ANNEX III: TECHNICAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES TO ENSURE THE SECURITY OF THE DATA

Access Control

1. The Tricent for Google Workspace service is hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and the Tricent for Microsoft 365 service is hosted on Microsoft Azure (Azure). Additionally, Tricent Security Group A/S maintains contractual relationships with vendors in order to provide the Services in accordance with our Data Processing Agreement. Tricent Security Group A/S relies on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programs in order to protect data processed or stored by these vendors.

2. Under GCP and Azure shared responsibility model, the physical and environmental security controls are maintained by Google and Microsoft and audited for SOC 2 Type I and ISO 27001, 27017, 17018 compliance, among other certifications by an AICPA Accredited third-party public trust audit firm.

3. Tricent Security Group A/S enforces a uniform password policy for its technology infrastructure components. Customers who interact with the Tricent Security Group A/S user and administrative interfaces must authenticate via their own single sign-on identity provider and associated strong identity policies. Additionally, internal non-customer access to systems that house and can expose access to personal information is restricted to those users whose job function absolutely requires access to this data, and the principle of least privilege is applied.

4. Customer data is stored in multi-tenant storage systems accessible to Tricent SecurityGroup A/S’s customers only via application user and admin interfaces and application programming interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. The authorization model in each of Tricent Security GroupA/S’s products uses role-based access control to ensure that only appropriate individuals can access relevant resources. A systems administrator approves internal user access to the infrastructure provider for authorized personnel. Access approvals and modifications to the user access list are logged.

5. Some functionality may be accessed via the Tricent Security Group A/S data API. API access requires authentication via an API key. API keys can be further constrained by customers to reduce the set of capabilities that a given API key is authorized to invoke. These API invoked activities are logged within the Tricent Security Group A/S administration web interface.

6. A subset of Tricent Security Group A/S’s employees has access to the products and to customer data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective customer support, to troubleshoot potential problems, to detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. All such requests are logged. Employees are granted access by role, and reviews of high-risk privilege grants are initiated regularly. System owners conduct quarterly user access reviews of production servers, databases, and applications to validate internal user access is commensurate with job responsibilities. Identified access changes are tracked to remediation.

7. Background checks are performed on new hires before the new hire's start date as permitted by local laws. The Human Resources team reviews the results and takes any appropriate action deemed necessary. Tricent Security Group A/S has an established code of conduct outlining ethical expectations, behavior standards, and ramifications of non-compliance, and requires internal personnel to acknowledge it.

Transmission Control

1. In-transit: Tricent Security Group A/S uses Transport Layer Security version 1.2 or better paired with appropriately selected cipher suites on every one of its login Interfaces and API Endpoints. Tricent Security Group A/S’s HTTPS implementation uses industry-standard algorithms and certificates, specifically 256-bit AES Encryption in Galois Counter Mode, aka AES-256-GCM.

2. At-rest: Tricent Security Group A/S stores user passwords following policies that support industry-standard practices for security. For example, passwords are stored as non-reversible hashes using a properly selected password-hashing function.

3. All customer data is encrypted at rest using Tricent Security Group A/S’ privately generated and controlled data encryption keys - it is not technically possible for subprocessors to decrypt customer data.

Input Control

1. Tricent Security Group A/S implements intrusion detection and infrastructure monitoring to detect threats to the network environment. Tricent Security Group A/Suses logging review and alerting as well as application performance monitoring software to collect data from servers and endpoints, detect potential security threats or unusual system activity, monitor system performance, and track resource utilization.

2. IP Filtering (Internet Protocol version 4) configurations ensure available networking ports and protocols are restricted to approved business rules. Web application firewalls ensure only appropriate messages are reviewed by our web-facing API Interfaces. Distributed Denial of Service controls protect Tricent Security Group A/S applications from network OSI layers 3, 4 and 7 attacks. Tricent Security Group A/S’s DDoS provider also protects Tricent Security Group A/S from common layer 7 attacks and removes traffic from known bad actors.

3. To maintain separation of duties, one engineer plans and prepares a change request, and then a second individual engineer reviews, tests, and approves configuration changes before the changes are deployed into production. Tricent Security Group A/S has developed policies and procedures governing the system development life cycle, including documented policies for tracking, testing, approving, and validating changes.

4. Tricent Security Group A/S engages a qualified third-party penetration testing vendor to conduct a network and application penetration test of the production environment at least annually. The intent of the penetration tests is to identify and resolve foreseeable attack vectors and potential abuse scenarios.

5. Tricent Security Group A/S’s infrastructure is configured to log information about system behavior, traffic, system authentication, and other application requests. System tools monitor company load balancers and notify appropriate personnel of any events or outages based on predetermined criteria. Any identified issues are tracked through resolution in accordance with the Incident Management Policy.

6. Tricent Security Group A/S maintains a record of known security incidents that includes description, dates and times of relevant activities, and incident disposition. Suspected and confirmed security incidents are investigated by security, operations, or support personnel; and appropriate resolution steps are identified and documented. For any confirmed incidents, Tricent Security Group A/S will take appropriate steps to minimize product and Customer damage or unauthorized disclosure.

7. If Tricent Security Group A/S becomes aware of unlawful access to non-Tricent Security Group A/S data stored within its Services, Tricent Security Group A/S will: 1) notify the affected customers of the incident; 2) provide a description of the steps Tricent Security Group A/S is taking to resolve the incident; and 3) provide status updates to the customer contact, as Tricent Security Group A/S deems necessary. Notification(s) of incidents, if any, will be delivered to one or more of the customer’s contacts in a form Tricent Security Group A/S selects, which may include via email or telephone.

Availability Control

1. Tricent Security Group A/S maintains a vulnerability management program to detect and remediate system vulnerabilities. Vulnerability scans are executed daily on production systems. Any critical or high-risk vulnerabilities are tracked through resolution.

2. Infrastructure availability: Tricent Security Group A/S’s Cloud Service Provider’s infrastructure services use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure a minimum of 99.9% uptime. The providers maintain a minimum of N+1 redundancy to power, network, and HVAC services.

3. Fault tolerance: Backup and replication strategies are designed to ensure redundancy and fail-over protections during a significant processing failure. Customer data is backed up to offsite data centers.

4. Online replicas and backups: Tricent Security Group A/S databases are designed to replicate data between no less than 1 primary and 1 secondary database. Database replicas are hosted in separate availability zones.

5. Availability zones have their own separate redundant infrastructure services. All databases are backed up and maintained using at least industry-standard methods.6. Tricent Security Group A/S’s products are designed to ensure redundancy and seamless failover. The server instances that support the products are also architected with a goal to prevent single points of failure. This design assists Tricent Security Group A/S operations in maintaining and updating the product applications and backend while limiting downtime.

For transfers to (sub-)processors, also describe the specific technical and organizational measures to be taken by the (sub-)processor to be able to provide assistance to the controller.

Subprocessors engaged by Tricent will have a range of technical and organizational measures that offer an equivalent level of protection to the Personal Information that they process, these will be of a comparable nature to those described above.
