Nationale-Nederlanden supported within business continuity for 5 years

There are specific requirements for insurance companies that have to be met so that the systems and applications used by employees and customers made available are fully secure.

The key aspect is the area of data security, including personal data of customers and a guarantee of data recovery in case of their loss. It’s equally important to ensure continuous availability of systems and applications – also in case of unforeseen events, e.g. a natural disaster or a hacking attack.

Nationale-Nederlanden offers insurance products through a chain of facilities located on the territory of the whole Poland and is obligated to guarantee compliance with all the norms and guidelines of the regulators such as e.g. the Financial Supervision Authority. This area is frequently controlled, and Companies have to continually pay attention to their compliance with the changing law and regulations.

In view of these challenges, Nationale-Nederlanden was searching for a trusted and reliable partner that could provide comprehensive services within the scope of Business Continuity. That is why it decided to establish cooperation with Polcom, one of the most modern data centers in Poland that specializes in providing such services as cloud computing and business continuity, compliant with the regulations of the financial market.

Cooperation with Polcom made it easier for Nationale-Nederlanden to adapt to strict requirements of the regulators on the market.

Polcom was certified within the scope of a proper security level of personal data processing of bank card holders – PCI DSS. Additionally, it has international certificates, including ISO 27001, ISO 27017, it also meets the EU directives PSD2 and GDPR requirements. Thanks to that, Nationale-Nederlanden was able to provide its customers with the highest security level of data and applications, without the need to conduct additional specializations in this area.

Many years of Polcom’s experience turned out to be particularly significant within the scope of establishing procedures and solutions within business continuity services. That is why, within the framework of the cooperation, Nationale-Nederlanden received a comprehensive support in the whole process of service provision on the organizational, procedural and infrastructural levels.
