Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
The service is delivered as a cloud-based software service and is designed to be available during normal operating conditions. Availability is dependent on the underlying cloud hosting platform and internet connectivity. No specific uptime percentage is guaranteed as part of the standard service offering.

The contract price includes access to the service on an “as provided” basis. The service does not include service credits or automatic refunds linked to availability levels. Where availability issues occur, they are managed through the support process in line with incident management procedures.

Any enhanced availability commitments, service credits, or bespoke service level agreements would need to be agreed separately and are not included as part of the standard software subscription.
Approach to resilience
The service is designed using a cloud-based architecture that leverages the resilience features of the underlying hosting platform. The hosting environment provides built-in redundancy across infrastructure components, including compute, storage, and networking, to reduce the impact of component failure. Monitoring and automated recovery mechanisms are used to maintain service continuity.

The service benefits from resilient datacentre operations, including controlled physical access, environmental protections, and backup power and connectivity, as provided by the cloud hosting provider. Data protection measures such as replication and backup are used to support recovery in the event of service disruption.

Detailed information about the hosting platform’s resilience and datacentre design can be provided to buyers on request, subject to appropriate security and commercial considerations.
Outage reporting
Service availability issues are communicated through the support process and relevant service communications. Where an outage is identified, users can raise incidents through email or the online ticketing system and receive updates on status and resolution progress.

The service does not provide a dedicated public status dashboard or customer-accessible outage reporting API. Where outages relate to the underlying cloud hosting platform, information may also be made available through the hosting provider’s published service health communications. Users may receive email notifications for significant service incidents where appropriate.

Identity and authentication

Security governance standards
ISO/IEC 27001
Information security policies and processes
OfficeLabs operates a formal information security management framework aligned with ISO/IEC 27001. Documented policies and procedures cover areas including access control, data protection, incident management, risk assessment, supplier management, and business continuity. Policies are reviewed regularly to ensure continued relevance and effectiveness.

Overall responsibility for information security sits with a named board-level role, supported by operational security leads who oversee day-to-day implementation. Security risks are identified, assessed, and managed through a structured risk management process, with findings escalated where required.

Compliance with security policies is supported through defined processes, role-based responsibilities, staff awareness activities, and internal review mechanisms. Security incidents and weaknesses are reported through established channels and managed in line with documented incident response procedures.

Third-party services used in the delivery of the service are assessed as part of supplier and risk management processes to ensure appropriate security controls are in place. The effectiveness of information security controls is monitored and reviewed as part of ongoing governance activities.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Configuration items relating to the service are identified and managed through documented configuration and change management processes. Changes are requested, assessed, approved, and implemented in a controlled manner, with records maintained to track components throughout their lifecycle. Proposed changes are reviewed for potential security, availability, and operational impact before implementation. Where changes may affect security controls, additional risk assessment and mitigation steps are applied. Changes are tested where appropriate and implemented in line with defined procedures to reduce the risk of unintended impact.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Potential threats are identified through a combination of vendor security advisories, cloud provider notifications, vulnerability disclosures, and internal review. Reported vulnerabilities are assessed based on risk, impact, and exploitability. Remediation actions are prioritised accordingly. Security patches and updates are applied in a controlled manner and within reasonable timescales based on severity and operational impact. Where vulnerabilities relate to third-party components or hosting platforms, remediation is coordinated with the relevant suppliers. Vulnerability status and remediation actions are tracked through established operational security processes.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Protective monitoring activities are used to identify potential security events and compromises through review of service logs, alerts, and notifications from underlying platforms and suppliers. Potential incidents are assessed to determine impact and severity. Where a compromise is suspected, predefined incident response procedures are followed to contain, investigate, and remediate the issue. Incidents are responded to promptly and prioritised based on risk and potential impact, with escalation applied where necessary in line with documented security and incident management processes.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
The organisation operates documented incident management processes covering identification, assessment, response, and resolution of security and service incidents. Pre-defined procedures are in place for common incident types to support consistent handling and escalation. Users can report incidents through email or the online ticketing system. Incidents are logged, prioritised based on impact and urgency, and managed through to resolution. Where appropriate, users are provided with updates and post-incident information outlining the nature of the incident, actions taken, and any relevant follow-up.

What the ISO/IEC 27001 doesn’t cover
The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification applies to the OfficeLabs Information Security Management System (ISMS) as defined in the documented scope and Statement of Applicability.

The certification does not cover customer-owned systems, infrastructure, networks, or devices that are not operated or managed by OfficeLabs, including client environments accessed for consultancy or delivery purposes. It also does not extend to third-party platforms or services used by OfficeLabs, except where these are governed through supplier due diligence, contractual controls, and ongoing risk management within the ISMS.

End-user locations, home networks, and personal equipment are not directly certified, beyond the organisational policies and controls applied to remote working. Activities, information assets, or processing operations that fall outside the formally defined ISMS scope are also excluded.

As with all management system certifications, the ISO/IEC 27001 certification is based on limited audit sampling and does not guarantee the absence of all non-conformances.

All information assets, systems, and services within the defined scope are managed in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001:2022, with risks outside the scope addressed through governance, supplier management, contractual obligations, and risk assessment processes.
