ANNEX 1 LIST OF TECHNICAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES

The Data Processor implements, maintains, and monitors a comprehensive written information security program that (i) is designed to protect the Data Processor against anticipated threats or hazards to its confidentiality, integrity, or availability (e.g. unauthorized access, collection, use, copying, modification, disposal, or disclosure, unauthorized, unlawful, or accidental loss, destruction, acquisition, or damage, or any other form of unauthorized processing); and (ii) contains appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (“Information Security Program”). The Information Security Program is designed and implemented to:

Security policies

A set of security policies are approved by the management. Security policies are updated regularly.

Security awareness

Regular security awareness and trainings are provided to all people having access to our information system.

Security awareness and trainings includes:

  • Mandatory courses, for everyone;
  • Additional training, for specific groups of people;
  • Regular communication about security.

Secure Software Development Life Cycle

A Secure Software Development Life Cycle (SSDLC) is implemented and ensure:

  • The confidentiality of the data handle in the systems using:
    • Access control (least privilege principle);
    • Encryption.
  • The availability and resilience of the systems and services provided using:
    • Reliable architecture;
    • Tested backups;
    • Disaster Recovery Plan.
  • The integrity of the systems and services provided but also of the data handled using access control and cryptography (encryption, hash, logging).
  • Code is analysed for security issues and vulnerabilities before being deployed to production.
    The SSDLC ensures to have security and privacy aspects covered from the beginning of the projects.
    In addition, Secure Development Guidelines are followed by the development teams. The Data Processor follows the following guidelines: https://github.com/sportradar/secdevguideline (open source under the MIT license).

Access control

  • Nominative accounts are used.
  • High privilege accounts are used to perform high privilege tasks only.
  • Accesses are granted through an access approval workflow. It follows the principle of least privilege
  • Access requests are documented.
  • A password policy is implemented. Multi factor authentication is implemented on employee’s accounts.

Physical Security

At all locations that collect, process, store and transmit data, physical access controls are implemented to restrict access to authorized personnel only.

Endpoints management

Workstations are managed centrally and includes:

  • A malware protection up to date, at the state of the art, including forensics capabilities.
  • Patches are deployed regularly.
  • Users do not have administrative rights on their workstation, unless it is needed, justified, and approved through the access approval workflow.
  • Disk are encrypted, using industry-standard technologies

Security Breaches

The Data Controller shall inform the Data Processor of any security breach that could impact the Data Processor without undue delay unless prohibited by applicable laws and regulations that degrade service delivery or the Data Controller´s ability to comply with the information security terms and conditions contained in this agreement.

Unless prohibited by applicable law, the Data Controller will provide periodic updates relating to the investigation and resolution of the security breach until it has been resolved, and upon reasonable request, cooperate in investigating such security breach.

Security monitoring

Servers and applications are monitored for security issues. Patches are deployed accordingly.

Security alerts are monitored daily by the security staff. The alerts come from all the security tools deployed (network monitoring, Active Directory, user reports, SIEM, endpoint protection, etc.).

Security audit

Every year, an audit program is established and performed in order to assess the effectiveness of the security measures within the company.

Upon written notice to the Data Controller, the Data Controller shall provide the Data Processor with a copy of their most recent AICPA Service Organization Control Type 2 Report (SOC2), if applicable.

Data security

When personal data are encrypted, industry-standard encryption algorithms are used.

End-user IP addresses are pseudonymised after 12 months from the date of collection. This is achieved by masking the last octet/byte for IPv4 and the last segment for IPv6.

Subcontractors

A security process is documented and implemented in order to perform appropriate due diligence on subcontractors prior to utilizing their services for the delivery of services required by the Agreement.
