Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Our service is delivered with high availability supported by Microsoft’s underlying cloud platform, which provides a financially backed 99.9% uptime for hosted services. At the service‑delivery layer, we agree on project‑specific or support‑specific SLAs within the call‑off or statement of work. Where explicitly agreed service levels are not met, proportionate service credits may apply.

These credits reflect the impact of non‑performance rather than acting as penalties, and are only applied where the issue is within our reasonable control. Service credits typically range from 2–20% of the monthly charges, depending on severity and are capped in line with public‑sector norms. Service credits follow a transparent process—joint validation, reporting, and crediting on the next invoice—and never limit the buyer’s contractual rights or remedies
Approach to resilience
Our services are delivered on top of Microsoft’s highly resilient global cloud infrastructure, meaning the solutions we build benefit directly from the same enterprise‑grade availability and reliability built into Azure and the wider Microsoft cloud. Microsoft provides resilience through geographically distributed datacentres, each containing multiple independent availability zones with separate power, cooling and networking, ensuring services remain operational even if a zone fails. These locations are kept within GDPR requirements based on the buyers needs.

Data is automatically replicated across storage nodes and, where required, to secondary paired regions for disaster recovery. All traffic runs across Microsoft’s private global backbone network, enabling rapid failover, intelligent routing and reduced exposure to public‑internet risks. Combined with automated load‑balancing, health monitoring and self‑healing orchestration, this architecture ensures high availability, fault tolerance and operational resilience for every solution we deliver.
Outage reporting
Because our services runs on Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure, any service outages are reported directly through Microsoft’s official channels.

Microsoft maintains a public service‑health dashboard where customers can view real‑time and historical service status.

Organisations with appropriate admin roles can also access the Microsoft 365 Service Health API, enabling programmatic monitoring and integration with internal dashboards or alerting tools. Additionally, Microsoft provides email and in‑tenant notifications through the Microsoft 365 message centre for incidents, advisories and planned maintenance. Where we provide ongoing support, we monitor these channels on the buyer’s behalf and communicate relevant impacts through agreed project or support governance processes

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
The web application restricts access through authentication with role-based permissions mapped to three portal types: Admin (full system configuration and user management), Operator (operational management and monitoring), and Base User (standard application functionality).

Admin portals require multi-factor authentication, while Operator and User access enforces strong password policies. Conditional access policies can be enabled to further restrict Admin and Operator access by IP address.

Each role has minimum necessary permissions with session timeouts.

Support channels are accessed only through authenticated portal accounts with designated support role assignments. Password resets and account recovery require verification through multiple channels to prevent unauthorized access.

Information security policies and processes
Our service operates within Flyte’s ISO 27001:2022‑certified Information Security Management System (ISMS). As documented in our core ISMS policies, we follow a fully audited, continuously improved framework that ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all information we process. This includes maintaining documented and verifiable security policies, enforcing standardised security procedures, and ensuring all information assets are protected through risk‑based controls aligned with ISO 27001 requirements.

Our ISMS covers data classification and handling, secure development, access control, incident management, backup, key management, security testing, and supplier management, as outlined in our organisation‑wide policies and procedures. These processes ensure that security incidents are reported, investigated, and recorded; legal and regulatory requirements—such as GDPR—are met; and risks are regularly assessed and treated.

Yes

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Configuration and change management approach
Flyte follows a structured, ISO‑aligned change management process covering internal systems and client environments. All service components are tracked throughout their lifecycle using controlled solution management, documented change control notes, versioning, environment promotion (DEV → UAT → PROD) and mandatory written approvals for deployments. Changes are categorised by risk level, recorded using standard and emergency change templates, and logged for audit consistency. Security impact is assessed through formal risk reviews, configuration checks, dependency analysis, and alignment with secure development, access control and ISO27001 controls, ensuring every modification is evaluated for potential vulnerabilities before implementation.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Vulnerabilities are identified through automated scanning tools running continuously against the web application code.
Manual penetration testing is conducted annually or after major changes.
Application code undergoes OWASP security testing during development.
Azure platform vulnerabilities are monitored through Microsoft's security advisories.

Patch Deployment Timeline:
Critical vulnerabilities: Within 24-48 hours of patch availability
High severity: Within 7 days
Medium severity: Within 30 days
Low severity: During scheduled maintenance windows

We get out information from:
National Vulnerability Database (NVD/CVE)
Vendor security bulletins for third-party components
Security mailing lists and industry threat intelligence feeds
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Azure Security Center/Microsoft Defender continuously monitors for threats including unusual login patterns, suspicious network activity, malware, and unauthorized access attempts.

We also have application-level monitoring tracks failed authentication attempts. Upon detecting potential compromise: immediate alert notification to security team.

Response time is between 2-48 hours dependant on the severity of the compromises,
