Section HeadingControl HeadingOriginal IDQuestion TextAnswerNotes/Comment
Application & Interface SecurityApplication SecurityAIS-01.2Do you use an automated source code analysis tool to detect security defects in code prior to production?YesWe perform automated source code analysis via continuous integration and automated tests running on CircleCI. These tests cover all components (i.e. backend/frontend) and ensure compatibility and security of the modifications. We also plan to integrate automated vulnerability checkers (e.g. Depfu) in order to automate dependency checks and updates during our next security review.
AIS-01.5(SaaS only) Do you review your applications for security vulnerabilities and address any issues prior to deployment to production?YesWe perform human reviews (i.e. pull requests, peer reviews) along with automated testing.
Customer Access RequirementsAIS-02.1Are all identified security, contractual, and regulatory requirements for customer access contractually addressed and remediated prior to granting customers access to data, assets, and information systems?YesWe provide full details of this in the customers contracts as well as in the privacy policy and terms of use which are available on our website.
Data IntegrityAIS-03.1Do your data management policies and procedures require audits to verify data input and output integrity routines?YesData integrity is ensured via automated validation checks, end-to-end tests and human reviews.
Audit Assurance & ComplianceIndependent AuditsAAC-02.1Do you allow tenants to view your SOC2/ISO 27001 or similar third-party audit or certification reports?Not ApplicableAs AWS tenants, we do have access to all relevant certifications provided by AWS.
