Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Service components including code, infrastructure, hardware and third party tools used in the ongoing provision of services are tracked throughout their lifecycles using version control, configuration management platforms, and asset inventories. Changes are requested via a documented change process and are reviewed before implementation. Change requests are assessed for potential operational and security impact on access controls, effect on data, and existing or future dependencies. Requests for significant change require sign off from senior leadership and/or Security Lead. Approved changes are documented for audit and traceability purposes.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Potential threats are identified through cloud provider alerts and advisories, vendor alerts and advisories, code reviews, log reviews, and industry security communications. Vulnerabilities are assessed based on severity, exploitability, and potential impact to users, data, and continuity of service. Patches and configuration updates are prioritised accordingly, with high-risk issues addressed as soon as practicable. Thrive performs automated and manual quality assurance and security testing on every major release.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Protective monitoring is in place across our environment and applications to support the identification of potential compromises. These measures include cloud-based detection tools, alerting, and logging (including administrative logs, with appropriate retention policies). Potential compromises detected by monitoring tools and/or identified by the engineering team are escalated to the Security Lead for investigation. If a potential compromise is detected, access can be restricted, affected systems isolated, and logs reviewed to determine root cause, impact, and appropriate response measures. Security incidents are triaged promptly and responded to in a timeframe commensurate with severity.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
We maintain pre-defined incident management processes for common events. Suspected incidents reported by customers or employees are referred to the Security Lead who acts as incident owner and is responsible for managing response, escalation, and communication with senior leadership. Incidents detected by internal monitoring follow the same escalation path. Incident reports to include root cause analysis, impact, and remediation actions are documented and shared with relevant stakeholders after resolution. Affected users, customers and relevant government entities (where required) will be notified in a timely manner by email or phone.
