ANNEX 1 — GENERAL TECHNICAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES
The in-manas system itself is developed at IN-MANAS in the company building and, after testing with artificially generated data on internal servers, is imported into the environment in the data center. Production system (data center), test system (data center) and development system (IN-MANAS) are operated separately. An update is usually carried out gradually.
- ACCESS CONTROL
- The virtualized server infrastructure is provided by Hall AG (H Augasse 6, 6060 Hall in Tyrol). The data center meets international guidelines for IT security. Access to the data center is only possible for Hall AG customers under supervision. During the visit, an official identity document must be left at the reception.
- IN-MANAS ACCESS CONTROL: CUSTOMER PLATFORM
- CUSTOMER PLATFORM (IN-MANAS.COM)
- The platform has access controls that can be set up by the administrator himself.
- Password security based on complexity as usual in industry
- Session — timeout/automatic — logout control
- Securing traffic over HTTPS
- IN-MANAS SERVER IN THE DATA CENTER (LIVE & TEST)
- Only IN-MANAS system administrators responsible for the project have administrative access to the servers. System administrators can only access it in the following way:
- About the IN-MANAS intranet: with a 1-factor authentication process, only via the SSHv2 protocol
- Access to the IN-MANAS intranet is only available from the IN-MANAS office: Bienerstraße 4.
- Or via a VPN connection to the IN-MANAS office network, which is reserved for IN-MANAS system administrators
- Over the Internet: with a 2-factor authentication process, only via the SSHv2 protocol
- Employees of mynet GmbH only have access to the servers for maintenance and support of the technical infrastructure after consultation with IN-MANAS administrative staff.
Database access: Access to the in-Manas platform's MySQL database is only provided via the In-Manas Intranet. The IN-MANAS system administration team and the responsible developer of the platform have access to this web interface.
- IN-MANAS internal systems:
- password procedure (with numbers, letters and minimum length)
- Deactivation of accounts for inactive employees before leaving the company
- ACCESS CONTROL
At least the following structure of the authorization concept and access rights as well as their monitoring and logging is provided:
- Access for the system administration team: The system administration team has full administrative access to the responsible server and database. After the start of entering personal data (at the same time as the so-called “Go Live” of the IN-manas platform), administrative access to the IN-MANAS system administrators is only permitted in an emergency and after consultation with the appropriate project manager.
- Access for the responsible developer: Until the platform goes live, the responsible developer has access to the web server's files, which are withdrawn from him after the start of the project. Access to the database remains available, but is only permitted in an emergency and after consultation with the appropriate project manager.
- Access for the project manager: The project manager has access to the admin area of the platform for the entire duration, which can also be deactivated after consultation.
- in-manas: customer platform
- IN-MANAS INTERNAL SYSTEMS, TEST AND PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
- TRANSFER CONTROL
At a minimum, the following measures are taken when transporting, transmitting or storing on data carriers (manually or electronically) and during subsequent verification:
- in-manas: customer platform
- SSL encryption of all connections to in-manas, http requests are rewritten to https
- The export of personal data is only possible for the administrator.
- Logging of all essential behavioral elements see point 5 “Input control”
- IN-MANAS INTERNAL SYSTEMS, TEST AND PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Encryption during updates: All data carriers that store personal data — in particular the data from the web server and the databases — are stored on AES256bit encrypted data carriers. Backups that are transferred to a third-party system for further backup are encrypted before transfer with a separate AES256bit key, which is only used for the corresponding one-manas platform, and transferred via SFTP via a secure SSHv2 connection
- INPUT CONTROL
The following measures to subsequently check whether and by whom data has been entered, changed or removed (deleted) are at least in place.
- IN-MANAS: CUSTOMER PLATFORM
- Logging of all relevant activities with time stamp and author, e.g.
- Login
- Entering, changing ideas
- Reviews (Quick/Detailed Review)
- Visitors to ideas and profiles
- Communication on the bulletin board
- No physical deletion of data, but via “flags”
- ORDER CONTROL
At least the following measures (technical/organizational) to differentiate competencies between client and contractor are in place.
- IN-MANAS is offered technically and functionally by IN-MANAS as a standard product. All organizational measures within the framework of this standard are described for the client within the framework of this contract and, upon request, before the conclusion of the contract. By placing a written order, the customer agrees that the present model does not provide for any customer-specific adjustment, neither technical nor data protection law, and that the documented requirements are suitable for the intended use.
- All regulations regarding data protection are made in advance and with all customers to the same extent (standard). The conditions set out in the written order by the customer and order confirmation between the client and IN-MANAS apply. If data protection or terms and conditions are updated due to technical or legal developments, IN-MANAS may provide an updated version. IN-MANAS will draw the customer's attention to this and identify the changes. If the latter does not file an objection within a review period of 4 weeks, the new conditions are considered accepted. Otherwise, the existing ones will continue to exist.
- The supplementary data protection agreement, including this appendix, is considered to be a contract with regard to order data processing
IN-MANAS collects and processes personal data exclusively to the extent necessary for the order. For control purposes, the customer receives regular reports on the collected data and its processing by appointment. For control by the client, it is possible to transmit appropriate server logs to the client.
- AVAILABILITY CONTROL
The following data backup measures (physical/logical) are minimally available:
- All hard drives are backed up using RAID methods
- Backup — Scope:
- Complete server backup (once a day) (backup A)
- A daily full backup (full backups are kept for at least 14 days (backup B)
- Redundant network connection
- virus protection
- Uninterruptible power supply
- All backups except the final backup are deleted after completion. All backups from Backup A expire after seven days.
- The following restore strategy is used in case of failure:
- In case of an error: restore from daily backups (backup B)
- Disaster recovery: recovery from server backups (backup A)
In addition, in order to protect personal data from other destruction, backups are carried out according to the following plan:
- All backups are unencrypted — but on an encrypted file system — on the server responsible for the IN-MANAS platform to ensure the fastest possible restore process.
- An extra encrypted copy of the backups is stored in a separate storage area from the responsible server.
- The entire server responsible for the IN-MANAS platform is backed up once a day. The technology used is so-called ZFS Snapshots. (Backup A)
The servers of the IN-manas platform are monitored 24/7 by a monitoring system. In the event of an outage, the responsible project manager and the IN-MANAS system administration team will be notified of the failure by e-mail as well as via SMS. The response times are the working hours of the responsible IN-MANAS system administration team (Mon-Fr. 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.), unless otherwise agreed with the project manager.
- SEPARATION CONTROL
At least the following separation measures are in place.
