Scaling

Independence of resources

- Availability: we check if the platform is up and running. In a down event, the system generates an alarm for immediate action. Furthermore, multiple KPIs are monitored (such as free space) to actively avoid downtimes.

- Responsiveness: We monitor a common use case (login->archive->search->retrieve->render->logout) in order to assess the response time. If the response time goes above a predefined threshold, the platform generates alarms for action."

Analytics

Approach to resilience
"Details available upon request, but in summary:
AWS data centre resilience is built on a multi-layered strategy of geographic separation, redundant infrastructure, and automated management to protect against failures and disruptions. Key components include building its global infrastructure with multiple geographically isolated AWS Regions, each containing several physically separate Availability Zones (AZs). Within each AZ, data centres are protected with redundant power from UPS systems and diesel generators, while highly redundant networking prevents single points of failure. To support customer resilience, AWS provides services like Resilience Hub to assess and improve application resilience, and tools like the Fault Injection Simulator to test responses to failures. "

Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
"We have a documented Vulnerability Management Policy (as is required to meet multiple standards).
The policy directs the establishment of vulnerability management practices in order to proactively prevent the exploitation of vulnerabilities and potential loss of customer sensitive data. It describes the in place mechanism to continuously scan the different building blocks composing the SER cloud
platform for known vulnerabilities in order to trigger remediation actions or acknowledge and accept the vulnerability due to its no applicability or no risk to the delivered services.
Protective monitoring type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
We have a documented Business Continuity Incident Response Procedure. This procedure is confidential.

The procedures set out in the document should be used only as guidance when responding to an incident. The exact nature of an incident and its impact cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty and so it is important that a good degree of common sense is used when deciding the actions to take.
However, it is intended that the structures set out will prove useful in allowing the correct actions to be taken more quickly and based on more accurate information.
