At All n One we strive to provide the more professional, efficient and most importantly secure system systems to our clients as possible. This document references All n One's compliance to the UK government cloud security principles - [https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/cloud-service-security-principles/cloud-service-security-principles UK Government Cloud Principles]]
All n One utilises SunGard's hosting environment in Parkwest business park Dublin. In this environment SunGard use cisco 5510 firewalls for network protection and Cent OS virtual load balancers utilizing TLS negotiation so we can offer TLS 1.2 to users using the latest browsing software and older versions of TLS for legacy software. (IE6 etc.) We also complete vulnerability tests to ensure All n One's cloud security.

== Asset protection and resilience ==
All instances of the service are segregated by client. This means that one client instance of the software is unable to get any data from another client system. As the system is a SaaS Solution users from the same system will have to log in using different usernames / passwords. All events that occur from the users in a user account are stored in log files so it is possible to review all colleague user activity though through an audit trail functionality built into bxp.For more information on data segregation view - [[The_bxp_Infrastructure#Logical_Infrastructure]]
''The service provider should have a security governance framework that coordinates and directs their overall approach to the management of the service and information within it.''
All n One is 80% compliant with ISO 27001 and Cobit 5. All n One currently requires an external audit for validation. Company policies and procedures are stored in a secure internal network. All n One also supplies the public with a company wikipedia that provides information on the service. Our hosting infrastructure is ISO 27001 complaint which shows that SunGard AS Ireland has developed and implemented a best-in-class information security management system (ISMS) for itself and its customers.

''Services should be designed and developed to identify and mitigate threats to their security.''
For all key bxp operations only All n One staff and SunGard are included. Our software is hosted in a 3rd party data center, provided by SunGard. All other partners are not involved directly in operation or provision of data service. Our other partners include Continuum, NB1 Consult Limited and Sheehan & Associates Accountantsfor other roles such as sales and marketing.. Additional information can be found here - [[All_n_One_Partners_and_Suppliers]]
Clients of the service are told to nominate a security champion for our SaaS Service. This member of staff will be able to use enhanced security features to manage their instance of bxp software (All n One's software). With this the client should be able to manage authentication and separation of access control within the interface. The system champion will also be able to run reports on the actions of users on their instance of bxp through the audit trail functionality.[[User_Profiling_-_Start_Here]] . bxp software also provides a means for data protection automation which can be viewed from the following link - [[Data_Protection_and_Data_Retention]] We also provide a live security notice board and information resource for our clients to refer to in real time.

All n One utilises the latest in TLS technology to provide our clients with the most secure login possible. By utilizing Google's password strength meter API we also have the ability to reject passwords not considered to be "Best" by Google's standards. We also provide the ability to lock down login attempts to only be successful from a particular IP of range of IP's. In order for All n One to manage our hosted servers we have created a secure encrypted VPN connection with SunGard AS. The office in which the operations team work on bxp software development is also fully secured with the latest intevo security system from Kantech which was installed by ADT. - [[Bxp_-_Ballymount_Security]] There are a significant number of security configurations possible which are detailed here in our security matrix of options. [[CC-2-1_Security_and_Custom_Interface_configuration#Matrix]]
All n One complete vulnerability tests on all aspects of the service provided. This is done in order to find vulnerabilities that can then be mitigated against to provide a more secure service. We also provide an API for the software (BEAPIbxp api) which allows third party systems to interact directly with bxp software. The BEAPI bxp api will not grant access by default. It requires EXPLICIT IP address declaration to grant any form of access or engage in any communication. [[Bxp_API]]
''The methods used by the service provider’s administrators to manage the operational service should be designed to mitigate any risk of exploitation that could undermine the security of the service.''
At All n One we review log files from the service and offer a full audit trail service to our clients for their instances. [[Bxp_-_Audit_Logs]]
''Consumers have certain responsibilities when using a cloud service in order for it to remain as secure as possible and for their data to be adequately protected.''
