Data security & governance

Data security and governance. Controls, ownership, and evidence — the operating structure that keeps client data defensible under audit.

Layered controls, reviewed on a schedule.

• Identity — Unique named accounts, multi-factor authentication, and least-privilege role assignment reviewed quarterly.
• Encryption — TLS 1.2 or higher in transit; AES-256 at rest across storage and backup.
• Monitoring — Access logging, alerting on anomalous activity, and retained audit trails per client environment.
• Endpoint — Managed devices with full-disk encryption, enforced patching, and remote wipe capability.
• Vendor management — Subprocessors assessed before engagement and reviewed annually against the same standard.
• Continuity — Documented backup, recovery, and incident response procedures, tested at defined intervals.

Someone is accountable for every dataset.

Governance fails when ownership is ambiguous. Every engagement names a data owner on the client side and a delivery lead on ours, and every material decision about a dataset is recorded against those names.

• Documented data dictionary and lineage for converted datasets
• Change control on transformation rules, with versioned mapping documents
• Reconciliation evidence retained and delivered at project close
• Quarterly access review with client sign-off
