Data-in-transit

Removable media includes e.g. flash memories, SD memories, removable storage drives, USB sticks and DVDs.

The organization has defined which removable media is allowed to be used.

The data to be transmitted must be protected using cryptographic methods. The protection of the confidentiality and integrity of the data transmitted applies to the internal and external network and to all systems that can transmit data. These include:

• Servers
• Computers
• Mobile devices
• Printers

The data to be transferred can be protected by physical or logical means.

• Physical protection is obtained from a protected distribution system, for example an optical fiber line, which has sufficient protection to prevent, for example, electromagnetic leakage and controls to prevent its unauthorized use.
• Logical protection is achieved with strong encryption of communications.

Information included in application services transmitted over public networks must be protected against fraudulent and non-contractual activity and against unauthorized disclosure and alteration.

We use strong encryption and security protocols (eg TLS, IPSEC, SSH) to protect confidential information when it is transmitted over public networks in connection with the IT services we develop.

Electronic devices such as cables, monitors, copiers, tablets and smartphones leak electromagnetic radiation, from which it is possible to find out the original transmitted data with the right hardware and, for example, steal the entered username and password.

Openings in the premises' structures (windows, doors, air conditioning) are protected to prevent radiation from escaping. In addition, equipment handling confidential data is located so as to minimize the risk of leakage due to electromagnetic leakage.
