Application Security for FlowMo Hosted Environment
If Customer opts either to include FlowMo Cloud-based infrastructure in the Services or to use a Multi-Cloud Provider, the Services will run on the infrastructure chosen by Customer. In this case, without prejudice to Customer's obligations under Section 7.3 (Customer's Security Responsibilities and Assessment) and in addition to FlowMo's obligations relating to Subprocessors as described in Section 11 (Subprocessors) or 12 (Multi-Cloud Provider), as applicable, FlowMo will implement and maintain the Security Measures described below:
-
Product Security.
- Code Quality. FlowMo employs an SDLC code review process, automated testing, and regular penetration testing designed to maintain the security of the code used to provide the Services.
- Access. The Services support SAML-based single sign-on (SSO) and two-factor authentication (2FA) for users. The Services support authentication of users and a flexible governance model to allow administrators to associate users with Services groups, roles, and permissions.
-
Cloud Security.
- Logical separation of data. The Services store configuration information, event data, and cached query results in each Instance. The Services are architected to logically separate this information in order to isolate each Instance.
- Data security architecture. FlowMo follows at least industry standard practices for security architecture. Proxy servers help secure access to the Services by providing a single point to filter attacks through IP denylisting and connection rate limiting.
- Redundancy. FlowMo employs a Cloud-based distributed backup framework for each Instance.
- Access. Access to the Services or back-end infrastructure by FlowMo personnel requires multiple levels of authentication and all access is uniquely identified, logged, and monitored. Access to the Services by FlowMo personnel to provide technical support requested by Customer or End Users is controlled by Customer's administrators.
- Vulnerability and Threat Scanning. FlowMo regularly scans the Services including back-end infrastructure for known security vulnerabilities. Logs and network activity are reviewed for threats and potential risks, anomalous activity, and alerts. Known vulnerabilities are reviewed and mitigated based on criticality.
- Encryption Technologies. FlowMo uses the following forms of encryption: (a) AES-256 bit encryption for database connection configurations and cached query data; (b) dedicated password-based key derivation function (bcrypt) with hashing and salting for native usernames and passwords; and (c) TLS 1.2 for data in transit from the user's browser to the Services. The Services support database connection configurations via encrypted TLS 1.2 or SSH.
-
Subprocessor Security
Regardless of whether Customer opts to include FlowMo Cloud-based infrastructure in the Services or to use a Multi-Cloud Provider, FlowMo conducts an audit of the security and privacy practices of all Subprocessors before they are onboarded to ensure they provide a level of security and privacy appropriate to their access to data and the scope of the services they are engaged to provide. Once FlowMo has assessed the risks presented by the Subprocessor, then subject to the requirements described in Section 11.3 (Requirements for Subprocessor Engagement) of these Terms, the Subprocessor is required to enter into appropriate security, confidentiality and privacy contract terms.
-
FlowMo Cloud-Based Infrastructure
If Customer chooses to include FlowMo Cloud-based infrastructure in the Services , FlowMo will implement and maintain the additional Security Measures described below.
- Data Center and Network Security
- Data Centers.
- Infrastructure. FlowMo maintains geographically distributed data centers. FlowMo stores all production data in physically secure data centers.
- Redundancy. Infrastructure systems have been designed to eliminate single points of failure and minimize the impact of anticipated environmental risks. Dual circuits, switches, networks or other necessary devices help provide this redundancy. The Services are designed to allow FlowMo to perform certain types of preventative and corrective maintenance without interruption. All environmental equipment and facilities have documented preventative maintenance procedures that detail the process for and frequency of performance in accordance with the manufacturer's or internal specifications. Preventative and corrective maintenance of the data center equipment is scheduled through a standard change process according to documented procedures.
- Power. The data center electrical power systems are designed to be redundant and maintainable without impact to continuous operations, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In most cases, a primary as well as an alternate power source, each with equal capacity, is provided for critical infrastructure components in the data center. Backup power is provided by various mechanisms such as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) batteries, which supply consistently reliable power protection during utility brownouts, blackouts, over voltage, under voltage, and out-of-tolerance frequency conditions. If utility power is interrupted, backup power is designed to provide transitory power to the data center, at full capacity, for up to 10 minutes until the diesel generator systems take over. The diesel generators are capable of automatically starting up within seconds to provide enough emergency electrical power to run the data center at full capacity typically for a period of days.
- Server Operating Systems. FlowMo servers use a Linux based implementation customized for the application environment. Data is stored using proprietary algorithms to augment data security and redundancy. FlowMo employs a code review process to increase the security of the code used to provide the Services and enhance the security products in production environments.
- Business Continuity. FlowMo has designed and regularly plans and tests its business continuity planning/disaster recovery programs.
- Networks and Transmission.
- Data Transmission. Data centers are typically connected via high-speed private links to provide secure and fast data transfer between data centers. This is designed to prevent data from being read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during electronic transfer or transport or while being recorded onto data storage media. FlowMo transfers data via Internet standard protocols.
- External Attack Surface. FlowMo employs multiple layers of network devices and intrusion detection to protect its external attack surface. FlowMo considers potential attack vectors and incorporates appropriate purpose built technologies into external facing systems.
- Intrusion Detection. Intrusion detection is intended to provide insight into ongoing attack activities and provide adequate information to respond to incidents. FlowMo's intrusion detection involves:
- tightly controlling the size and make-up of FlowMo's attack surface through preventative measures;
- employing intelligent detection controls at data entry points; and
- employing technologies that automatically remedy certain dangerous situations.
- Incident Response. FlowMo monitors a variety of communication channels for security incidents, and FlowMo's security personnel will react promptly to known incidents.
