Protection of the Customer's IP while Neev is engaged in a development relationship with them is one of the cornerstones of our operating ethos. Neev's Management team considers IP protection an implicit and integral part of the offering that we place/propose to the customers.

To ensure the comprehensive protection of our customers IP we follow these best practices 

1. Non Disclosure Agreement Neev signs an NDA with the prospective client at the initial stages of talks with the client so as to maintain full confidentiality of the information being exchanged. As part of its HR policies Neev also assures that its employees are legally bonded to protect our customers IP.

2. IP protection clauses in the Work Contract / Master Services Agreement Neev ensures that the Contract that is signed upon award of work to us contains the IP protection clauses as specified by the customer and also the governing law and the jurisdiction of the same being the one specified by the customer

3. Network Security Neev ensures that the IP of the client ( code, documents, other artefacts) are secure and not susceptible to electronic theft. Our System Administrators ensure regular monitoring and detection of any such attempts. Only personnel authorized to access this information are able to view / work with the artefacts.

4.Code Security Source code and other artefacts are protected through our version control systems access to which is only through a secure HTTPS link and individual passwords. The version control system is configured to grant access to only relevant areas of the source tree even for personnel in the same project / team.

 The back up policies ensure that the artefacts are recoverable in the face of man made / natural disasters. On the behest of the  client we also erase the code from our systems once our engagement is over. The client is handed over all the relevant artefacts in a suitable media and in a predecided and documented format.

5. Physical Security Round the clock security is provided by a certified independent agency to ensure safety of the premises. Developers belonging to different teams are logistically segregated from each other for all aspects.
