Information security policies and processes
Security is managed at three levels: Infrastructure, Environment, Customer. iOCO Cloud team are wholly responsible for Infrastructure security, governing DC / Hardware, Network and Security devices. iOCO team is responsible for managing the environment where the application is running - for example building and hardening the application to vendor recommendations. Customer is responsible for in-application security.(e.g. user role access) and the security of on-premise components that maybe required for integration purposes. In Public Cloud deployments the responsibility for infrastructure falls on the supplier and in the event of SaaS solutions the infrastructure and application is managed by the suppliers controls.
