Physical & Cybersecurity
Waste Connections, together with its operating subsidiaries, maintains a robust internal physical and cybersecurity policy (PCSP), establishing the overriding principles and policies governing the Company's information systems standards and practices.
These principles and policies, which are comprehensively outlined in the PCSP, define the Company's objectives for managing information systems operations. They represent the plans and protocols for achieving and maintaining internal control over information systems while ensuring the Company's compliance with applicable requirements.
Waste Connections' PCSP applies to the entire Waste Connections organization, including all personnel, consultants and guests who have access to Waste Connections' IT resources. Every employee shares the responsibility for securing information and resources within their respective departments.
Information security is maintained through a set of controls that involve policies, processes, procedures, organizational structures, and software and hardware functions. These controls must be established, implemented, monitored, reviewed, and improved as necessary to meet the specific security and business objectives of the Company.
