Information Security Policy

Unique Support Services recognises its responsibility to protect information owned by or in the care of USS. In conjunction with our IT provider, Cortec IT, this policy provides a framework for the management of information security. It applies to all staff, systems and data, and to any sub-contractor or third party working on our behalf.

We are committed to ensuring that

• The integrity of information is maintained, accurate and fit for purpose
• Information is available to those who need it, without disruption to the business
• Confidentiality is not breached
• The reputation of USS and its clients and suppliers is safeguarded

Personal data is handled in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation. Risk assessments are carried out by Paul Vincent, Managing Director; users with access to confidential information are vetted; devices are encrypted; passwords are changed regularly and never shared; lost devices are remotely wiped; and penetration tests are carried out annually by a specialist third party.
