Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Medallia uses a structured release and change management process to provision systems and update application software. Impact assessments must be performed and documented before change requests are approved. Changes are documented, scheduled, reviewed, tested and released regularly in accordance with our Change Management Plan and SDLC. The process applies to off-the-shelf products, internally-developed systems, and externally developed applications and/or systems. Whenever possible, changes are scheduled far enough in advance to allow time to notify any clients’ whose service may be affected by the change.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Medallia regularly tests its network for vulnerabilities to ensure the security of our infrastructure. Our process includes regular and ad hoc vulnerability scanning. We monitor vulnerabilities listed in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database. We pay attention to the threat landscape and frequently test for threats on the OWASP Top 10 list, such as input validation, XSS and various injection attacks. Any vulnerabilities identified as part of this process are analyzed and remediated in accordance with our Vulnerability Management Standard. We also perform both internal and external penetration tests, both internally and through partnerships with independent expert 3rd-party security firms.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Medallia relies on a wide variety of monitoring systems to provide a highly available service. In order to identify, block and prevent network attacks, we monitor event logs and alerts from multiple network security devices, looking for unusual or unauthorized activities or unusual conditions at ingress/egress points. We also monitor key performance metrics to ensure we have sufficient resources for optimal performance. An on-call schedule ensures that operations team members are always ready to respond to critical events.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Our Computer Security Incident Response Team includes representatives from the Executive, Legal, and Information Systems Management teams. In the event of an incident, CSIRT will perform an initial analysis, assess the severity of the incident, and notify leadership and relevant stakeholders. CSIRT takes measures necessary to stop/contain the incident, and then coordinate the deployment of controls and countermeasures to prevent a recurrence of the incident. Medallia notifies the client of any incident that affects their data and it’s severity has been classified as SEV1, SEV2 or SEV3 where SEV1 is high severity and SEV 3 is low severity.

Fighting climate change

With Success from Sustainability as one of our core company values and our key pillar in our Environmental, Social, Governance strategy, we consider environmental impact just as we do our software — as an aspect of business in which we must strive for continuous improvement. That is why we want to celebrate today through action, from day-to-day habits we can all take to reduce our own personal environmental impact to spotlighting environmental justice nonprofits who we’ve had the honor of supporting. https://www.medallia.com/blog/success-from-sustainability-earth-day-2022/
Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

At this time we believe it is imperative to think about our team members and customers. The world has changed for the moment and every business is adjusting to new ways of working in a very challenging environment indeed. Whether it is massive demand for certain products and services or a temporary but painful reduction in demand as travel limitations and social distancing make their impact, it is worth remembering that this is a time when today’s brands and their reputations will be tested and tomorrow’s leaders will emerge. The way we connect to our employees and our customers is critical and will be remembered as organizations recover and find their footing. At Medallia we have a robust response capability for COVID-19 challenges. I am personally talking with our great customers and partners every day about their vital needs at this time and am happy to share our experiences, observations and best practice ideas now. This is the time to stay connected to customers and employees, to capture as many signals as you can about how they are feeling and what they need. The same goes for our team members. We will do all we can to provide you with the technology to support a single view of the customer and employee experience at a time in our lives when it could not possibly matter more. Here at Medallia, we are re-affirming our pledge to all of our employees and customers. It goes without saying that whilst we will maintain our performance requirements and our code of conduct approach to all employment matters we do not intend layoffs in 2020 related to any impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. https://www.medallia.com/blog/keeping-our-companies-customers-brands-and-people-connected-at-this-challenging-time/

Wellbeing

Wellbeing

We’re up against a growing number of challenges — the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, racial injustices, global economic turmoil, and natural disasters, to name a few of the most pressing crises. With the impacts of each of these sure to be lasting upon our collective mental health, the call to action is clear. This is a moment for listening, understanding, and reaching out — and for helping individuals in need. That’s why we at Medallia, in collaboration with our social impact arm, Medallia.org, has announced a series of new initiatives we’re launching to help individuals in crisis, particularly the most impacted among us — including BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), LGBTQ+, veterans, and caretakers. As a company dedicated to listening to understand and take action, we cannot think of a more important issue to tackle with this philosophy than in the areas of mental health and suicide prevention. Among the first of many new mental health initiatives in the works, we’re thrilled to share that we have awarded an $80,000 USD grant round from our new Medallia.org Fund, a donor advised fund of Tides Foundation, to two mental health nonprofits ($40,000 USD each). As part of this grant, we are also contributing two years’ free subscriptions of Medallia products along with Professional Services support and Experience Management training to these two organizations. https://www.medallia.com/blog/medallia-mental-health-initiatives/
