Identity and Access Management System for Single Sign-On: The Vyn Platform includes a powerful authentication configuration layer. Integration is supported with identity providers that support OAuth 2.0 / Open ID Connect
Enterprise mobile apps: The Vyn Platform provides APIs to launch the workflow from any other application via a deep link. Developers can add a simple button in an enterprise mobile app or to an email notification generated by Customer systems.
Enterprise Reporting, BI, analytics platforms: Every time a Vyn is published by a user, the vyn publish webhook API is invoked which contains all relevant information about the newly recorded vyn in a JSON format. This information can be saved in the system of record (pre-integration available for many applications) like Salesforce and Maximo. The reporting software can then pick up this additional data from the system of record and generate or extend any custom reports as needed

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Backend application and infrastructure is managed using code which is stored in source control. Changes are managed using GitHub pull requests. PRs require review and approval by defined persona and changes are tested in separated staging environments prior to production deployment.
Emergency updates can be deployed with a hotfix onto the master branch.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Vulnerability management adheres to the NCSC Vulnerability management guidance.
Automated vulnerability management tools include:
Static code analysis
Source control scanning (GitHub)
Threat detection (Amazon GuardDuty)
Development processes include:
Shift left approach to security
Code reviews
Keep all third-party software (OS, utilities, libraries, etc.) up to date with the latest patches for any security vulnerabilities.
Regular vulnerability/penetration testing scans using OpenVAS and OWASP ZAP
Regular dependency analysis
Regular prioritisation of vulnerability fixes based on technical and business impact- prioritisation is done by a team that includes security, infrastructure, operations and engineering owners
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
AWS GuardDuty and SecurityHub detect security issues and automatically create GitHub issues with findings.
Incident response begins immediately and an investigation within 24hrs, beginning with the categorisation of the incident. These could be broadly broken into service interruption, un-authorised data share or a service request.
Any outcomes and action will be promptly communicated to the incident reporter, the affected user/s, the client side representative, and hL’s Data Protection Officer, if information security related.
