GDPR - Risk Assessments and Risk Treatment Plan Actions

Extract from UCi2i 27001:2013 - document, "ISMS Risk Assessment Methodology, Treatment & Acceptance v3"

Under the requirements of the GDPR UCi2i undertake risk assessment of their supply chain who have 3rd party access to personal data held by the business. This includes:

  • Internal HR data sets
  • Personal data held on behalf of our interested parties – customers and commercial partners
  • Commercial data processed on behalf of our customer base

Commercial Contact Data – CRM content

Commercial data held by UCi2i is consented to either under the provision of being related to a contract or by legitimate interest. The data must be securely controlled and prevented from unauthorised access using the internal controls established within the ISMS.

Commercial Contract Provision – client data

The requirements for processing data as a 3rd party require formal contractual agreements to be in situ that provide the authorisation from the principal data collector or a partner thereof. It is vital that UCi2i holds details of the authorisation that covers these relationships in order to confirm that processing is lawful.

The configuration of our Video Application Environment (VAE) does not permit the retention and therefore processing of content communicated during video calls. The retention of data associated with this function is restricted to the details of the end point caller and recipient establishing a footprint of call structure and duration but NOT content.

Supply Chain

To assess the capabilities of our supply chain to manage our GDPR obligations for the protection of this data and the prevention of unauthorised access, processing or corruption of the data sets we hold and process we have established an additional risk assessment mechanism.

UCi2i will determine whether the supplier has 3rd party access to our data sets and record this under a ‘GDPR’ field within the RA-RTP.

Should this field be ‘Yes’ then a risk value using our 1-5 matrix and the rating used for the Confidentiality risk to the data will be recorded. Resulting from this risk rating will be a description of the controls applied to determine suitable due diligence actions to address GDPR risk. 

Internal HR Data

The requirements for holding and processing internal HR data are provided by the Consent Form all staff sign to freely provide consent. The controls provided by the ISMS establish suitable information security protection over this data set and its management within the business.

A Personal Data Inventory has been created to map the extent of the data we hold and process plus maintain as part of our obligations to staff under the GDPR.

The training requirements of GDPR are determined within the RA-RTP to demonstrate the application of controls related to staff functions within UCi2i.

Outcomes & Compliance

The expectation of UCi2i is to demonstrate compliance at all times with the requirements of the GDPR. The risk actions will determine the nature of the compliance actions and controls required.

These can include training, application of ISMS controls and suitable due diligence evidence to support the assurances provided by our authorised 3rd party data processors.
