Data-in-transit protection

Data protection between buyer and supplier networks: TLS (version 1.2 or above)

Other
Other protection between networks: GoTo uses perimeter protection tools, techniques and services to protect against unauthorized network traffic entering product infrastructure. Some include:
• IDSs that monitor systems, services, networks, applications for unauthorized access
• Critical system and configuration file monitoring to prevent or reduce the likelihood of unauthorized modification
• Web application firewall and application-layer DDoS prevention service through which traffic is proxied to block malicious server traffic
• A local application firewall that provides an additional layer of protection against OWASP top ten and other web application vulnerabilities and malicious traffic
• Host-based firewalls on web-servers that filter inbound and outbound connections
Data protection within supplier network: TLS (version 1.2 or above)

Other
Other protection within supplier network: IETF standard TLS protocols are used to protect communication between endpoints. All traffic flowing in and out of data centers that hold GoTo data, including all Customer Content, is encrypted in transit.
When TLS connections are established, GoTo-servers authenticate themselves to clients, using public key certificates. When supported by User-equipment, TLS is used to secure the traffic between User equipment and the Service’s
infrastructure. TLS secures the transfer of provisioning information, which includes the physical phone’s credentials, from the Service’s infrastructure to the phones. Media is transmitted using SRTP while audio traffic is secured using shared keys transmitted over SIPS

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability: GoTo strives for high redundancy and availability of our services and infrastructure. Publicly available status updates are available at: https://status.gotomeeting.com/. Service Level Agreements are mutually agreed upon and covered in the Terms of Service and/or written agreement for the GoTo services with our customers.
Approach to resilience: In order to provide redundancy, call failover, scalability, and high availability, GoTo uses a containerized microservice mesh which allows for rapid deployment and scaling of services. This full-mesh design allows for microservices to self-discover and self-recover in the event of an outage at any specific datacentre or in the event of an issue localized geographically on the public Internet. Services are designed to fail-over between datacentres automatically.
The infrastructure is connected between datacenters in the form of “clusters” with interconnectivity of a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)/mesh network. VPLS connections can fail-over to a Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network (DMVPN) in case primary links go offline. Each site has multiple peering connections with the public Internet.
Connectivity to the PSTN is made from each datacenter location to multiple PSTN Partners/providers via SIP trunks through the public Internet.
In order to provide high availability, GoTo operates a network of datacenters in a fully interconnected mesh. These datacenters operate with a capacity of N+1 datacenters, meaning that the Service has been designed to sustain the failure of the equivalent of one datacenter worth of capacity, and still have the ability to maintain uptime by automatically forwarding traffic to additional datacenter sites.
Outage reporting: A public dashboard available at status page. Status updates can be provided via phone, e-mail, RSS Feed, etc. through the Trust Center webpage.

Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels: Logical Access Control procedures are in place, designed to prevent or mitigate the thread of unauthorized application access and data loss in corporate and production environments. Employees are granted minimum (or "least privilege") access to specified GoTo systems, applications, networks and devices as needed. Further, user privileges are segregated based on functional role and environment. Users shall only be provided with access to the network and services that they have been specifically authorized to use.

At least annually, applicable policies are reviewed by management to ensure that any procedures or standards are updated in accordance with contractual and legal commitments and company requirements/standards. In order to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of GoTo Information and IT systems we do not send customers these documents.
Security Policies are relayed to employees at the time of hire and available in the Employee Handbook. They are also communicated to all Global Employees on a regular basis. Additionally, they are hosted on our internal site. GoTo employees and temporary workers are informed on a continuous basis, as determined by the company, about security and privacy guidelines, procedures, policies and standards through various mediums of communication such as awareness campaigns, new hire on-boarding kits, webinars with the CISO, annual policy compliance, security training targeting specific roles (such as software developers), security champion programs, as well as visual media campaigns.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard: Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach: A Change Management Policy has been developed in accordance with relevant commitments and requirements detailing the procedures for infrastructure and development changes, including design, implementation, configuration, testing, modification, and maintenance of systems. Further, processes and procedures are in place in order to verify that changes have been authorized, approved and tested before being applied to a production environment. Policies are in place to provide guidance for the management, modification, and implementation of system changes to infrastructure and supporting applications.
Vulnerability management type: Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach: Internal and external system and network vulnerability scanning is conducted monthly. Dynamic and static application vulnerability testing, as well as penetration testing activities for targeted environments, are also performed periodically. These scanning and testing results are reported into network monitoring tools and, where appropriate and predicated on the criticality of any identified vulnerabilities, remediation action is taken. Vulnerabilities are also communicated and managed with monthly and quarterly reports provided to the relevant development teams, as well as management.
Protective monitoring type: Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach: Endpoint Detection and Response software with audit logging is deployed on all GoTo servers to
minimize disruption or impact on the performance of the Service. Security investigations will be initiated in accordance with our incident response procedures if suspicious activity is detected, as appropriate and necessary.
GoTo maintains policies and procedures around logging, monitoring and alerting, which set out
the principles and controls that are implemented to bolster our ability to detect suspicious activity and respond to them on a timely basis. GoTo collects identified anomalous or suspicious traffic in relevant security logs in applicable production systems.
Incident management type: Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach: GoTo’s Security Operations Center is responsible for detecting and responding to security events.
It uses security sensors and analysis systems to identify potential issues and has developed incident response procedures, including a documented IR Plan.
GoTo’s Plan is aligned with critical communication processes, policies and standard operating procedures. It's designed to manage, identify and resolve relevant suspected or identified security events across its systems and services. The Plan sets out mechanisms for employees to report suspected security events and escalation paths to follow when appropriate. Suspected events are documented, escalated as appropriate via standardized tickets and triaged based upon criticality.