- Encryption Technologies. FlowMo makes HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS connection) available. FlowMo servers support ephemeral elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key exchange signed with RSA and ECDSA. These perfect forward secrecy (PFS) methods help protect traffic and minimize the impact of a compromised key, or a cryptographic breakthrough.
- Access and Site Controls
- Site Controls.
- On-site Data Center Security Operation. FlowMo's data centers maintain an on-site security operation responsible for all physical data center security functions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The on-site security operation personnel monitor closed circuit TV (CCTV) cameras and all alarm systems. On-site security operation personnel perform internal and external patrols of the data center regularly.
- Data Center Access Procedures. FlowMo maintains formal access procedures for allowing physical access to the data centers. The data centers are housed in facilities that require electronic card key access, with alarms that are linked to the on-site security operation. All entrants to the data center are required to identify themselves as well as show proof of identity to on-site security operations. Only authorized employees, contractors and visitors are allowed entry to the data centers. Only authorized employees and contractors are permitted to request electronic card key access to these facilities. Data center electronic card key access requests must be made through e-mail, and require the approval of the requestor's manager and the data center director. All other entrants requiring temporary data center access must: (i) obtain approval in advance from the data center managers for the specific data center and internal areas they wish to visit; (ii) sign in at on-site security operations; and (iii) reference an approved data center access record identifying the individual as approved.
- On-site Data Center Security Devices. FlowMo's data centers employ a dual authentication access control system that is linked to a system alarm. The access control system monitors and records each individual's electronic card key and when they access perimeter doors, shipping and receiving, and other critical areas. Unauthorized activity and failed access attempts are logged by the access control system and investigated, as appropriate. Authorized access throughout the business operations and data centers is restricted based on zones and the individual's job responsibilities. The fire doors at the data centers are alarmed. CCTV cameras are in operation both inside and outside the data centers. The positioning of the cameras has been designed to cover strategic areas including, among others, the perimeter, doors to the data center building, and shipping/receiving. On-site security operations personnel manage the CCTV monitoring, recording and control equipment. Secure cables throughout the data centers connect the CCTV equipment. Cameras record on site via digital video recorders 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The surveillance records are retained for up to 30 days based on activity.
- Access Control.
- Infrastructure Security Personnel. FlowMo has, and maintains, a security policy for its personnel, and requires security training as part of the training package for its personnel. FlowMo's infrastructure security personnel are responsible for the ongoing monitoring of FlowMo's security infrastructure, the review of the Services, and responding to security incidents.
- Access Control and Privilege Management. Customer's administrators and Customer End Users must authenticate themselves via a central authentication system or via a single sign on system in order to use the Services.
- Internal Data Access Processes and Policies – Access Policy. FlowMo's internal data access processes and policies are designed to prevent unauthorized persons and/or systems from gaining access to systems used to process personal data. FlowMo designs its systems to (i) only allow authorized persons to access data they are authorized to access; and (ii) ensure that personal data cannot be read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during processing, use and after recording. The systems are designed to detect any inappropriate access. FlowMo employs a centralized access management system to control personnel access to production servers, and only provides access to a limited number of authorized personnel.FlowMo's authentication and authorization systems utilize SSH certificates and security keys, and are designed to provide FlowMo with secure and flexible access mechanisms. These mechanisms are designed to grant only approved access rights to site hosts, logs, data and configuration information. FlowMo requires the use of unique user IDs, strong passwords, two factor authentication and carefully monitored access lists to minimize the potential for unauthorized account use. The granting or modification of access rights is based on: the authorized personnel's job responsibilities; job duty requirements necessary to perform authorized tasks; and a need to know basis. The granting or modification of access rights must also be in accordance with FlowMo's internal data access policies and training. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. Access to systems is logged to create an audit trail for accountability. Where passwords are employed for authentication (e.g., login to workstations), password policies that follow at least industry standard practices are implemented. These standards include restrictions on password reuse and sufficient password strength. For access to extremely sensitive information (e.g., credit card data), FlowMo uses hardware tokens.
- Data
- Data Storage, Isolation and Logging. FlowMo stores data in a multi-tenant environment on FlowMo-owned servers. Subject to any Instructions to the contrary (e.g., in the form of a cloud infrastructure location selection), FlowMo replicates Customer Data between multiple geographically dispersed data centers. FlowMo also logically isolates the Customer Data. Customer will be given control over specific data sharing policies. Those policies, in accordance with the functionality of the Services, will enable Customer to determine the product sharing settings applicable to Customer End Users for specific purposes. Customer may choose to use logging functionality that FlowMo makes available via the Services.
- Decommissioned Disks and Disk Erase Policy. Disks containing data may experience performance issues, errors or hardware failure that lead them to be decommissioned ("Decommissioned Disk"). Every Decommissioned Disk is subject to a series of data destruction processes (the "Disk Erase Policy") before leaving FlowMo's premises either for reuse or destruction. Decommissioned Disks are erased in a multi-step process and verified complete by at least two independent validators. The erase results are logged by the Decommissioned Disk's serial number for tracking. Finally, the erased Decommissioned Disk is released to inventory for reuse and redeployment. If, due to hardware failure, the Decommissioned Disk cannot be erased, it is securely stored until it can be destroyed. Each facility is audited regularly to monitor compliance with the Disk Erase Policy.
- Personnel Security
FlowMo personnel are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company's guidelines regarding confidentiality, business ethics, appropriate usage, and professional standards. FlowMo conducts reasonably appropriate background checks to the extent legally permissible and in accordance with applicable local labor law and statutory regulations.
Personnel are required to execute a confidentiality agreement and must acknowledge receipt of, and compliance with, FlowMo's confidentiality and privacy policies. Personnel are provided with security training. Personnel handling Customer Data are required to complete additional requirements appropriate to their role (e.g., certifications). FlowMo's personnel will not process Customer Data without authorization.
