Preventing Unauthorized Product Access
Outsourced processing: We host our Service with outsourced cloud infrastructure providers. Additionally, we maintain contractual relationships with vendors in order to provide the Service in accordance with our DPA. We rely on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programs in order to protect data processed or stored by these vendors.
Physical and environmental security: We host our product infrastructure with multi-tenant, outsourced infrastructure providers. The physical and environmental security controls are audited for SOC 2 Type II, among other certifications.
Authentication: We implement a uniform password policy for our customer products. Customers who interact with the products via the user interface must authenticate before accessing non-public customer data.
Authorization: Customer Data is stored in storage systems accessible to Customers via only application user interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. The authorization model in our product is designed to ensure that only the appropriately assigned individuals can access relevant features, views, and customization options. Authorization to data sets is performed through validating the user’s permissions against the attributes associated with each data set.
Application Programming Interface (API) access: Public product APIs may be accessed using an API key.
Preventing Unauthorized Product Use
Industry standards: We implement industry-standard access controls and detection capabilities for the internal networks that support its products.
Access controls: Network access control mechanisms are designed to prevent network traffic using unauthorized protocols from reaching the product infrastructure. The technical measures implemented differ between infrastructure providers and include Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) implementations, security group assignment, and traditional firewall rules.
Penetration testing: We perform an annual penetration test. The intent of the penetration tests is to identify and resolve foreseeable attack vectors and potential abuse scenarios.
Limitations of Privilege & Authorization Requirements
Product access: A subset of our employees have access to the product and to Customer Data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective customer support, troubleshoot potential problems, detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. Employee roles are reviewed at least once every twelve months.
Employee Security: All CompanyCam, Inc. employees undergo reference checks prior to being extended an employment offer, in accordance with and as permitted by the applicable laws and sign Confidentiality Agreements. All CompanyCam, Inc. employees are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with company guidelines, non-disclosure requirements, and ethical standards and sign off on our internal policies annually.
Transmission Control
In-transit: We make HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS) available on every one of our Service login interfaces. Our HTTPS implementation uses industry-standard algorithms and certificates.
At-rest: We store user passwords following policies that follow industry standard practices for security. We have implemented technologies to ensure that stored data is encrypted at rest.
Input Control
Detection: We designed our infrastructure to log extensive information about the system behavior, traffic received, system authentication, and other application requests. Internal systems aggregated log data and alert appropriate employees of malicious, unintended, or anomalous activities. Our personnel are responsive to known incidents.
Response and tracking: We maintain a record of known security incidents that includes description, dates and times of relevant activities, and incident disposition. Suspected and confirmed security incidents are investigated by security, operations, or support personnel; and appropriate resolution steps are identified and documented. For any confirmed incidents, we will take appropriate steps to minimize product and Customer damage or unauthorized disclosure. Notification to You will be in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and DPA.
Availability Control
Infrastructure availability: Our infrastructure providers use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure industry-standard uptime as set forth in the Agreement. The providers maintain a minimum of N+1 redundancy to power, network, and HVAC services.
Backup and recovery: Backup and replication strategies are designed to ensure redundancy and fail-over protections during a significant processing failure. Customer Data is backed up to multiple durable data stores and replicated across multiple availability zones. Recovery strategies are tested at least annually.
