Security Philosophy
Cadamier provides maximum Internet security for valuable customer information with a minimum utilization of internal IT resources. As one of our clients put it, “Cadamier has put the Internet firmly and securely in our hands without the need to involve our already overburdened staff."
These guidelines below also provide some insight on how Cadamier thinks when it comes to security.
Know your Risk
Know what information and systems are most valuable in your organization. Access should be controlled to minimize your risk of losing valuable information. All access rights and privileges should have a related business purpose.
Layer your Defenses
Multiple layers of security and the use of compartmentalization are better than single points of defense. Implement security as close to assets as possible.
Information is the Key
Everything collects logs - master the collection and interpretation of them, and you can detect misuse and anomalous activities on both a real time and periodic basis
Coordinated Response
Knowing how to respond to an attack can make the difference between a speed bump and a disaster. Detail actions that are required when a break in is detected and make sure that the responsible parties are informed of their duties.
Policy Audits
Periodic reviews of security policies, standards, and procedures are a must to ensure the safety of your information.
Disaster Recovery
If you have the right tools in place, you can recover all items of value quickly. Once you determine the critical systems, know how to respond to failures and loss of data.
Employee Security Awareness
Your employees represent a vital line of defense when they have been properly taught your policies and practices. Integrate them into your security policies for added protection.
Minimum Required Services
Systems should contain only those applications and services that serve the business needs.
Systems Diligence
Systems should be actively maintained and patched as updates are available. The older a system is used without patching, the more vulnerable it becomes.
