Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)
Security gaps and scattered compliance evidence put sensitive data at risk. AppXcess GRC services build governance and security controls into the software and systems we deliver, so your data is better protected and audits are easier to prepare for.
Multi-Layered Protection for Data and Systems
Each layer answers a specific risk, from unauthorized access and data leaks to attacks and failed releases.
Zero-Trust Architecture
Zero-Trust means no user, device or system is trusted by default, even inside your own network. Every request is verified before access is granted, which limits how far an attacker can get with a single stolen password or infected laptop. Zero-Trust architecture is also a core part of our cybersecurity services.
Data Isolation
In multi-tenant applications we build, each customer's data sits in its own encrypted, isolated storage, separate from every other customer's.
Identity Verification
Every request is tied to a verified identity, and sessions end automatically when unusual activity appears, limiting misuse of stolen logins.
Role-Based Access (RBAC)
Role-based access control gives each person only the permissions their job needs, limiting the damage from mistakes or compromised accounts.
Continuous Audit
Every change is logged automatically, creating the audit trail compliance reviews ask for and reducing manual evidence gathering.
AI Traffic Insights
AI analyzes application traffic to detect and help block common attacks, such as SQL injection, reducing the risk of a data breach.
Runtime Resilience
Automatic rate limiting and traffic filtering keep your applications available during traffic spikes and attacks.
Secure Deployment
Our automated build-and-release pipeline (CI/CD) accepts only signed, tested and reviewed code, reducing the risk of faulty or tampered releases reaching production.
Governance Blueprint
How security checks and resilience safeguards are built into our software delivery.
Automated Vulnerability Checks
- Every code change is scanned for vulnerable third-party components before it is merged.
- Static application security testing (SAST) checks our code for security flaws on every build, so problems are caught early, when they are quicker and cheaper to fix.
- Patches for newly disclosed vulnerabilities in core services are applied through automation.
- A software bill of materials (SBOM) lists every component we ship, so we can quickly tell whether a newly reported vulnerability affects you.
Compliance Requirements We Support
We help you meet regulatory and audit requirements by building the right controls into the software and systems we deliver. AppXcess provides implementation and readiness support; ISO 27001 certificates and SOC 2 reports are issued by independent auditors, not by AppXcess.
Compliance works best when it is built into how software is delivered, not assembled the week before an audit.
HIPAA
US law protecting patient health information (PHI). We build encryption, granular access controls and immutable access logs into healthcare software to support HIPAA requirements.
GDPR
EU law governing personal data. We build automated discovery and masking of personal data into how it is stored (privacy by design) to support your GDPR obligations.
SOC 2 Type II
An independent auditor's report on how well an organization's security controls work over time. We build the controls these audits check into the software we deliver.
ISO 27001
The international standard for an information security management system (ISMS). We align the software we deliver, and how we release it, with its controls ahead of a certification audit.
Use case: Preparing the software we build for a SOC 2 Type II or ISO 27001 audit. Tell us which regulations and risks apply to you, and we will discuss the controls and evidence involved.
