Security Support
IPsoft will undertake responsibility for comprehensive security provisioning. For IPsoft to deliver guaranteed security coverage, the customer environment needs to be secured at each security layer: the physical, network, system, application, datastore, and process components of the system. Since each component has unique vulnerabilities, security will be viewed in layers. With a layered approach to security, it is important to understand that a system is only as secure as the weakest link. Each layer of security is dependent on the other layers. The absence of adequate controls in one layer of security can weaken the controls present in the other layers. Risk Assessments IPsoft will undertake on-going security assessment at each of the following five main security risks to the Customer's infrastructure. Exposures to these risks span across all security layers and should be mitigated within each layer:
IPsoft will assume off-hours responsibility to mitigate security risks in the above identified layers for Customer systems. The chart below presents the security risks and identifies at which layer the risk may occur. Security Attacks Covered The major attacks and vulnerabilities to the system discussed throughout the document are based on the information sensitivity and system criticality of the Customer system/application. The table below presents the attacks that are analyzed and their associated layer sensitivities. The chart below maps each security attack to the potential risks to the Customer system's security. Checks Performed IPsoft deploys checks for continual security monitoring. These include the following. Only representative checks are included as there are over 1400 checks total.
