Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Nintex uses a range of automated tools to monitor service availability and responsiveness. In the event a service is operating outside of expected threshold/s alerts are triggered and sent to the relevant teams for investigation. Nintex does not commit to financially backed SLA but aims to provide an availability of 99.99% across the Platform capabilities.
Approach to resilience
The Nintex Process Platform capabilities are built using a scalable cloud architecture. Nintex continually monitors overall platform performance and when required, scales based on need. Where applicable, we leverage auto-scaling and manual provisioning tailored to the requirements of each Nintex capability.
Nintex has an overarching Business Continuity Management (BCM) Plan for internal operations, and a Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) for its cloud-based Platform capabilities.

Information security policies and processes
Nintex has an Information Security Policy that defines the necessary rules for security protection, and it ensures secure and reliable operations in accordance with our business requirements as well as relevant laws and regulations. The Nintex Information Security Policy and its related policies and guidelines support the Nintex Information Security Program.
The Information Security Team at Nintex reports to the Nintex Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and is responsible for the overall security of the Nintex Process Platform. This responsibility includes working with the Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) group in developing company-wide security policies and guidelines, performing risk assessments, adherence to compliance initiatives, security related education and identifying the technical, administrative, or physical controls that should be in place to support the mission of information security.
Nintex is committed to maintaining the security of its cloud-based capabilities. To that end Nintex obtains external reviews, including SOC2 audits, of the majority of its cloud based products to ensure that there are controls in place protecting customer data.

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Nintex has Enterprise Change Management guidelines that provide direction and support for performing consistent production level activities for routine changes, scheduled changes and emergency changes.

Protective monitoring approach
Nintex collects and consolidates security relevant logs and data from corporate and cloud infrastructure, including devices and applications using a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system. The SIEM is monitored 24x7x365 by an external Managed Security Solution Provider (MSSP), who performs initial investigations of any detected issues/anomalies and notifies Nintex according to pre-defined escalation procedure. Threat feed-based detection and use cases are created and reviewed by Nintex in-house team and MSSP on on-going basis.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
