DS5.2:

DS 5.2 IT Security Plan

Control Objective:

Controls provide reasonable assurance that financial reporting systems and subsystems are appropriately secured to prevent unauthorized use, disclosure, modification, damage or loss of data.

Translate business information requirements, IT configuration, information risk action plans and information security culture into an overall IT security plan. The plan is implemented in security policies and procedures together with appropriate investments in services, personnel, software and hardware. Security policies and procedures are communicated to stakeholders and users.

Rationale — Managing systems security includes both physical and logical controls that prevent unauthorized access. These controls typically support authorization, authentication, nonrepudiation, data classification and security monitoring. Deficiencies in this area could significantly impact financial reporting. For instance, insufficient controls over transaction authorization may result in inaccurate financial reporting.

Risk Association Control Activities:

1. Risk: Insufficient control over transaction authorization may result in

inaccurate financial reporting.

a. SOX.2.0.17:'''SOX.2.0.17''' An information security policy exists and has been approved by an appropriate level of executive management.

2. Risk: Financial systems fail due to a lack of operational procedures being executed.

a. SOX.2.0.2: Controls provide reasonable assurance that IT daily operation procedures are executed.

3. Risk: Third party processors create unacceptable control risks to the Company.

a. SOX.2.0.5: Selection of Vendors for outsourced services is performed in accordance with the organization's vendor management policy.

4. Risk: Users may have inappropriate access to the application system.

a. SOX.5.1.1: Access to the application system is appropriately restricted to prevent unauthorized activity.

5. PCI-12.1.1 Addresses all requirements in this specification.

6. PCI-12.1.2 Includes an annual process that identifies threats, and vulnerabilities, and results in a formal risk assessment.

7. PCI-12.1.3 Includes a review at least once a year and updates when the environment changes.

8. PCI.12.2 Develop daily operational security procedures that are consistent with requirements in this specification (e.g., user account maintenance procedures, log review procedures).

9. PCI-12.3.1 Explicit management approval.

10. PCI-12.3.2 Authentication for use of the technology.

11. PCI-12.3.3 A list of all such devices and personnel with access.

12. PCI-12.3.4 Labeling of devices with owner, contact information, and purpose.

13. PCI-12.3.5 Acceptable uses of the technology.

14. PCI-12.3.6 Acceptable network locations for these technologies.

15. PCI-12.3.7 A list of company-approved products.

16. PCI-12.3.8 Automatic disconnect of modem sessions after a specific period of inactivity.

17. PCI-12.3.9 Activation of modems for vendors only when needed by vendors, with immediate deactivation after use.

18. PCI-12.3.10 When accessing cardholder data remotely via modem, disable storage of cardholder data onto local hard drives, floppy disks or other external media. Also disable cut-and paste, and print functions during remote access.

19. PCI.12.4: Ensure the security policy and procedures clearly define information security responsibilities for all employees and contractors.
