Security governance approach
Security is at the core of how we operate. We are currently working through the ISO27001 process. We aim to have this in place by August 2020. We have a Data Protection Officer (one of our co-founders) and use operating procedures that protect customer data at all stages. We are GDPR compliant and have procedures in place to remove personal information. Whilst we might not be certified, our infrastructure is through Node4 - an approved CCS datacentre.
Information security policies and processes
Security is the responsibility of our Data Protection Officer, Mat Oram. Mat is one of our co-founders. We have policies in place surrounding the protection of customer data in transit and at rest. We follow GDPR guidance and have up-to-date privacy statements. All of our data exists in secure data centres and we are Cyber Essentials certified. All server usage is monitored and breaches reported to customers. All users are provided with complex passwords and 2 factor authentication is used to access our servers.
