access to data, unlawful disclosure, modification or destruction of data. Accordingly,

Codeway takes the following technical and administrative measures regarding the personal

data it processes:

Anti-virus application. On all computers and servers in Codeway's information technology

infrastructure, a periodically updated anti-virus application is installed.

Firewall. The data center and disaster recovery centers hosting Codeway servers are

protected by periodically updated software-loaded firewalls; the relevant next generation

firewalls control the internet connections of all staff and provide protection against viruses

and similar threats during this control.

VPN. Suppliers can access Codeway servers or systems through SSL-VPN defined on

Firewalls. A separate SSL-VPN identification has been made for each supplier; with the

identification made, the supplier only provides access to the systems that it should use or is

authorized to use.

User identifications. Codeway employees' authorization to Codeway systems is limited only

to the extent necessary by job descriptions; in case of any change of authority or duty,

systemic authorizations are also updated.

Information security threat and event management. Events that occur on Codeway

servers and firewalls, are transferred to the “Information Security Threat and Event

Management” system. This system alerts the responsible staff when a security threat occurs

and allows them to respond immediately to the threat.

Encryption. Sensitive data is stored with cryptographic methods and if required, transferred

through environments encrypted with cryptographic methods and cryptographic keys are

stored in secure and various environments.

Logging. All transaction records regarding sensitive data are securely logged.

Two-factor authentication. Remote access to sensitive data is allowed through at least

two-factor authentication.

Penetration test. Periodically, penetration tests are performed on servers in the Codeway

system. The security gaps created as a result of this test are closed and a verification test is

performed to show that the relevant security gaps have been closed. Besides, Information

Security Threat and Event Management System automatically performs penetration tests.

Test results are recorded.

Information Security Management System (ISMS). At the ISMS meetings made within

Codeway, the topics contained in the control forum are audited monthly by the director of

information technology and the director of financial operations.

Training. In order to increase the awareness of Codeway employees against various

information security violations and to minimize the impact of the human factor in information

violation incidents, trainings are provided to employees at regular intervals.

Physical data security. It ensures that personal data on papers is necessarily stored in

lockers and accessed only by authorized persons. Adequate security measures (for

situations such as electric leakage, fire, deluge, thievery etc.) are taken based on the nature

of the environment where sensitive data is stored.

Backup. Codeway periodically backs up the data it stores. As a backup mechanism, it uses

the backup facilities provided by the cloud infrastructure providers, as well as the backup

solutions it develops when deemed necessary, provided that it is in compliance with relevant

legislation and provisions of this Policy.

Non-disclosure agreement. Non-disclosure agreements are concluded with employees

taking part in sensitive personal data processing.

Transfer of sensitive personal data. If transfer of sensitive personal data is required

through email; such transfer is done through (i) encrypted corporate email or (ii) Registered

E-mail.
