Security and Compliance

SOC2 (Service Organization Control 2) compliance is an internationally recognized security standard that helps organizations, including cloud service providers, protect customer data and demonstrate compliance with applicable regulations. The standard was developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and is based on the AICPA's Trust Services Criteria. SOC2 compliance requires organizations to meet specific security and privacy requirements related to data storage, processing, and transmission. Compliance involves the implementation of appropriate technical, physical, and administrative controls that are monitored on an ongoing basis.

ISO/IEC 27001 (International Organization for Standardization / International Electrotechnical Commission) is an international standard that outlines the requirements for an information security management system (ISMS).

ISO/IEC 27001 is a widely recognized standard for information security management and is accepted by many organizations around the world.

The NIS 2 Directive, an EU-wide legislation aimed at bolstering network and information system security across member states, establishes a framework for achieving higher levels of security.

FedRamp (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program) is a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. It is designed to help agencies assess and authorize cloud products and services more efficiently and cost-effectively.

The standards cover areas such as authentication, authorization, encryption, audit, and other security-related topics.

508 VPATs (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) are documents that provide detailed information on how accessible a product or service is to people with disabilities. The documents are developed in accordance with Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which requires federal agencies to ensure that their electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities. VPATs are often used by government agencies when procuring software, hardware, and other technology products and services.

The Australian Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) assessment reviews ICT systems against the Australian Government’s strict cyber security standards.

The assessment process uses the security guidance detailed in Australian Attorney-General’s Department’s (AGD) Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF), the Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM), produced by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), and the Digital Transformation Agency’s (DTA) Secure Cloud Strategy and other cyber security guidance. The assessment covers the modular components of Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and complementary SaaS services.

The assessment and corresponding report provide an overview of the effectiveness of the implementation of security controls, necessary for authorizing systems to hold, process and communicate Australian government information classified up to and including PROTECTED.
