5. Communications and Operations Management. The following operational controls will be implemented to protect the systems used to access Personally Identifiable Information. 

5.1. Patch Management.  DataVisor shall establish a patch management process that ensures that all systems used to access Personally Identifiable Information, including network devices, servers, and desktop/laptop computers, are patched against known security vulnerabilities in a reasonable period of time based on the criticality of the patch and sensitivity of data accessed.  The following schedule defines the acceptable limits for testing and applying patches.

  • HIGH (e.g., high, critical, etc) – 1-5 business days
  • MEDIUM – 5 – 30 business days
  • LOW – 30 – 60 business days
