Security Statement

How we secure your data.

Thirdsentry maintains rigorous controls across infrastructure, data protection, application security, and operations. This statement summarizes the practices that protect customer data.

Last updated · March 2025

At Thirdsentry, we prioritize the security of customer data and maintain rigorous controls to safeguard it against unauthorized access, breaches, and other cyber threats. Our approach encompasses infrastructure, data protection, application security, and operational practices.

Section 01

Infrastructure Security

Enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure provides a robust foundation for the Thirdsentry platform.

Hosting environment

Thirdsentry is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which maintains industry-leading security controls and compliance with major standards including ISO 27001, SOC 2, and PCI DSS.

Data centers

  • Certified for ISO 27001, SOC 2, and PCI DSS
  • 24/7 monitoring with intrusion detection systems
  • Fire suppression and environmental controls

Network security

  • Firewalls and intrusion prevention systems guard against unauthorized access
  • Network segmentation isolates sensitive systems and is reviewed on a recurring cadence

Server security

  • Operating systems and software are patched on a defined cadence to mitigate vulnerabilities
  • Server configurations are hardened against CIS benchmarks
Section 02

Data Protection

Customer data is protected with industry-standard encryption and stringent access controls.

Encryption

  • In transit: TLS 1.2+ on every connection between the user and Thirdsentry
  • At rest: AES-256 across all primary data stores and backups

Backups

  • Daily backups stored in geographically redundant locations
  • Backup integrity is verified through automated checks and periodic restoration tests

Access controls

  • Role-based access control (RBAC) is enforced on every customer record
  • Multi-factor authentication is required for all administrative access

Data retention

Thirdsentry retains customer data only as long as necessary to fulfill contractual obligations or comply with legal requirements.

Section 03

Application Security

The Thirdsentry application is designed with security as a first-class concern, not an afterthought.

Authentication

  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and Single Sign-On (SSO) via leading identity providers
  • Passwords are hashed and salted with modern algorithms (bcrypt)

Session management

Sessions are bounded by timeouts and continuous activity monitoring to reduce exposure to session hijacking.

Access control

  • Granular access levels ensure users see only data and features required for their role
  • Access permissions are audited on a recurring schedule
Section 04

Security Operations

A proactive security posture with continuous monitoring, testing, and incident response.

Security monitoring

  • Continuous monitoring of systems and applications for suspicious activity via SIEM tooling
  • 24/7 alerting and response for anomalies

Incident response

  • A formal incident response plan defines detection, containment, eradication, and recovery
  • Post-incident reviews drive corrective actions back into the control set

Security testing

  • Applications and infrastructure undergo independent penetration testing on a recurring cadence
  • Automated vulnerability scanning ensures known risks are remediated within SLA

Vulnerability management

Identified vulnerabilities are prioritized by risk and remediated within predefined SLAs.

Section 05

Compliance & Certifications

Thirdsentry adheres to recognized industry standards. Certificates of compliance are available upon request.

Frameworks

  • SOC 2 Type II
  • ISO 27001
  • GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
  • CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act)

Audits

Regular audits are conducted by independent third-party firms to verify compliance and the operating effectiveness of our control environment.

Section 06

Employee Security

Every employee is trained, equipped, and accountable to maintain the platform's security posture.

Security training

Mandatory security training is delivered during onboarding and on a recurring schedule, covering social engineering, phishing, secure development, and incident reporting.

Access controls

Role-based access is enforced across all internal systems. Employees are granted access only to the systems necessary for their role.

Background checks

Comprehensive background checks are conducted for all employees with access to sensitive systems or customer data.

Awareness program

Continuous education on emerging threats keeps the team current on adversarial tactics and protective practices.

Section 07

Physical Security

Stringent measures protect facilities, hardware, and operational continuity.

Office security

  • Restricted access via keycard systems with biometric authentication where applicable
  • Security cameras monitor entry and exit points

Hardware security

  • All workstations and mobile devices are encrypted and protected with managed endpoint security
  • Remote wipe is enabled for lost or stolen devices

Environmental controls

Facilities are equipped with fire suppression, uninterruptible power supplies, and climate controls to ensure operational continuity.

Section 08

Continuous Improvement

Security is a continuous process, not a fixed end state.

Our commitments

  • Evolving security practices to meet emerging threats
  • Adopting new technologies that strengthen our security posture
  • Reviewing and updating security policies and procedures on a regular cadence
  • Maintaining transparency with customers about our security measures
