- Prevents any chance of an accidental code merge with Credential Checking.
- Trains on secure code development (OWASP Top 10 Secure Coding Practices, etc.).
- Block the latest threats with our Web Application Firewall (WAF).
- Mitigate attacks with robust Content Security Policy headers.
- Peer review code changes before being merged to a protected main.
- Run-time monitoring and detection for application exploits.

## Infrastructure and Data

- DDoS mitigation at both the application layer (CDN provider) and the network layer (cloud service provider).
- Data is encrypted at rest and in transit using known strong protocols and ciphers.
- Access to data is reviewed and authorized.
- Authentication uses 2FA with phishing-resistant hardware.
- Hosted on reputable cloud services provider, Amazon Web Services (AWS).
- Peer reviews of infrastructure changes, Infrastructure as Code vulnerability security scans, Compliance as Code compliance scans, and quick recovery for failover with Infrastructure as Code.
- Anomaly detection supported by GuardDuty as well as third-party security services from trusted vendors.
- Cloud Security Posture Management deployed and informs on vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.
- Vulnerability management process to mitigate vulnerabilities in a timely manner.
- DNSSEC to help prevent domain spoofing.
- Deployed security tooling to detect and protect.

## Endpoint

- Devices centrally managed with MDM with known hardened security configurations, such as firewalls, patching, and encryption.
- Endpoints protected with endpoint detection and response capabilities to monitor for malicious activity and associated chain of events.
- Filter malicious requests that could harm employees (or our company) with Advanced DNS Filtering on endpoints and endpoint network protections.

## Security, automated

An automation-led approach gives us 24/7 confidence in our security and compliance posture, while fostering a culture of trust.

## Continuous Compliance

We monitor 100+ security controls and work with auditors and security experts to ensure automated tests are accurate.

## Detection & Response

We use best-in-class services and tools to provide 24/7 automated detection and response capabilities.

## DevSecOps Forward

Security checks are baked into our software development lifecycle and secure baselines are automatically enforced.

## Zero Trust

We're a remote-first, cloud-native company, and have designed our networks and access controls with Zero Trust principles.

## Phishing Resistance MFA

We use the Web Authentication API (WebAuthn) multi-factor standard to protect authentication to sensitive systems.

## Red Team Testing

We conduct red team testing both internally and with third parties to best identify security gaps.
