Confidentiality and contracting
Appropriate confidentiality, intellectual-property, data-processing, subprocessor and security terms should be agreed based on the work and the parties’ responsibilities.
Trust, security & ownership
Clear responsibilities are the foundation of trust.
Security, ownership and continuity should be discussed before delivery, not discovered when something changes.
This page explains the principles. The exact controls, responsibilities and evidence are agreed for the engagement.
Ownership and access
What the commercial agreement should define.
- Ownership of custom code and deliverables
- Treatment of pre-existing components and third-party licences
- Repository and environment access
- Cloud-account and deployment responsibility
- Data ownership, location and processing roles
- Documentation, export and handover requirements
Security and data handling
Covered in discovery, evidenced in delivery.
The engagement discovery should cover data classification, access, authentication, development environments, devices, backups, logging, vulnerabilities, third parties, incident routes and retention.
What we publish
We publish only the controls that are currently implemented and can be evidenced. Certification and insurance positions are confirmed in writing during due diligence rather than displayed as badges.
Confidentiality, continuity and due diligence
Continuity and transfer
Documentation, shared access and regular knowledge transfer reduce dependency on one person or supplier. The handover route should be planned from the start where transfer is a likely outcome.
Due diligence
Security and delivery documentation can be made available during an appropriate due-diligence process where current and relevant.
Discuss security and ownership.
