DATA SECURITY OF PERSONAL DATA USED IN ACCOUNTING COMPANY 25 MAY 2018

The accounting company ensures data security by both technical and organisational measures. Personal data is processed with due regard and ensuring data security. The measures listed below have been taken to ensure processing with due regard.

Personnel

Together with our employees, we have drawn up a confidentiality agreement on the confidentiality of trade and professional secrets. We invest in employee training, in both information technology and specific skills, and this will also assure the quality of processing in terms of data protection and data security. 

Our employees adhere to our internal guidelines, and we store customer materials in locked premises. In case of any changes, we have created our own operating models to ensure, for example, the timely deleting of access rights. We have a set of rules governing remote working.

We have a dedicated operating model in case of substantial derogations from data security.

Identification of customers and disclosure of material

We always and as much as possible strive to identify customers electronically and disclose material encrypted in an electronic format. Where material is disclosed in a paper format, we will identify the customer and draw up documents on the disclosure of material in two copies.

Administration of access rights and password policy

We follow a centralised and system-specific password administration procedure. All of our employees have been issued personal user authentication to access the systems, and access to confidential data is always protected by passwords. User authentication also means that user-specific logs are stored. Passwords are changed regularly according to an internal procedure, and the adequate level of password strength has been determined separately. If an employee’s job description is substantially changed, employee access rights are reviewed.

Outsourced ICT services and software

Written service agreements have been drawn up for external ICT services, and written agreements have also been drawn up on the secrecy of confidential data. The assignment of responsibilities between us and our service provider has been documented in writing. 

Information management and protected data

We largely seek to process all customer-related data through electronic means. Where necessary, access to electronic systems has been limited to the persons who process data and their substitutes. To ensure processing with due regard, internal handling and processing guidelines have been drawn up regarding the processing of customer materials. We use locked confidential waste bins for destroying paper waste from customer materials. We seek to avoid the use of removable storage media, such as USB mass storage, in the processing of customer-related materials.

Data security of computers and mobile devices

We have in place centralised workstation management for distributing the latest data security updates to workstations regularly. Employees do not have the rights to install in their workstations any software other than that approved by the company’s ICT administration. We use centralised antivirus and firewall applications which we monitor to ensure that they are up to date. Connections to electronic systems are encrypted. Workstation disk systems are encrypted, and we use scanning and analysis tools to look for workstation and server vulnerabilities.

Data security of networks and other ICT environments

Our external service provider ensures that our network is kept up to date. Network devices are updated regularly, and any detected vulnerabilities are patched. We only use business-grade network devices. We do not use our own server. Customer networks (including the wireless guest network) have been separated from our network.

Financial administration software and cloud services

We use some financial administration programmes and cloud services internally and with customers.
