Information security principles
Systemic approach
In Noventiq Group assets are considered to be interrelated and mutually influencing components of a single system. In case of information security threats, the maximum possible amount of system behavior scenarios is taken into the account. The protection system is built taking into account not only all known channels of obtaining unauthorized access to information, but also considering the possibility of appearance of fundamentally new ways to implement security threats.
Complexity approach
A wide range of measures, methods and means of information protection is used in order to ensure information security. Their complex using implies the coordination of heterogeneous means in constructing the integrated protection system which blocks all the existing channels of threats and containing no weaknesses at the junctions of its separate components.
The Separation Principle
One cannot rely on a single protective line, no matter how safe it may seem. Information security system is constructed in such a way that the most protected security zone is placed inside other protected zones.
The principle of equal strength
The effectiveness of protection mechanisms must not be reduced to nothing by a weak link, arising as a result of underestimation of the real threats or the use of inadequate protection measures.
The Principle of Continuity
In Noventiq Group the ensuring of information security is a continuous and purposeful process, which implies taking the appropriate measures at all stages of the asset lifecycle.
The principle of reasonable sufficiency
Noventiq Group Management assumes that it is impossible to create an "absolute" protection of assets. Therefore the choice of means of assets protection adequate for real existing threats (i.e. providing the allowable level of potential damage in case of threats implementation) and is based on risk analysis.
The principle of legality
During the selection and implementation of measures and means to ensure the information security of the Noventiq Group strictly observes the legislation of the Russian Federation, the requirements of normative legal and technical documents in the field of Noventiq Group information security.
The controllability principle
All information security management and assurance processes in Noventiq Group must be controlled, i.e., it should be possible to monitor and measure the processes and components, to identify in time the information security violations and to take appropriate measures.
The principle of personal responsibility
Each employee is responsible for ensuring the assets safety within his powers.
