Information security

We understand that our clients entrust us with confidential information. Frequently as a direct result of our work with clients we are in possession of trade secrets as well as information covered by the Data Protection Act. Therefore we treat issues relating to information security very seriously.

Encryption

Hard drives of our office computers are encrypted by default and encryption keys are kept off site during the night. Any information therefore that is kept on our machine is safe even in the event of the burglary. With key size of 64kbit your data is safe with us. In addition to that we have backup procedures in place to ensure business continuity in the even to failure or data lose.

Malware protection

With rapid rise of identity theft as well as various viruses, trojans and spy were we take conscience decision to solve the problem at its root. We have set up our computer systems based on the open source software only. We use Ubuntu as operating system. Ubuntu comes from linux family and currently there are not known active viruses that affect it. It might sound shocking but source code of the entire system and applications is open to the public and since there are millions of people watching there is very hard for any security hole to remain open for any length of time.

This simply means that data that is entrusted to us is secure. Such standard of security can not be compared to any that Windows based computer can offer.

Office applications

As mentioned above we use open source application in our daily work which means always having access to the software documentation and being able to open the files even if software is no longer used. This also means that whatever documents we create for you those can be opened on many applications not only on those that we use.

Of course we can adjust our system to produce file formats that you desire including propriety Microsoft formats.

Secure communication

As stated in our environmental stand we use email as our preferred means of communication. To ensure security and integrity of communication we use digital signatures which enables you to verify if email actually came from us and whether it was tempered in any way.
