At a glance
- Change control: production changes follow a controlled release process.
- Reviews: meaningful changes are peer reviewed before deployment.
- Dependency hygiene: dependencies are tracked and updated to address known issues.
- Security by default: we favor least privilege configuration and safe defaults.
Development practices
We incorporate security into the software development lifecycle (SDLC) through review, testing, and operational controls that reduce
the likelihood of introducing vulnerabilities into production.
- Peer review: changes are reviewed to catch logic errors, security issues, and unsafe patterns.
- Testing: automated and manual testing supports quality and stability.
- Configuration discipline: environment configuration and secrets are managed with controlled access.
Dependency management
Workplace.io relies on third-party libraries and services. We manage dependencies to reduce supply-chain risk and to address vulnerabilities
as they are discovered.
- Inventory: dependencies are tracked and updated over time.
- Updates: security updates are prioritized when patches are available.
- Review: changes that introduce or expand sensitive access are reviewed carefully.
Secrets and credentials
We protect secrets used for operations and integrations by restricting access and avoiding exposure in source code and logs. Access to
production credentials is limited to authorized personnel and systems.
- Access restriction: least-privilege access for operational secrets.
- Rotation: credentials can be rotated and replaced as needed.
- Logging hygiene: we avoid logging credentials and sensitive payloads.
Release process
Production releases follow a controlled process intended to reduce risk. We validate changes before rollout and monitor post-release behavior
to detect issues quickly.
- Review before release: changes are reviewed and tested prior to deployment.
- Post-release monitoring: monitoring helps detect regressions, elevated error rates, or performance degradation.
- Rollback readiness: releases are managed to enable remediation if unexpected issues arise.
Security testing
We perform security testing appropriate to our stage and customer needs. This includes internal review and targeted validation of high-risk
areas, along with remediation tracking and verification.
- Internal review: security-focused review of sensitive areas of the codebase and integration flows.
- Targeted validation: focused testing of authentication, authorization boundaries, and administrative actions.
- Remediation: findings are prioritized, tracked to resolution, and re-validated after fixes.
