Accordingly, Deep Vision takes the following technical and administrative measures regarding the personal data it processes:

 

Anti-virus application. On all computers and servers in Deep Vision's information technology infrastructure, a periodically updated anti-virus application is installed.

 

Firewall. The data center and disaster recovery centers hosting Deep Vision servers are protected by periodically updated software-loaded firewalls; the relevant next generation firewalls control the internet connections of all staff and provide protection against viruses and similar threats during this control.

 

VPN. Suppliers can access Deep Vision servers or systems through SSL-VPN defined on Firewalls. A separate SSL-VPN identification has been made for each supplier; with the identification made, the supplier only provides access to the systems that it should use or is authorized to use.

 

User identifications. Deep Vision employees' authorization to Deep Vision systems is limited only to the extent necessary by job descriptions; in case of any change of authority or duty, systemic authorizations are also updated.

Adequate security measures (for situations such as electric leakage, fire, deluge, thievery etc.) are taken based on the nature of the environment where sensitive data is stored.
