Run Security data centers are co-located in first-tier data center facilities that implement industry leading physical access controls. Physical security is audited using the carve-out method, meaning that we perform rigorous subservice vendor reviews, and our independent auditors validate that our co-location providers have appropriate controls in place that meet SOC 2 Type 2 physical security controls at a minimum. These controls include:
Run Security infrastructure is secured through a defense-in-depth layered approach. Access to the production network infrastructure is provided through multi-factor authentication, which restricts network-level access to infrastructure based on job function utilizing the principle of least privilege. All access to the ingress points are closely monitored and are subject to stringent change control mechanisms.
Systems are protected through key-based authentication and access is limited by Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). RBAC ensures that only the users who require access to a system are granted appropriate access. We consider any system which houses customer data that we collect, or systems which house the data customers store with us to be of the highest sensitivity. As such, access to these systems is limited and closely monitored.
The security and availability of our infrastructure is extraordinarily important, and we understand that our role is to protect our customers from a variety of threats, many of which are highly sophisticated. User and system behaviors are monitored for suspicious activity, and investigations are performed following our incident reporting and response procedures. Root Cause Analysis is performed on all Security or Availability incidents regardless of whether they impact customer SLAs.
Run Security has an AICPA certified auditor issued SOC 2 Type 2 Report covering Security and Availability trust services criteria. The current report and bridge letter are available to existing customers who require it for their own compliance purposes. The description of the system contains the following information:
The description does not omit or distort information relevant to the service organization’s System while acknowledging that the description is prepared to meet the common needs of a broad range of users and may not; therefore, include every aspect of the System that each individual user may consider important to his or her own particular needs.
The controls stated in the description were suitably designed throughout the specified period to meet the applicable trust services criteria.
The Run Security Web Application Firewall can be used to satisfy PCI-DSS Requirement 6.6 when deployed within a customer’s PCI environment. While the sensors do not store or transmit cardholder data (PANs, CVVs, etc..), maintaining effective security controls are the responsibility of the customer and should be validated by a QSA.
Existing customers who manage PCI compliant environments can include Run Security on-premises sensors in their audit. At customer request, Run Security can provide documentation to validate that cardholder data is not being stored or transmitted. Always follow your QSA’s guidance on implementing and testing PCI security controls.
