Additional Details on Our General Security Practices
Our adherence to these security measures is supported by a series of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that guide our daily operations. These SOPs are crafted to ensure that all processes, from secure code deployment to data exchange, are carried out in alignment with recognized standards and best practices.
1. Secure Data Exchange
We use encryption and other secure methods for data transmission, ensuring that sensitive information is protected at all stages. This aligns with our commitment to maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of client data.
2. Business Continuity and Incident Response
Our business continuity plans and incident response procedures are designed to ensure minimal disruption in the event of a disaster, with a strong focus on maintaining security throughout any incident.
3. Continuous Monitoring and Improvement
We continuously monitor our systems to identify and mitigate potential security threats, ensuring that our practices evolve in response to new risks.
At Solin, our goal is to provide peace of mind to our clients by aligning our practices with globally recognized standards like ISO 27001, even in the absence of formal certification. For more information on how we protect your data, please contact us.
Focus on Security During Development: Commitment to Preventing OWASP Top 10 Security Risks
At Solin, we take the security of our custom development seriously. We understand the importance of safeguarding against the most critical security risks identified by the OWASP Top 10. While we do not currently pursue formal certifications, we have implemented robust practices to ensure our applications are secure.
Key Measures We Employ:
1. Rigorous Code Review Process
Every piece of code we develop undergoes a meticulous review process. Our experienced developers scrutinize code for potential security vulnerabilities, including those outlined in the OWASP Top 10. This manual review ensures that security is built into our applications from the ground up.
2. Penetration Testing
We regularly conduct penetration testing on our applications to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities. These tests are performed by security experts who simulate attacks to uncover weaknesses that could be exploited. We focus on addressing the risks identified by the OWASP Top 10, such as injection flaws, broken authentication, and sensitive data exposure.
3. Comprehensive Security Policies and SOPs
Our development processes are guided by comprehensive Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that are aligned with security best practices. These SOPs cover secure coding practices, incident response, and asset management, ensuring that all aspects of our development lifecycle are secure.
4. Asset Management and Security Controls
We maintain strict controls over our assets, including hardware used by our employees, such as laptops. We ensure that these assets are securely managed throughout their lifecycle, from deployment to decommissioning, in alignment with ISO 27001’s Asset Management guidelines (A.8).
5. Transparency and Continuous Improvement
We believe in transparency with our clients and regularly provide reports on our security practices. We are committed to continuous improvement and regularly update our processes to address emerging threats and ensure ongoing compliance with security standards.
By adopting these practices, Solin is dedicated to minimizing the risk of introducing vulnerabilities into our custom applications. Our approach ensures that security is not just an afterthought but a fundamental part of our development process.
