Ensure effective disposition of data per retention schedules, following service sunset. − − * Design systems to not be susceptible to common security vulnerabilities; resilient and can be rebuilt quickly in the event of compromise; and fail secure if the system encounters an error or crashes − * Reduce human intervention and maximize automation of security tasks and processes − ** Integrate and automate security testing to validate code and address vulnerabilities prior to deployments − <br> − − <h4><b>Ensure Secure Access to Systems and Services</b></h4> − * Identify and authenticate individuals, processes and/or devices to an appropriate level of assurance before granting access to information and services − * Separate and compartmentalize user responsibilities and privileges; assign the least set of privileges necessary to complete the job − * Constrain service interfaces to authorized entities (users and devices), with clearly defined roles, and only expose the interfaces necessary to operate the service − * Make use of modern password guidance, and use GC-approved multi-factor authentication where required to stop unauthorized access − (prioritize length over complexity, eliminating expiry, and blacklisting common passwords) − <br><br> − − <h4><b>Maintain Secure Operations</b></h4> − * Integrate aggregate outputs from security assessment and authorization activities into security architecture lifecycle processes, to ensure reference artefacts remain relevant and valid − * Continuously monitor system events and performance in order to detect, prevent, and respond to attacks − * Design processes to operate and manage services securely, and establish processes and mechanisms to respond effectively to security events − ** Collect transaction logs at infrastructure and application levels to support automated root-cause analysis and performance tuning − ** Include an audit function in information systems. Use a trusted time source and protect audit logs from manipulation − * Establish processes to monitor security advisories, and apply security-related patches and updates to reduce exposure to vulnerabilities.
