Security by Design

The design of our platform, infrastructure, business and operational processes as well as employee selection are all undertaken with data security to the fore. As a new organisation are fortunate that we do not have legacy systems to protect, habits to break and processes to re-engineer to ensure data security.  Instead our model is based on state-of-the-art technology and best practices.

Information Security Management System (ISMS)

Our ISMS is based on the ISO27001 (2013) framework laying out our policies and procedures with respect to all aspects of Information Security. These are then integrated with our risk management asset monitoring and incident management systems to give us real time view our assets and potential exposures.

First Line of Defence

Our people are HR and Payroll industry veterans with keen awareness of how critical information security is for our business success. We have industry experts advising us on our information security policies and procedures as well as providing training to ensure that our team is up to date with best practice and continually reflecting this in our ISMS.
