​

This Annex includes a Description of the technical and organizational measures implemented by JobSync, to ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, and the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons:

The security objectives of the Client are identified and managed to maintain a high level of security and consists of the following (concerning all data assets and systems):

  • Availability

Information and associated assets should be accessible to authorized users when required. The computer network must be resilient. JobSync must detect and respond rapidly to incidents (such as viruses and other malware) that threaten the continued availability of assets, systems, and information.

  • Confidentiality

Ensuring that information is only accessible to those authorized to access it, on a need-to-know-basis.

  1. Data Security Measures. JobSync will maintain technical and organizational controls that ensure proper security methods are used to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure of, or access to Client Data that are no less rigorous than accepted industry practices as set forth in the AICPA SOC2 framework and Trust Services Criteria and shall ensure that all such safeguards, including the manner in which Client Data is created, collected, accessed, received, used, stored, processed, disposed of, and disclosed, comply with Applicable Data Protection Laws, as well as the terms and conditions of the Agreement. Without limiting JobSync’s obligation under the preceding sentence, JobSync’s safeguards for the protection of Client Data shall include the following data security controls on all systems, networks and devices that contain Client Data or access Client’s systems:

    1. Written Information Security Program. JobSync will implement and maintain a comprehensive written information security program, procedures, and practices that comply with this DPA and include appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards in compliance with Applicable Data Protection Laws and that adhere to industry best standards. Such information security program must be reasonably designed to: (i) ensure the security, integrity, availability, and confidentiality of Client Data and Personal Information; (ii) address any anticipated or reasonably likely threats or hazards to the privacy, security, availability, and/or integrity of Client Data and Personal Information; (iii) prevent any Security Incident; and (iv) ensure the proper disposal of Personal Information. 

  2. Access Controls. JobSync will implement measures to: (A) abide by the “principle of least privilege,” pursuant to which access to Client Data by JobSync personnel will be designed to be solely on a need-to-know basis; and (B) promptly terminate the access of JobSync personnel to Client Data when such access is no longer required for performance under the Agreement. 

    1. Systems. With respect to its systems, JobSync shall implement and maintain, at a minimum, the following authentication protocols: 

      1. All access to systems, applications, or other network resources that provides the ability to access Client Data shall be controlled by an authentication method involving a minimum of a unique user ID/password combination.

      2. Where possible, privileged users and administrators must use multi-factor authentication.

      3. System stored passwords may never be stored in clear text.

      4. All passwords must be complex and not easy to guess or crack. Effectiveness of authentication must be tested on a regular basis to ensure that unauthorized authentication is not easily permitted.

      5. Where possible, remote network access must be secured by multi-factor authentication.

      6. All activity performed under a User ID is the responsibility of the individual assigned to that User ID. Users shall not share their User ID/password with others or allow other employees to use their User ID/password to perform actions.

      7. Use of generic user accounts shall not be permitted.

    2. Client Assets. With respect to access to Client Data, systems, and equipment (“Client Assets”), JobSync shall implement and maintain at a minimum the following protocols:

      2. Requests to access Client Assets must be documented and approved only based on a business need.

      3. JobSync must review and limit user access to Client Assets on a periodic basis.

    3. Logging. Security relevant events, including, but not limited to, login failures, use of privileged accounts, changes to access models or file permissions, modification to installed software or the operating system, changes to user permissions, or privileges or use of any privileged system function, shall be logged on all systems and reviewed on no less than a weekly basis for suspicious activity. Security logs shall be retained for a minimum of 90 calendar days. Access to security logs shall be restricted to authorized persons.

  3. Vulnerability Management. JobSync will use reasonable measures to: (A) periodically use automated vulnerability scanning tools to scan JobSync’s systems for vulnerabilities; and (B) implement patch management and software update tools as made available by the providers of those tools. JobSync will conduct periodic internal and external Penetration Testing of systems that store or process Client Data to identify vulnerabilities and attack vectors that can be used to exploit those systems. Identified vulnerabilities shall be addressed as part of JobSync’s vulnerability management process. 

    1. Non-Intrusive Scans. At its own expense, Client may periodically perform Non-Intrusive Scans of the systems on which any data or information that is provided or made available to JobSync by Client or obtained by JobSync in the performance of this Agreement – including, but not be limited to, Client Data – is held using a third-party commercially-available security testing tool to provide a vulnerability assessment report. 

    2. Penetration Testing. At least once a year and at JobSync’s sole cost and expense, JobSync will engage an independent third-party to conduct Penetration Testing on JobSync’s systems on which Client Data is held. Such Penetration Testing will evaluate the security controls of the application, host, and network layers used to provide any applicable products and services in accordance with industry standard methodologies. 

  4. Security Segmentation. JobSync will use reasonable measures designed to monitor, detect, and restrict the flow of information on a multilayered basis using tools such as firewalls, proxies, and network-based intrusion detection systems. JobSync shall use industry standard firewalls to segregate trusted from untrusted networks. JobSync must test the effectiveness of its network segmentation on a periodic basis and promptly disable any unneeded network services.

  5. Encryption. JobSync, and all JobSync affiliates and subcontractors, must encrypt Client Data in transit and at rest using industry standard encryption tools – including without limitation, data used for purposes of backup and authentication. JobSync must have in place encryption key management practices to ensure the confidentiality of Client Data. Keys must be protected from unauthorized use, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. If a private key is compromised, all associated certificates must be revoked.

  6. Physical Safeguards.  JobSync will maintain physical access controls designed to secure the JobSync-managed physical premises where the relevant JobSync computing environment used to process any Client Data is located, including an access control system that enables JobSync to control physical access to each JobSync facility. JobSync shall reasonably protect physical locations in which any Client Data is stored, or Client-owned equipment is located from physical dangers, including but not limited to: physical intrusion, unlawful and unauthorized physical access; heating, ventilation, or air conditioning problems; power failures or outages (i.e., uninterrupted power service expected); fire; theft; and natural disasters (reasonable protection).

  7. JobControl

    1. JobSync will ensure all Employees, customers, vendors and applicable processors are all signed on binding agreements all of which include applicable data provisions and data security obligations. Employees are bound to comply with this Security Policy in addition to internal security policies and procedures and breaking or not complying with such shall result in disciplinary actions.

    2. JobSync agrees that it maintains adequate training programs to ensure that its employees and any others acting on its behalf are aware of and adhere to its information security program.
