IFS SOC reporting

SOC reporting demonstrates our commitment to following security best practice.

To achieve independent, third-party validation of our security controls, we engaged a major accounting firm to produce an Independent Service Auditor Report covering the description of Controls Design for our IFS Cloud and IFS Success services.

The activity was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by both the American Institute of Certified Publica Accounts (“AICPA”) Statement on Standards of Attestation Engagements number 18 (SSAE18) and Internation Standards on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3402 and 3000, Assurance Reports on Controls at a Service Organiszation, issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. These standards include verification of the common criteria controls along with the trust services criteria relevant to security, availability, confidentiality and privacy as applicable to both IFS Cloud and IFS Success services.

Third-party certifications

We expect our suppliers to apply the same high security standards that we do, evidenced through globally recognized certifications.

At IFS, we work hard with our suppliers to ensure the highest security standards are applied at every stage in the supply chain. From compliance with GDPR and applicable privacy, modern slavery prevention measures and more, we rigorously assess all our suppliers using a formal supplier management process.

To keep up with the changing landscape of global security, privacy and compliance, we regularly review our supplier’s performance and maintenance of their certifications.

Security built through trust

At IFS we set a high bar for our global security policies, standards and procedures. By using industry best practice security frameworks including ISO 27001, NIST 800-171, SSAE18/ISAE3402/ISAE3000 to create and maintain our Information Security Management System (ISMS), we stay aligned with or even ahead of industry best practices.

Information security policy

Managing information security

How we use detailed, trusted security practices to manage and secure your information.

At IFS we follow industry best practice, taking a risk-based approach, and putting particular emphasis on a range of trusted practices.

Security Operations Center (SOC)

We invest continually in our platform and network security, co-ordinated by our Security Operations Center (SOC). By using a combination of world-class conventional and Artificial Intelligence based tools and regular penetration testing, we ensure that our business operations are monitored and protected around the clock.

Access control
Our approach to access control ensures that our users, partners and suppliers have just the necessary level of access required to perform their roles efficiently and effectively.

Single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) are also active across our entire estate. Cryptography is used in transit and at rest to ensure the highest levels of data security whenever information is shared.

Business continuity
Through thorough business continuity planning, we have established a strong backup and recovery policy which sits at the heart of our disaster recovery plan. We have implemented resilient systems and processes capable of supporting us in the event of a business continuity event at one or more of our operating locations.

Our employees
We carry out extensive pre-employment checks and rigorous induction training, followed up with an ongoing annual security training program, to help maintain a safe physical and digital working environment. We follow formal employee on- and off-boarding processes to ensure that access to our IT domains are strictly controlled at all times and that information confidentiality is maintained through to post-employment.

Security for third party suppliers

We ensure that all third-party suppliers who support the delivery of our services apply the same high standards we set ourselves.

At times it may be necessary for third-parties to access sensitive and confidential information. Whether its information that belongs to IFS or IFS Customers, all third-parties with access are required to follow our information security policies, standards and practices. Our Supplier Management and Partner Management processes ensure that the services and deliverables provided by our third-party eco-system meet the same high standards that we set for ourselves.

Customer information security

Whether our customers choose the IFS Cloud service, on-premise hosting or their own Cloud environment, they can be assured that our products have been developed to the best security standards. All IFS products are routinely tested throughout the development lifecycle in order to identity and address any potential vulnerabilities.

In accordance with our Secure Product Development Lifecycle (SPDLC), segregation of environments, formal change management, independent test and validation and tightly controlled release and distribution processes all help assure product security and integrity of our customer solutions.

Since security threats are constantly evolving, we continuously monitor for new vulnerabilities and ensure that our customers are notified without delay should action be required to mitigate any new risks.

Secure delivery

From development to deployment, our products are managed securely and consistently.

IFS Lifecycle Experience (LE) is our set of processes covering the entire implementation and production lifecycle. Spanning from initial discovery and exploration of solutions through to continued solution optimization years after go-live, security is an integral part of our processes and includes environment segregation, formal change management, strictly controlled software release and distribution overlayed with strict access control and data protection.

IFS Lifecycle Experience provides the above security controls regardless of whether the customer has chosen to host the solution themselves or taken advantage of our IFS Cloud service.

Secure through development

We use industry best practice and external specialist penetration testers to validate the security of our products.

Using secure coding practices and globally recognized guidelines, such as OWASP Top 10, we ensure the risk of product vulnerabilities are minimized.

To further validate product security throughout the development lifecycle, we employ external specialist penetration testers. Any potential vulnerabilities are remediated prior to product release.

Secure through-life

We ensure our products remain secure by providing security patches to evolving vulnerabilities.

Security is not a “one-shot” activity and we continue to test our products after they’ve been released to protect against evolving security threats and any associated vulnerabilities. This includes checking for potential vulnerabilities not just in IFS developed products, but also within third-party products upon which the IFS product is based.

We provide security patches for any identified vulnerabilities discovered in our products and provide guidance on necessary patches of third-party products not supplied by IFS. IFS Cloud service customers benefit from such patches being applied by IFS as part of the service.

Customer security in the cloud

For customers choosing our IFS Cloud service, IFS take care of routine security activities associated with the IFS products. Starting with a secure deployment environment, we perform day-to-day security housekeeping including backups, security patching and monitoring the solution 24x7.

Our Cloud service is hosted in Microsoft Azure, providing industry leading, enterprise-grade security with the added protection that each solution is single tenant, thereby holding it completely isolated from other customer solutions. In addition to providing an extra layer of security, this enables greater flexibility and control for our customers who are able to align routine maintenance and upgrade activities with their own business schedules.

Additional to the security testing performed throughout the product development lifecycle, IFS Cloud service customers have the benefit of knowing that their solution resides in an environment that has been extensively penetration tested by an independent security specialist organization.

Implementing industry best practice

We implement industry recognized best practice as part of our cloud service delivery.

By choosing our IFS Cloud service, customers have the advantage of knowing that Cloud security best practices are being implemented for them, including:

Secure, fully segregated single-tenant architecture to ensure separation between customer environments
Data encryption both at rest and in transit
Virus and malware protection
24x7x365 Monitoring, Detection and Remediation services using advanced, enterprise grade toolsets operated by experienced practitioners
Platform-level DDoS detection and protection
Multi-level backups with geographically separated backup storage and multi-level restoration capability
Disaster recovery capability to a geographically separate location

Penetration testing by external specialists

We perform regular penetration tests of our services so our IFS Cloud service customers don’t have to.

We engage an independent 3rd party specialist organization to run regular security penetration tests against our Cloud Service in addition to security testing performed earlier in the product lifecycle. These tests cover all software versions current at the time of testing and include all IFS core product modules.

Testing takes place from the internet towards a dedicated, production-grade environment, which is built and maintained using the same architecture, design standards, tooling and processes as all customer environments run by IFS in our cloud.

A formal report is compiled as an output of this testing process, detailing any issues found and assigning an associated risk rating, based on the industry standard CVSSv2 scoring system. Any issues identified are fully analyzed and mitigation and remediation plans produced and implemented. The summary of findings and remediations is available to all IFS Cloud customers upon request.
