Information security policies and processes
Our full IT Security Policy document is available upon request but the essential principles are;
All IT Systems are to be protected against unauthorised access.
All data stored on IT Systems are to be managed securely in compliance with all relevant parts of the Data Protection Act 1998.
The responsibility for the security and integrity of all IT Systems and the data stored thereon (including, but not limited to, the security, integrity and confidentiality of that data) lies with the IT Department unless expressly stated otherwise.
All IT Systems are to be installed, maintained, serviced, repaired and upgraded by Grey Monarch Technical Services (the “IT Department”) or by such third party/parties as the IT Department may from time to time authorise.
All breaches of security pertaining to the IT Systems or any data stored thereon shall be reported and subsequently investigated by the IT Department and, if necessary, escalated to the IT Director.
All Users must report any and all security concerns relating to the IT Systems or to the data stored thereon immediately to the IT Department, and, if necessary, escalated to the IT Director.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
All components, hardware and software, can be identified by their version number, release number and modification level. The software architecture allows for hot patching whereby extremely focused updates can be applied without affecting other components within the system. Any changes are subject to our change control procedures and are tested within development and QA environments before being applied to any production environments. Scheduled maintenance will be required at regular intervals. Scheduled maintenance is excluded from any service availability.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
The service infrastructure is ISO27001 certified and, as such, is subject to continual assessment to ensure that vulnerabilities are identified, risk assessed and treated/patched accordingly. Patches are prioritized according to risk and relevance to the service. Critical patches are typically applied within 24 hours of being available.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
The service infrastructure undergoes continual Security Incident and Event Monitoring (SIEM) according to CESG and ISO27001 best practises. This monitoring is provided by a mixture of automated and manual monitoring and analysis. Incidents and any potential compromises are assessed and responded to according to their risk assessment. Critical incidents are responded to immediately.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Pre-defined processes exist for common events. All incidents, whether internally identified, or reported by users are logged within our ticketing management system. Reported incidents are initially analysed and risk assessed. Either preventative measures or patches/fixes will be applied according to the severity and scope of any incident. Critical incidents will be escalated accordingly. Reports will be provided via eMail or telephone where appropriate and of a high risk nature.
