S 5.29 Periodic checks of destination addresses and logs

Initiation responsibility: IT Security Officer

Implementation responsibility: Person in Charge of the Fax System

With programmable speed dial keys or destination address storage, it should be checked regularly whether the desired fax number corresponds to the fax number programmed and whether it is still required. This prevents a fax number entered by an unauthorised person being used in place of the proper number. Furthermore, modifications of the desired destination numbers which may have been overlooked are discovered early on.

Review questions:

• Are programmed speed dial keys or destination address storages checked regularly for up-to-dateness and correctness?
