Description

At Wolkvox, software installation on corporate devices is strictly restricted to authorized personnel, as part of the controls defined in the Information Security Management System (ISMS). This measure aims to prevent the installation of unapproved applications, which could compromise the security, integrity, and availability of the company’s systems and data.

To ensure compliance, an up-to-date inventory of permitted applications is maintained, and administrative permissions are exclusively assigned to trained and authorized personnel. Additionally, continuous monitoring is conducted to detect and block any unauthorized installation attempts.
