ANNEX 2
SECURITY MEASURES
We currently observe the Security Measures described in this Annex 2. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings as set forth in the Agreement.
1. ACCESS CONTROL
a. 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. We do not own or maintain hardware located at the outsourced infrastructure providers’ data centers. Production servers and client-facing applications are logically and physically secured from our internal corporate information systems.
Authentication. We offer a range of authentication methods for our customer products, including a uniform password policy, Single Sign-On (SSO), and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). Customers who interact with the products via the user interface must authenticate before accessing non-public customer data.
Authorization. Customer Data is stored in multi-tenant storage systems accessible to Customers via only application user interfaces and application programming interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. The authorization model in each of our products 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.
b. Preventing Unauthorized Product Use.
We implement industry standard access controls and detection capabilities for the internal infrastructure that support its products.
Access controls. We follow all industry-recommended standards in configuring our cloud infrastructure. This includes ensuring no direct access from the internet and segregating our services and server instances to enhance security.
Intrusion detection and prevention. We maintain a centralized log infrastructure where all activities are indexed and logged. On top of this infrastructure, we employ detection tools that analyze logs for suspicious behavior, enhancing our security measures and response capabilities.
Static code analysis. Code stored in our source code repositories is checked for best practices and identifiable software flaws using automated tooling.
Security testing. We have a dedicated security team responsible for conducting security testing and reviews of both the Harvest web application and internal corporate network tooling. The goal of these tests is to identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities, reducing the risk and business impact to the systems in scope.
c. Limitations of Privilege & Authorization Requirements.
Product access. A subset of our employees have access to the products and to customer data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective customer support, product development and research, to troubleshoot potential problems, to detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. Access is enabled through “just in time” (JITA) requests for access; all such requests are logged. Employees are granted access by role.
Background checks. Where permitted by applicable law, our employees undergo a third-party background or reference checks. In the United States, employment offers are contingent upon the results of a third-party background check. All our employees are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with company guidelines, non-disclosure requirements, and ethical standards.
d. Transmission Control.
In-transit. We require HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS) on all 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.
e. 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 aggregate log data and alert appropriate employees of malicious, unintended, or anomalous activities. Our personnel, including security, operations, and support 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.
f. Availability Control
Infrastructure availability. The infrastructure providers use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure a reasonable uptime. The providers maintain a minimum of N+1 redundancy to power, network, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) services.
Fault tolerance. 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.
Online replicas and backups. Where feasible, production databases are designed to replicate data between no less than 1 primary and 1 secondary database. All databases are backed up and maintained using at least industry standard methods.
Recovery. We maintain and regularly test our internal failover strategy, to help ensure availability of information following interruption to, or failure of, critical business processes.
Our products are designed to ensure redundancy and seamless failover. The server instances that support the products are also architected with a goal to prevent single points of failure. This design assists our operations in maintaining and updating the product applications and backend while limiting downtime.
