Information Security Policy
Information is an extremely important asset of XOPERO SOFTWARE and we are responsible for ensuring that this information is kept safe and used appropriately. Without due diligence, information can be exposed, which is a big enough problem in itself, and there are additional issues to consider in terms of protection against increasingly proactive and sophisticated theft attempts.
Therefore, the "XOPERO Information Security Policy” has been defined, which ensures that data stored and processed by XOPERO is treated in accordance with the highest standards to ensure its security.
The following objectives have been defined:
- Ensure the compliance with laws, regulations and contractual obligation in regards to information security,
- Ensure the protections of customers and employees data, protection of XOPERO SOFTWARE assets against theft, disclosure, misuse, and others forms of harm and loss,
- Develop and assess the XOPERO’s SOFTWARE information assets and in accordance with results implement the appropriate controls,
- Ensure that XOPERO SOFTWARE is able to continue its services in case of major incident and other threats,
- Ensure that external providers meet XOPERO’s SOFTWARE information security requirements,
- Raise the information security awareness for XOPERO’s SOFTWARE employees.
Protecting Computing and Information Assets
What is the information security
Information security it is protecting information, software, and equipment from incidents relating to disclosure, modification, interruption and disposal. With the information itself, requirements for privacy, confidentiality, integrity and availability must also be addressed.
Protection computing and information assets
The primary target of the XOPERO’s SOFTWARE information security program is to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.
-
Confidentiality:
information not meant to be published in public must only be made available for authorized persons.
-
Integrity:
error-free processing of information and the protection of it against unauthorized modification has to be warranted.
-
Availability:
information has to be provided within an agreed time.
Physical Security
Physical information security is the physical, rather than electronic, protection of information and access to that information. A lot of information security is focused on protecting information from a systems, network or software perspective, but we must not forget to physically protect information as well. All too often, information is easily compromised by unauthorized personnel taking advantage of weak physical security.
Access Control
Access control are put in place to protect information by managing who has the rights to use different information resources and by guarding against unauthorized use. The basic principle is that access to all systems, networks, services, offices, rooms, and information is forbidden unless expressly permitted to individual users or groups of users.
