regular assessment of our network, data, infrastructure, and procedures to understand the level of risk our solution is exposed to as well as how best to mitigate that risk.
Penetration Testing, Static & Dynamic scans, as well as open-source scans are conducted against the solution codebase for every release. All new data goes through a legal review of the ability for us to use it within the tool. Operating Systems & software on all infrastructure is regularly updated for patches. - Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
-
Multiple monitoring activities are performed: Network Performance Monitoring, Application Performance Monitoring, Web Performance Monitoring, External Web Availability, Internal/External Status Page, Real time review: IDS/anti-virus, Weekly review: Patch (GFI) log monitoring, Quarterly Review: Firewall / Firewall logging, Daily Review: Security event log monitoring.Logs are protected from unauthorised manipulation and deletion.
Additional controls established include collection and centralisation to provide a system of record for logging events. The centralised system serves as the system of record and leverages a flexible authentication and authorisation scheme for viewing various data sets. Logs are archived and backed up linked to retention polices/contractual and regulatory obligations. - Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
-
3 level incident classification framework:
L1: One instance of potentially unfriendly activity (for example, finger, unauthorised telnet, unexpected performance peak, etc.)
L2: One instance of a clear attempt to obtain unauthorised information or access (for example, attempted download of secure Password files, attempt to access restricted areas, etc.) or a second Level 1 attack.
L3: Serious attempt or actual breach of security (for example, multi-pronged attack, denial of service attempt, etc.) or a second Level 2 attack.
Any Level 1 type Incident occurring against systems components or originating from unauthorised internal systems must be classified as a Level 2 Incident.

Fighting climate change
Deloitte is committed to delivering effective stewardship of the natural environment both with our clients and within communities. We do this through our methodologies, how we run projects, how we work in partnership with our Social Value Delivery Partners and how we think about the future direction of our business. Specific action we would take to support a client with this theme would depend on the scale and scope of the engagement, the Social Value Model Award Criteria (MACs) deemed relevant to the contract, and the locality/beneficiaries/communities we are targeting.
Each engagement will be designed as an impact led service, with Social Value run as a workstream in parallel with the core phases/deliverables of the contract. A Social Value Lead will be assigned to each engagement to agree KPIs and oversee progress and delivery of commitments.
We have infrastructure in place to deliver against this theme. Our Social Value Team manages our ecosystem of Social Value Delivery Partners, and shapes our commitments for delivering additional environmental benefits and influencing environmental improvement and protection. This is done in collaboration with our WorldClimate team, Responsible Business team and Net Zero Transformation, Strategy and Innovation Team.
Our WorldClimate strategy focuses on four objectives where we can make the biggest impact: achieving Net Zero by 2030: Operating Green; empowering individuals through education and sustainability challenges/tools; and engaging ecosystems by collaborating with our clients, alliance partners, NGOs, industry groups, suppliers, and others to address climate change at a systems and operations level.
Our engagement teams can undertake volunteering activities with our climate related Social Value Delivery Partners as social value commitments, contributing to habitat creation and increasing biodiversity (e.g. WWT, WDC). We also have partnerships where we can co-design commitments around green skills, green jobs and carbon literacy.Covid-19 recovery
Deloitte is committed to integrating the five Social Value (SV) themes within the UK Government’s SV Model into engagements through our methodologies, how we run projects, how we work in partnership with other organisations and how we think about the future direction of our business. Specific action we would take to support a client with this theme would depend on the scale and scope of the engagement, the SV Model Award Criteria (MACs) deemed relevant to the contract, and the locality/beneficiaries/communities we are targeting.
Each engagement will be designed as an impact led service, with Social Value run as a workstream in parallel with the core phases/deliverables of the contract. A Social Value Lead will be assigned to each engagement to agree KPIs and oversee progress and delivery of SV commitments.
Our dedicated SV Team provides the bidding and governance infrastructure to deliver against all 5 themes. The team manages our ecosystem of SV delivery partners, shapes our commitments, promotes good practice, and monitors delivery/impact for our clients to ensure the policy outcomes are met.
Via our social impact strategy, 5 Million Futures (5MF), we also have access to a broad range of societal partners across 24 geographies in the UK, 16 nationwide partnerships and 34 partnerships with schools. The priority areas within our strategy are digital skills, education and employability, with inclusion at their core. The Strategy focuses the firm's resources and efforts on addressing inequality, helping people/communities to develop job skills and recover from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, improve educational outcomes and access opportunities to succeed in this rapidly changing economy. We have also co-developed a range of products and services with our 30+ Social Value Delivery Partners, enabling us to deliver a range of activities specific to an engagement.Tackling economic inequality
