3. User Access Control

3.1.

Access Control. Omilia will implement appropriate logical access controls to ensure only authorized Users have access to Customer Data within the OCP Services environment.

3.2.

User Access Management. The End User and/or the Partner is responsible for managing User Access controls within the application. The End User and/or the Partner define(s) the usernames, roles, and password characteristics (length, complexity, and expiration timeframe) for its users. The End User and/or the Partner is entirely responsible for any failure by itself, its agents, contractors or employees (including without limitation all its users) to maintain the security of all usernames, passwords and other account information under its control. Except in the event of a security lapse caused by Omilia’s gross negligence or willful action or inaction, the End User and/or the Partner is entirely responsible for all use of the OCP Services through the respective End User’s and/or the Partner’s usernames and passwords whether or not authorized by the End User and/or the Partner and all charges resulting from such use. The End User and/or the Partner will immediately notify Omilia if the End User and/or the Partner becomes aware of any unauthorized use of the OCP Services.

3.3.

Omilia User Access. Omilia will create individual User accounts for each of Omilia employees or contractors that have a business need to access Customer Data or the End User and/or the Partner’s systems within the OCP Services environment.

4. Business Continuity And Disaster Recovery

4.1.

Disruption Protection. The OCP Services will be deployed and configured in a high-availability design and the OCP Services will be deployed across separate Data Centers to provide optimal availability of the OCP Services. The Data Center environment is physically separated from Omilia’s corporate network environment so that a disruption event involving the corporate environment does not impact the availability of the OCP Services.

4.2.

Business Continuity. Omilia will maintain a corporate business continuity plan designed to ensure that ongoing monitoring and support services will continue in the event of a disruption event involving the corporate environment.

4.3.

Disaster Recovery. The OCP Services will be deployed in a high-availability, redundant design. A disruption event at a single Data Center will trigger a system fail-over to the back-up Data Center to minimize disruption to OCP Services. For these OCP Services, the End User and/or the Partner is responsible for defining specific parameters regarding fail-over. With regard to OCP Services, Omilia employs an active-active-active configuration.
