- to protect that information from known or reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to its security and integrity, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure and all other unlawful forms of processing.

- Updates. Rev will keep its systems and software up-to-date with the latest upgrades, updates, bug fixes, new versions and other modifications necessary to ensure security of the Customer Information.

- Testing. Rev will regularly test its security systems and processes to ensure they meet the requirements of this Security Policy.
- Access Controls. Rev will secure Customer Information, including by complying with the following requirements:
- Rev will restrict access to Customer Information to only those people with a "need-to-know" for a Permitted Purpose.
- Rev will not use manufacturer-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters on any operating systems, software or other systems. Rev will mandate and ensure the use of system-enforced "strong passwords" in accordance with the best practices (described below) on all systems hosting, processing, or that have or control access to, Customer Information and will require that all passwords and access credentials are kept confidential and not shared among personnel.
- Rev will regularly review access logs for signs of malicious behavior or unauthorized access.
