All the data save in main server or HUB and employees can easily access it. This type of computing system provides an easy access and efficient flow of data, which increase the functionality of organization.

Organization transaction processing system:

Transaction Processing System:
12

A Transaction Processing System (TPS) is a type of information system. TPSs collect, store, modify, and retrieve thetransa ctions of an organization. A transaction is an event that generates or modifies at a is eventually stored in an information system. From a technical perspective, a Transaction Processing System (or Transaction Processing Monitor) monitors transaction programs, a special kind of programs. The essence of a transaction program is that it manages data that must be left in a consistent state.

TPS in Standard chartered bank:

Effective transaction processing system is working in Standard chartered bank that offer enterprise the means to rapidly process transactions to ensure the smooth flow of data and the progression of processes throughout the enterprise.

Payroll TPS:
In Standard Chartered payroll TPS is designed to get information and record of the employ and then to calculate his/her annual earning. It get information about the employee from the employees department and from general ledger and send it to payroll TPS from where it links that information with the previous record and prepare a report which is forwarded to management. Management takes notice the LN record of the employees efficiency to work and may declare added bonus or other incentive. This report is checked and approved by the branch manager after which check is issued to the employee. And when that check is cashed, the record is updated in the general ledger as well as the master payroll (HUB).

Customer Identification:
In Standard Chartered bank there is their own information management named software Virses is working which is connected to NADRA. So if any new client wants to open an account in the bank the system automatically send a request to NADRA to check and verify the customer ID number. Which helps the management to identify whether he/she is using his original ID card or not.

Employees Record:
13

All employees are supposed to login when they enter the bank and logout on leaving, by tracing their thumb impressions on biometric device. This device is connected with the HUB which continuously makes record of their hours spent in the bank. Moreover, the bank has their own setup named LN which makes records of all the transactions made by an employee. This help management to monitor the working efficiency of an employee.

Real time Banking:

In many circumstances the primary factor is speed. For example, when a customer withdraws a sum of money from his or her account the transactions are processed and the account balance updated as soon as possible, allowing both the bank and customer to keep track of funds. The new transaction is send to LN. The LN enters the HUB where the specified file is accessed. The updates are made entered there and finally the update is done.

Online Complains:
Standard Chartered bank allows the customer the option of online complains. The customer submits the online complain which is then processed by Customer Service TPS which is linked by management and after the problem identification it is send to the concerned department.

Advices:
As all of the record of the customers are stored in main server (HUB) of Standard Chartered bank, so incase if someone account balance is getting near to zero the system automatically alert the management about that. Then manager take manual action and send him/her the advice (a letter, mail or phone call) to check the account balance.

Management information system:

MIS reports and summarizes the organizations basic operations and these reports come from the basic transition processing systems. In case of our organization the TPSs of ATM Cards, Payroll and Customer identification etc. provide the basic information about the organizations activities. These activities are then summarized in the form of reports for the manager so that they can check whether the firm is working properly or not. If there are some flaws then they take control measures to fix those flaws.

Classification and Specific Problem:

Underpinning a Risk-Driven Strategy
"The stakes are very high indeed. With our many large and complex interconnections to the outside world, it's vital to carry out effective patch management. Our aim is to achieve the right level of security through implementing an appropriate risk-based strategy. This cannot be achieved without a clear and accurate understanding of what needs patching and ensuring that it remains reliably

patched. We use QualysGuard as a dynamic tool to underpin this process." says John Meakin, Group Head of Information Security, Standard Chartered Bank. "Our aim is to achieve the right level of security on our global networks. This means a clear and accurate understanding of what needs patching and ensuring that it remains reliably patched. We rely upon QualysGuard to underpin this process." "Being able to report on remediation and response plans has also helped us meet strict financial compliance requirements. Qualys Guard reports give me and my security team an instant overview of the overall level of health of security in my organization." [By John Meakin ]

Standard Charterers Need for Vulnerability Management

Security monitoring in an environment like Standard Charterers requires the capability to cover diverse IT platforms - including both Windows and Linux - and many applications and services. Its goal was to consolidate these ad-hoc efforts into one cohesive, global process with clear visibility, follow through and accountability. "It was the only solution which met our demands without compromise, giving us a reliable, centralized method for protecting our critical assets worldwide," says Meakin. "Our experience of rolling out QualysGuard has been remarkably painless. Working with our integration team in both London and Singapore, the service has been consistently high."

The role of Vulnerability Management at Standard Chartered

By introducing vulnerability management, Standard Chartered gained a clear picture of the exposure with common standards worldwide. The company has been able to quickly prioritize remediation; get security and operating teams to work together smoothly and effectively and empowered outsourcing vendors to meet specific security service level agreements. Many major viruses have the ability to recur and creep insidiously back into the network causing considerable problems; another reason why on-going scanning is important. "Regulatory pressures and increased exposure are driving more complex requirements for managing security risks. With this integration we gain the ability to view and act upon security risk as it pertains to our organizations assets, said John Meakin. In addition, being able to report on remediation and response plans has helped us meet strict financial compliance requirements."

Reports Help to Improve Risk Management and to Address Regulatory Requirements

"Regulatory pressures and increased exposure are driving more complex requirements for managing security risk. Our vulnerability management strategy gains us the ability to view and act upon security risk as it pertains to our organizations assets" said John Meakin. "The reports also enable me to justify the investments we need and further define our security strategy. Today, we really can deploy our security manpower much more effectively in both preparing and responding to security incidents." concludes Meakin
