Security terms

1. Information Security Management Program. Cleo shall develop, implement, maintain, monitor, upgrade and comply with a reasonable and comprehensive Information Security Management Program (ISMP), which includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure protection of assets and data (including without limitation Personal Data) from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. The ISMP should address, but not be limited to, the following areas (insofar as they relate to the characteristics of the Cleo’s business):
   • Risk management;
   • Security policy;
   • Organization of information security;
   • Asset management;
   • Human resources security;
   • Physical and environmental security;
   • Communications and operations management;
   • Access control; and
   • Information systems acquisition, development, and maintenance.

   As part of the ISMP, Cleo shall develop and maintain network and solution architecture diagrams that clearly identify (1) high-risk environments and data flows that may have regulatory compliance impacts, and (2) all termination of network encryption. These architecture diagrams shall be made available to Customer upon request. Cleo shall establish policies and procedures for the labeling, handling, storage, transmission, retention/disposal, and security of Personal Data and objects that contain Personal Data. Mechanisms for label inheritance shall be implemented for objects that act as aggregate containers for Personal Data.

2. Risk Assessments. Cleo shall perform independent reviews or formal risk assessments aligned with the enterprise-wide framework at least annually, to ensure the organization has identified and addressed foreseeable privacy and data security risks, and is compliant with policies, procedures, standards, processing agreements and applicable regulatory requirements (i.e., internal/external audits, certifications, vulnerability and penetration testing). The risk assessment or independent review shall determine the likelihood and impact of all identified risks, using qualitative and quantitative methods.
3. Personnel Training. Cleo shall implement a security awareness training program for all contractors, third-party users, and employees of the organization. All individuals with access to organizational data shall receive appropriate awareness training and regular updates at least annually in organizational procedures, processes, and policies relating to their function relative to the organization.
4. Disciplinary Measures. Cleo shall impose disciplinary measures on personnel for violations of Cleo’s policies and procedures and information security program.
5. Access Controls. Cleo shall maintain logical access controls to limit access to Personal Data and relevant information systems only to authorized personnel and third parties (for example, granting access on a need-to-know basis, use of unique IDs and passwords (which are not vendor-supplied default passwords) for all users, periodic review and revoking/changing access when personnel are terminated or changes in job functions occur), and storing physical records containing Personal Data in locked facilities, storage areas or containers.
6. Secure User Authentication. Cleo’s systems shall support complex and strong passwords. Passwords shall be communicated to the user in an out-of-band method (for example, application passwords can be phoned or mailed to the user, but not provided through the application interface). Passwords must meet the following criteria:
   • For non-privileged users, passwords must be a minimum of 12 characters in length, with at least one (1) alphabetic character, one (1) numeric character and one (1) symbolic character;
   • For privileged users, passwords must be a minimum of 15 characters in length, must consist of letters, numbers and special characters, and must be changed every 180-days.
7. Multi-factor Authentication and VPNs. Cleo shall use multi-factor authentication to authenticate access to Personal Data by Cleo personnel, and permit remote-access to databases only through a Cleo-controlled virtual private network (VPN).
8. Incident Detection and Response. Cleo shall implement and maintain security mechanisms and policies to facilitate timely detection and escalation of actual and potential security incidents, investigation by root cause analysis and incident responses for file integrity (host) and network intrusion detection (IDS) tools.
9. Encryption. Cleo shall establish and implement security mechanisms and policies to prevent the leak of Personal Data in transit and at rest. For Personal Data in transit, all network communication must be encrypted using industry standards. For Personal Data volume/storage, all data must be encrypted to prevent outside snooping, in addition to preventing unauthorized access to data in the environment.
10. Network Security. Cleo shall implement network security controls such as up-to-date firewalls, endpoint protection and anti-malware software with up-to-date virus definitions, operating system patches, layered DMZs, updated intrusion detection/prevention systems and other traffic and event correlation procedures designed to protect systems from intrusion and limit the scope of any successful attack.
11. Vulnerability Management. Cleo shall establish and implement mechanisms for malware protection and virus detection, including providing reasonable assurance that these programs are no more than one major revision behind the current software version, and that all anti-malware programs are capable of detecting, removing, and protecting against all known types of malicious or unauthorized software, and updating antivirus signatures and definitions at least every 12 hours. Cleo shall conduct vulnerability scanning of operating systems, databases, and server applications containing highly restricted and high business impact Personal Data at least daily.
12. Event Logging. Cleo shall ensure that computing systems log, monitor, and collect relevant security event data (for example, source, target, attack type, and payload) for investigation purposes.
13. Highly Restricted Personal Data. With respect to highly restricted Personal Data, Cleo shall implement and maintain policies for the segregation of duties across all infrastructure and application layers (for example, a server administrator or host service account shall not have privileged access to an application running on the server, and an application administrator or application service account shall not have administrative access to the middleware or server configurations). Such policies and procedures shall provide that systems and applications classified as highly restricted shall have a dedicated computing environment isolated using physical or logical methods.
14. Secure Deletion. Cleo shall implement policies and procedures for the secure disposal and complete removal of data from all storage media, ensuring data is not recoverable by any computer forensic means (in a manner that provides reasonable assurance of secure data disposal when the storage media is decommissioned or when the Agreement terminates).
15. Secure Software Development. If applicable, Cleo shall supervise and monitor the development of all software to ensure that such development includes:
    • Security requirements;
    • Independent security review of the environment by a certified individual;
    • Code reviews; and
    • Establishment and documentation of quality monitoring, evaluation, and acceptance criteria for information systems, upgrades, and new versions.
16. Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery. Cleo shall establish, document and adopt a consistent, unified framework for business continuity planning, disaster recovery, plan development, and appropriate communications. Cleo shall ensure all business continuity plans are designed to protect against ransomware attacks, malicious code, denial of service attacks and similar technological issues that could reasonably interrupt the Cleo Services or make the Cleo Services unavailable, and natural and man-made disasters (for example, fire, flood, earthquake, war, volcanic activity, biological hazard, civil unrest, mudslide, tectonic activity, utility services outages, etc.). Such continuity plans shall be subject to testing at least annually or upon significant organizational or environmental changes to ensure their continuing effectiveness.
