DC-Services UK Cyber Security

Access Governance and Identity

We operate under a strict 'least-privilege' access model. Identity and Access Management (IAM) protocols are enforced across all internal platforms, requiring multi-factor authentication (MFA) for every point of entry. Our identity framework tracks the entire lifecycle of a user account, from automated provisioning to immediate deprovisioning upon role change or departure. By maintaining granular control over who can interact with specific documentation sets, we minimize the risk of internal leakage and ensure that client records are seen only by authorized institutional actors.

• ›Written intake brief signed by the client
• ›Conflicts screen and independence check
• ›Defined deliverable list and retention envelope

Supervisory QA and Monitoring

Supervisory oversight of our cyber security posture is conducted through continuous monitoring and periodic independent audits. We employ Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools to aggregate logs from all infrastructure components, providing real-time visibility into the health and security of our ecosystem. Our internal QA teams review security events to identify patterns of attempted intrusion or policy violations. This supervisory layer ensures that our security controls remain effective and evolve in response to the changing digital landscape, providing institutions with verifiable proof of our commitment to safety.

• ›Two-stage review before release

Cyber Boundarries and Limitations

It is vital for counterparties to understand that DC-SERVICES is a provider of documentation and risk intelligence, not a cyber security vendor. Our responsibilities are limited to the protection of the data within our own custody and the security of the platforms we operate. We do not provide remediation for client-side breaches, nor do we offer penetration testing for third-party systems. Our security remit ends where the client's internal network begins, and we expect institutional clients to maintain their own robust cyber defences when interacting with our digital outputs.

Maintaining Continuous Integrity

The cyber security landscape is dynamic, requiring constant vigilance and iteration of our defensive strategies. DC-SERVICES remains committed to investing in the latest security technologies and training to ensure our role as a trusted partner in the digital asset space remains unchallenged. We provide transparency to our institutional clients through security summaries and participation in due diligence reviews. For entities requiring more detailed information regarding our specific security certifications or to request a clarity check on our protocols, our compliance team is available for direct engagement.
