SECURITY AND RECOVERY PROTOCOLS FOR EAGLE COUNTY
Connect vity and Security
Enabling connectivity and managing data security risk.
Commun_cation among components is performed most often by REST and SOAP -based APIs, using
industry- standard security protocols. Non- API communication will be done securely, such as through
SFTP. All components will be cloud hosted and programmably managed, deployed, and scaled.
Traditional security and system administration plus `machine as application' approaches will ensure
maintainability, auditability, scalability, and security.
Snugg H me utilization of internal and external network environments; hardware and
software equirements and costs.
Our prim platform is an integrated system of web services with a robust and documented API. Snugg
Home se ers are deployed on the Amazon EC2 infrastructure and have a nightly backup plan in place in
case of catastrophic failure. Snugg Home will be responsible for all server costs for the lifetime of the
contract ` and extensions identified in Attachment C.
Our support platform is Software as a Service (SaaS), where they host and manage all software needs. We
do not include the purchase of an ongoing SaaS license in our pricing. If requested, Snugg Home can
purchase e required SaaS license(s) and charge the program at cost for these licenses.
Network 1 anagement, monitoring, and alerting capabilities and approach to ensuring
security . f assets and networks.
We use ' •• anon Web Services' high - quality up -time monitoring system that alerts us through email and
SMS of . y interruptions in service. Firewalls, security tools and encryption techniques are industry-
standard I d used by many of the largest applications on the internet.
Details r. garding the most recent security assessment of the Snugg Home environment
performe . by a recognized third party.
Dojo4, o technology partner, has done a full assessment of the security of our platform. Dojo4 has
extensiv: experience in high - security web applications. One of their current applications is an online,
sharable • assword and text- encryption application. This expertise in the security domain allows us to stay
up -to -da with the latest best practices. Exchange of sensitive data will happen over SSL.
The Snu: g Home approach to information security including but not limited to incident
identific. ion, escalation, client involvement, breach stoppage, remediation, and
reporting
While w: take great care in preventing security breaches to our data, we have a Security Incident
Respons: Plan in the event that it does. Dojo4 and their network of security experts are our primary
Compute Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT). Our plan includes the following phases:
• ' lert Phase: Detection from a variety of sources
30
451785_3
• Triage Phase: Examine evidence of a security breach to determine false positives and severity of
real breaches.
• Response Phase: Gather evidence to determine the extent of data loss, damage or transfer.
Examine all systems connected to the breached system to determine full extent.
• Outreach: Work with key stakeholders, such as program administrators, to determine the best
approach with homeowners regarding lost or stolen data
• Recovery Phase: Fix and restore systems from backup, patch security holes, test for
vulnerabilities and proper functioning.
Compliance with utility IT and data security requirements and will provide a certificate to
utility partners upon request.
Through our contract with Connecticut's Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge, Snugg Home has
successfully negotiated security and data sharing contracts with the utilities involved in that program. We
look forward to assisting in similar negotiations with associated utilities for the program.
Risk Mitigation
Acceptance of risk and liability in service performance.
We will manage risk and liability in the following ways for the program:
Risk Reduction: By building small, iterative, deliverable software units, we reduce our risk of bugs and
insecure software problems are found almost in real -time, and they are able to be fixed before additional
software functionality is built on top of these bugs. It allows us to constantly refine and test our security
models as well.
Risk Sharing:
• Partners: Our platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services with the highest- quality
infrastructure and support. With our long history of projects with them, we have tested their
ability to immediately mitigate problems as they arise before they become a liability.
• Insurance: We carry web liability insurance for each project.
Risk Retention: Because we are a national platform for managing home efficiency improvements, we are:
• Motivated to reduce risk and our liability for our software services
• Able to absorb the loss in the form of additional developer time and consulting. In other words,
if the development and complexity of program deliverables are much greater than we
anticipated, we are more likely to be able to absorb that development cost than a vendor that is
programming a custom solution for a single client. In the latter case, often the program either
fails or the client pays for the cost overruns.
Risk Avoidance: Wherever feasible, we practice risk avoidance. For example, we use a trusted,
established 3rd party user authentication system instead of building our own. They accept risk and
liability (and it lowers our development costs).
Disaster Recovery
Disaster recovery and business continuity systems and procedures in place to ensure
uninterrupted project delivery. Customer notifications procedures should a disaster be
declared.

Snugg Home software is hosted on a cloud computing platform, which means multiple instances of our
data are a ive at once. So if one goes down, other servers are there to back it up immediately. Hourly
backups are made offline and can restore our databases within minutes to hours. We have access to
highest level support with our provider at Amazon Web Services. Customer notifications in case of
disaster can be made through email, SMS (if they have opted in), or if needed, by snail mail.
