Description of the technical and organizational measures implemented by the data importer(s) (including any relevant certifications) to ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, and the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons:
System Control
Access to the ScyllaDB’s database is highly restricted in order to ensure that only the relevant personnel who have received prior approval can access the database. ScyllaDB’s has also implemented appropriate safeguards related to remote access and wireless computing capabilities. Employees are assigned private passwords that allow strict access or use to Personal Data, all in accordance with such employee’s position, and solely to the extent such access or use is required. There is constant monitoring of access to the Personal Data and the passwords used to gain access. ScyllaDB is using automated tools to identify non-human login attempts and rate-limiting login attempts to minimize the risk of a brute force attack.
Data Access Control
User authentication measures have been put in place in order to ensure that access to Personal Data is restricted solely to those employees who have been given permission to access it and to ensure that the Personal Data is not accessed, modified, copied, used, transferred or deleted without specific authorization for such actions to be done. Any access to Personal Data, as well as any action performed involving the use of Personal Data requires a password and user name, which is routinely changed, as well as blocked when applicable. Each employee is able to perform actions solely in accordance with the permissions granted to him by ScyllaDB. Furthermore, ScyllaDB conducts ongoing reviews of the employees who have been given authorization to access Personal Data, in order to assess whether such access is still required. ScyllaDB revokes access to Personal Data immediately upon termination of employment. Authorized individuals can only access Personal Data that are located in their individual profiles.
Organizational and Operational Security

ScyllaDB ensures that regular checks are carried out to determine whether it is possible to undo the backup, as required and applicable.
Physical Access Control
ScyllaDB recognizes the significance of physical security controls as a key component in its overall security program. Physical access methods, procedures and controls have been implemented to help prevent unauthorized access to data, assets and restricted areas. Processes are in place to remove access to physical resources when an individual no longer requires access.
In addition, ScyllaDB does not hold any customer data or personal info on site. Physical Access to ScyllaDB office does not provide any privileges to the production environment.
Penetration Testing
