Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Both the product release and infrastructure changes are made by modification in source code since we use IaC (Infrastructure as Code) for managing our cloud infrastructure. Both are addressed via ticket management systems and repository changes.

This ensures that unauthorized changes are not possible due to all the approvals required in addition to granular access management for projects. Furthermore, since each change is tracked via ticketing and code commits, all changes leave audit trails for logging and monitoring requirements.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
A variety of vulnerability discovery methods are employed by the Information Security Team to find vulnerabilities in different systems. This is because some of these methods work better for internal environments, others work better for customer facing systems. These include (but are not limited to):

In house penetration testing
3rd party (vendor) penetration testing
Automated Vulnerability Scanning
Static Application Security Testing of the source code

Lifecycle of identified vulnerabilities are tracked through a ticketing system.

We also have various methods including public newsletters and notification channels with vendors to be notified about vulnerabilities in services we use.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
We track several metrics about the security health of the systems and have trigger based notification in place.
Potential compromises are triaged and tracked through the incident management ticketing system.
We have different internal SLOs based on the nature of the incident.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Post-quantum cryptography secure
No
Incident management approach
We have a Security Incident Management policy that describes the process, the evaluation criteria for security events vs incidents, the procedure of how to report an incident, and the required information for reporting security incidents.
We have multiple channels for reporting security incidents based on their prioritisation, including a ticketing system, realtime communication and dedicated email inboxes.
Incidents are then tracked and managed in another ticketing system for immediate mitigation efforts as well as post mortem analysis.
