This guide gives you a high-level overview of the security policies and systems set up on the Emitwise platform.
Security
Emitwise is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance to protect your data. Our robust security framework combines industry-leading practices, real-time monitoring, and comprehensive controls to ensure your data is always safe.
Continuous Monitoring
Emitwise continuously monitors its systems and processes to detect vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with security standards. Automated tools identify gaps in real time, allowing us to address issues proactively.
Data Encryption
- In Transit: All data transmitted between Emitwise and our customers is encrypted using industry-standard protocols to ensure confidentiality.
- At Rest: Sensitive data is encrypted with advanced cryptographic algorithms, providing robust protection against unauthorized access.
Access Control
- Access to sensitive data is governed by the principle of least privilege, meaning employees only access the data necessary for their role.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is required for all critical systems, ensuring an additional layer of protection.
- Annual access reviews are conducted to maintain compliance with role-based access policies.
Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)
Emitwise follows a secure software development process to minimize risk:
- All code changes are peer-reviewed and tested before deployment.
- Testing and production environments are fully segregated to protect live systems.
- Updates are deployed through controlled release processes, ensuring reliability and security.
Incident Response
Emitwise has a comprehensive Incident Response Plan (IRP) to detect, contain, and remediate security incidents.
- The plan defines roles, responsibilities, and escalation paths for effective incident management.
- Post-incident reviews ensure continuous improvement of our security processes.
- Regular testing of the IRP ensures preparedness and effectiveness.
Employee and Vendor Policies
- All employees complete annual security training and undergo comprehensive background checks.
- Emitwise rigorously evaluates and monitors third-party vendors to ensure they meet our stringent security requirements.
