Device security

  • Enable full-disk encryption on all devices used for company work
  • Keep operating systems and software up to date — do not defer updates beyond 7 days
  • Do not connect company devices to unknown or public Wi-Fi without using the company VPN
  • Report lost or stolen devices to IT immediately: it@blevinsholdings.com

Access control

Access to systems and data is granted on a least-privilege basis — you receive only the access needed for your role. Access is reviewed quarterly and revoked promptly upon role changes or departure. Requesting additional access:
# Submit via the IT helpdesk portal
# Include: system name, access level needed, business justification, manager approval
