The security of Thrive’s data is of paramount importance… Ensuring the ‘castle walls’ are strong enough is only part of a layered security model – a simple example would be that the strength of the ‘walls’ is irrelevant if the guard leaves the gate open! Integrity is just as important, but the ‘guards’ (IT) don’t have the knowledge and skills to know if the data is correct or incorrect, just if it ‘looks’ right. The people working in the ‘castle’ need to maintain the accuracy and integrity of this so that the right decisions can be taken. This all needs to be done within the rules of the King (ICO). This is Thrive’s IT data ‘story’.
