Re: European Data Protection Reglementation to take effect on May 25 - 4D compliance?

2018-02-15 Thread Paul Lovejoy via 4D_Tech
Hi Pat and Chip,

Thanks for your replies.

I’ve done a lot of reading up in the meantime. This looks like a big one for 
anyone who’s doing business in Europe. The security requirements are quite 
extensive. 

I don’t have time to get into all of it right now but apparently US companies, 
for example, are spending something like $7 billion to adapt their systems to 
become compliant. Big software packages like Oracle and SAP are compliant. 
Adding compliancy to custom solutions developed in 4D could be very, very 
costly. Fines can be as high as €20 million per case. It’s estimated that the 
European Union could impose around €7 billion in fines in the first year alone.


Scary.


Paul

Re: European Data Protection Reglementation to take effect on May 25 - 4D compliance?

2018-02-12 Thread Jody Bevan via 4D_Tech
Low level data encryption at rest is best achieved with hardware. The major 
server vendors provide RAID controllers that look after this for you on the 
fly. This way the data is always encrypted on the hard drives. That way if 
someone steals the server computer they need that RAID controller in it, and 
know the Windows Admin password to get access to the data. Therefore someone 
cannot take the hard drives only and get the data.

I suspect that is what they are after, but as I have learned with government 
specifications you have to read them, and get their interpretation on them.

The ICO's website was being used to distribute javascript based crytpo
mining malware. Some third party JS library was hacked and they were using
a public CDN version.
