A strong differentiator for UiPath is our Learning Culture. It is critical for
UiPath to make significant global investments in our people, partners,
customers, industry and academia. UiPath has a free E-Learning
platform (academy.uipath.com), that speeds up the learning and
proficiency curve. Training for development, management and
reporting consists of three levels: starting with the Foundation course,
followed by the Orchestrator and then the Advanced courses. These
courses are available online, free of charge and are self-led through
the UiPath Academy. Advanced courses can also be delivered as
classroom training through our UiPath Official Training Partners
(https://www.uipath.com/partners/official-training-partners) or in some
cases, directly provided by UiPath. UiPath has 18 training partners,
covering all regions. Role-based training is available and the training
can be customized for the customer. We also provide online resources
including documentation, videos, knowledge base, and FAQs, available
here: https://www.uipath.com/developers/guides-and-resources. - Service documentation

can export all of your data for you upon request. Should you close your
account with UiPath Cloud Platform, or otherwise request data
deletion, we delete that data from our systems after the requisite 30-
day soft-delete period. We recommend our customers assess if their
use of our Cloud Platform is in line with their privacy obligations. For
more information about UiPath’s privacy statement, how UiPath
processes your data when using online services, and GDPR
commitments, please visit our Privacy Policy:

- Service interface
- Yes
- User support accessibility
- WCAG 2.1 AA or EN 301 549
- Description of service interface
- UiPath Cloud Platform is composed of multiple independent services, such as Orchestrator, Tenant Management, Licensing Service, and others. To provide a seamless experience, we work hard to abstract these details from the end user and offer these services through a common front-end called UiPath Cloud Portal. All the services along with the Cloud Portal are packaged together as UiPath Cloud Platform and delivered via a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model that’s built and hosted in Microsoft Azure. All services use core Azure services, including compute, storage, networking, SQL database, and identity and access management services.
- Accessibility standards
- WCAG 2.1 AA or EN 301 549
- Accessibility testing
-
UiPath integrates accessibility into design, develop and quality
assurance processes of its dependent products. Compliance to
accessibility standards are evaluated through the use of automated
testing, manual validation with assistive technologies, and support form third party source. - API
- Yes
- What users can and can't do using the API
-
From the integration perspective, for automation, Cloud Platform
(SaaS) or Cloud Deployment can integrate with applications via the
APIs. Orchestrator’s REST API fully programmatically supports all
operations on the server-side like adding robots, processes, assets,
queues and starting/ stopping/ scheduling processes. This is the
standard way to integrate with external BPM or workflow tools, ERP,
CRM or any other applications . Orchestrator REST API is powerful
enough to integrate seamlessly with partner BPM systems or any other applications, providing 22 Custom API methods for access and control of 29 logical resources within Orchestrator (for example, Jobs, Logs, Queues, Robots and Settings). As an example of how users can use this, an external application such as a chatbot can easily trigger the robots to perform a task based on input in the chatbot. Refer here for more information on the APIs: ://orchestrator.uipath.com/reference - API documentation

Other data at rest protection approach
Each Customer is issued their own vault that stores certificates, keys, and any other credentials working between services. Additionally, all user accounts and application accounts are tied to a customer identity that serves as a separate domain. All database storage leverages AES CBC 256 or 128 where 256 is not available. Logical separation is created by means of encryption and separate accounts between services for each customer. - Data sanitisation process

