Security Policy

Information Security Management System (ISMS)

At Quantum HQ, we follow all the guidelines as per the ISO 27001:2013 certification for its information security management system. The British Standards Institute’s ISO 27001:2013 is the current best-in-class standard for Information Security Management Systems.

Quantum HQ follows security guidelines such as:

• Data access is restricted to authorized users only
• All methods of data transfers to external sources are controlled
• Removable storage devices like pen drives, smartphones, etc. are blocked on workstations
• Access to Internet sites (email, FTP, online storage etc.) is blocked by the use of an industry-class firewall device
• All workstations are protected by an enterprise-level Antivirus solution, which is continuously updated.
• All operations areas are protected by a magnetic door locking mechanism with access only to department members.
• All main doors are manned by security officers, with 24×7 CCTV camera monitoring
• Users are periodically made aware of IT policies and security measures

Quantum HQ recognizes the need for such security measures and protocols and acknowledges that ISO 27001:2013 indeed ensures appropriate controls to securely protect information and intellectual property. As an ISO 27001:2013 compliant organization, we treat information as the most valuable asset and continually assess our systems to ensure the highest level of information security.

Cyber Security

At Quantum HQ we have set up vigorous IT defences that are designed to contest cyber-attacks. The four basic controls within Cyber Essentials were chosen because, when properly implemented, they will help to protect against unskilled internet-based attackers using commodity capabilities – which are freely available on the internet. The scheme addresses four key controls (below), that when implemented correctly can prevent 80% of cyber-attacks.

1. Boundary firewall and gateways
2. Secure configuration
3. Malware protection
4. Patch management
