Scaling

Independence of resources
Our service ensures users are not affected by demand from others through isolated dual environments, UK‑based AWS cloud hosting, and continuous monitoring using CloudWatch, CloudTrail and custom health checks. These controls maintain stable performance and prevent cross‑tenant impact. AWS‑managed serverless architecture inherently provides elastic scaling and resource isolation that minimises contention. Offline response capture during recovery adds further resilience during peak load

Access to all systems is granted only via individual logins and passwords issued and governed by the super admin, with permissions limited to the minimum necessary for each role. Login activity, changes and failed attempts are continuously monitored.
Sensitive functions and administrative tools are restricted to authorised personnel only, and user rights cannot be altered without approval from the super admin. Support‑related access follows the same controls, ensuring only designated staff can view or handle sensitive information.

Security governance

Named board-level person responsible for service security
Yes
Security governance certified
Yes
Security governance standards
ISO/IEC 27001
Information security policies and processes
We operate under an ISO 27001‑certified Information Security Management System (ISMS) with Cyber Essentials certification, ensuring consistent governance and compliance. Our security framework is built on formally documented policies including the Information Security Policy, Data Protection Policy, Access Control Policy, and Security Incident Reporting Policy. These policies are reviewed annually and updated as required.

Information security responsibilities are clearly defined: the ISMS Manager oversees day‑to‑day security operations and technical controls; the Data Protection Officer (DPO) manages GDPR compliance, Subject Access Requests, DPIAs, and acts as the point of contact for supervisory authorities; senior leadership provides oversight and accountability. All employees are contractually required to follow policies and receive induction and annual refresher training on GDPR, cyber security and ISO standards.

We ensure adherence through monthly governance reviews, vulnerability testing, access‑rights reviews, and structured incident‑reporting processes that mandate prompt escalation and remediation. Security breaches must be reported immediately in line with our Incident Reporting Policy.

This governance model ensures confidentiality, integrity and availability across all systems and data we process.
Software Security Code of Practice
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
Our configuration and change‑management processes operate within our ISO 27001‑certified ISMS, where the ISMS Manager is responsible for maintaining, updating and controlling all security documentation and technical procedures. System components are tracked throughout their lifecycle via formal ISMS documentation, regular reviews and monitoring activities, including backups, access controls and risk assessments.
All changes follow defined governance steps: they are documented, reviewed for legal and security implications, and assessed for potential integrity, confidentiality and availability impacts before implementation. Security is embedded into all projects and daily operations, ensuring risks are identified and mitigated prior to deployment.
Vulnerability management type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
We operate a structured vulnerability‑management process centred on regular external penetration testing every six months, with no high or critical issues identified in the most recent assessment. We monitor potential threats through AWS‑based protections, including rate limiting and DDOS‑risk reduction, and continuously assess system health.
Patches—minor and major—are deployed routinely and maintained out of hours to minimise service disruption.
Threat intelligence is sourced from independent penetration‑test results, operational monitoring, and ongoing backup and disaster‑recovery exercises. This ensures timely identification, prioritisation and mitigation of vulnerabilities within our service.
Protective monitoring type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
We maintain comprehensive protective monitoring across our AWS environment using CloudTrail, CloudWatch, AWS Config and GuardDuty to detect, investigate and respond to security events. Application, system and database logs are centrally collected, encrypted and retained in line with policy. Database activity is monitored for anomalies such as failed logins or unusual queries. Automated alerts notify authorised personnel of security‑relevant events, which are triaged and escalated through our incident response process. Access to monitoring data is restricted via least‑privilege IAM roles, and monitoring rules, thresholds and alerts are regularly reviewed and improved based on emerging threats and operational experience.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
We operate a defined incident‑management process under our ISO 27001‑aligned Security Incident Reporting Policy. Common events, including security breaches and security weaknesses, have pre‑set procedures, corrective actions and documentation requirements. All users report incidents immediately to their line manager, who escalates them to the ISMS Manager via a formal Management Information Report.
Incidents are logged, assessed for urgency and impact, and responded to in the minimum possible time, with senior management involved for high‑impact cases. Corrective or preventive actions are documented using incident management or strategy forms, and incident reports are monitored until closure.