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
-
UiPath will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide to
Customer an uptime of 99.9%. Uptime is measured per service per
region. The availability of the hosted service will be communicated to
the Customer on the https://status.uipath.com/ webpage or through
other channels, as appropriate. SLAs are specified in the user
agreement. - Approach to resilience
-
UiPath Automation Cloud leverages Azure resiliency natively for all
components. Currently replication is only between datacenters in the
geographic region (within the US or within the EU). This could be
expanded based on customer requirements. Refer here for more
information: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/features/resiliency/ - Outage reporting
-
The availability of the hosted service and any incidents/outages will be
communicated to the Customer on the https://status.uipath.com/
webpage. In the status.uipath.com portal, customers can sign up for
notifications and alerts via their preferred communication method:
email, text, ATOM, or RSS feed.
Identity and authentication
- User authentication needed
- Yes
- User authentication
-
- Identity federation with existing provider (for example Google Apps)
- Username or password
- Other
- Other user authentication
-
Bulk Provisioning of users is available via integration into common
Identity providers such as Azure AD, LinkedIn, and Google. UiPath’s
cloud platform allows for Single Sign On from a customer’s existing
cloud identity platform including Azure Active Directory and Google
Suite. Customers that leverage additional services such as Okta for
example, are able to leverage an Azure Active Directory Tenant that
supports SAML v2 federation to Okta to provide single sign on to the
UiPath cloud platform. If the identity provider integrated (such as
Google) requires two-factor authentication, the same applies when
user logs in to the UiPath Cloud Platform. - Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
-
We maintain strict control over who has access to our production
environment and customer data. UiPath has a team of Site Reliability
Engineers (SREs) who will monitor and manage production
environment 24x365. The SREs will require access to the production
environment only in cases of maintenance and support. UiPath support
operates on the principle of least privilege and has no access to the
environment unless first approved by the customer. Access to
production service is provided on a "just in time" basis and revoked as
soon as the situation is resolved. Access requests and approvals are
tracked. - Access restriction testing frequency
- At least every 6 months
- Management access authentication
-
- 2-factor authentication
- Dedicated link (for example VPN)
- Username or password
- Other
- Description of management access authentication
-
All UiPath employees are required to use VPN approved by the
organization. Access is granted on least privilege basis and only after
proper justifications are provided and verified. If a team member needs access to resolve an urgent issue or deploy a configuration change, they must apply for "just in time" access to the production service. Access is revoked as soon as the situation is resolved. Access requests and approvals are tracked. We use two-factor authentication for all production system access.

all users (employees, contractors, freelancers, vendors and
collaborators). 3. The policy will be subject to continuous monitoring
and regular improvement and will be reviewed annually and modified if
significant changes occur. 4. All data stored and processed by UiPath
will be handled according to an appropriate level of confidentiality and
in compliance with relevant regulatory and contractual requirements. 5.
Cyber security roles and responsibilities will be defined and
communicated. This policy along with other subsequent policies are
provided as training to all employees. Violation of policies lead to
disciplinary action, upto termination of employment.
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
-
For configuration changes to the service, for the regular maintenance
of the cloud platform, which may happen every two weeks, updates are
done in Deployment rings, and notification to customers are provided
via the portal: https://status.uipath.com/ . Major updates are also
announced in release notes. For infrastructure changes, UiPath Cloud
Platform is hosted in the Azure Data Centers. A change in storage
location or infrastructure would be treated as an infrastructure incident
triggering notification of the customer. UiPath has a dedicated team to
work with Microsoft and the Azure team who would be notified
immediately of any proposed change. - Vulnerability management type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
-
For external vulnerability testing, UiPath uses the services of Veracode
VAPT. UiPath Robots, UiPath Studio, and our on-premise (standalone)
Orchestrator are Veracode Continuous Certified. For the Cloud
Platform, we have Veracode certification, ISO 27001, and working
towards SOC 2 report. We also monitor vulnerabilities introduced in our
code base through third-party libraries and minimize our dependency
on these libraries and corresponding exposure. We also participate in
the HackerOne Bounty Program to identify vulnerabilities in our RPA
Platform and surrounding ecosystem. UiPath Cloud Services use
Azure's PaaS which automatically provides regular updates for known
security vulnerabilities in infrastructure. - Protective monitoring type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
-
UiPath employs a 24/7 Site Reliability Team that monitors security
alerts and incidents. UiPath monitors access management, application,
system, and network traffic both at the perimeter and within the
environment to prevent any malicious activity and to track availability
and performance. In the event of a breach, we use security response
plans to minimize data leakage, loss, or corruption. We provide
transparency to our customers throughout the incident
(https://status.uipath.com). Once the issue is contained, our security
incident management process continues as we identify the root cause
and track the necessary changes to ensure we prevent similar issues
in the future. - Incident management type
- Conforms to a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v3.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
- Incident management approach
-
Customers can raise a ticket through our online ticketing portal or use
phone-in support based on the support model purchased. In the event
of a breach, we use security response plans to minimize data leakage,
loss, or corruption. Our 24x7 SRE and Security team identify the issue
and engage the development team resources to contain the impact of
the incident. Once the team has contained an issue, our security
incident management process continues as we identify the root cause
and track changes to ensure we prevent similar issues in the
future. Incident management for the infrastructure is managed by
Azure.
