Controlling Electronic access to the EP Sample Clauses

Controlling Electronic access to the EP. Computer access to the EP must be controlled through a central policy and, as a basic principle, user access should be limited to the minimum required for performance of duties. User rights to the EP (both electronic and physical) should be routinely reviewed and adjusted. This should be a part of the company’s staff induction and Staff leaver procedures. Data must only be retained for as long as is required – A policy should be in place to ensure that redundant data is removed from systems as quickly as is practicable. Passwords should be known only to authorised people and the passwords changed regularly. Ideally such password changes must be mandatory and must prevent re-use of a previously used password. Passwords should be “strong”. Ideally containing numeric characters, a mixture of upper and lower case, not based on a dictionary word and a minimum of 8 characters. Administrator accounts should have stronger passwords. Passwords with a character length of 12 or more should be considered Laptop and other portable computers containing EP information must have full disk encryption. Key system documentation should be protected from unauthorised access. Network devices (Computers, Laptops and Servers) must be protected from virus and other malware attack by suitable software. This should be updated as frequently as necessary to retain good protection. All computers containing the EP must be set to require passwords if left unattended for more than 15 minutes. Unauthorised devices should be prevented from attaching to the network by suitable end- point security software. These devices should include any device capable of storing data i.e. memory sticks, MP3 players & I-PAD’s, cameras, mobile telephones etc. Restricting physical access to wireless networks is difficult and therefore the use of such networks should be discouraged, but where implementation is unavoidable then strong encryption must be used with frequent key changes. The use of WEP (Wireless Encrypted Protocol) is unacceptable for securing a wireless network. Consider using WPA-2 AES(Wi-Fi Protected Access) with strong access controls as a standard. IT systems should be adequately maintained. It is important that such systems have the latest security patches applied. Are all data backups must be securely stored and encrypted.
