| Auto Scaling Our infrastructure auto-scales to maintain high availability and support demand |
| Backups and monitoring On an application level, we produce audit logs for all activity, ship logs to ELK for analysis and use S3 for archival purposes. All actions taken on production consoles or in the Intercom application are logged. |
| Denial of Service (DoS) Protection Intercom has measures to protect against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. |
| Disaster Recovery Intercom was built with disaster recovery in mind. All of our infrastructure and data are spread across 3 AWS availability zones and will continue to work should any one of those data centers fail. |
| Embargoed Countries Respected We block access to our product from an embargoed country based on the IP of the user. |
| Least privilege AWS Security Groups employed for our infrastructure are baselined regularly to maintain least privilege. IAM roles granted to intercomrades for our AWS production environment are baselined on a regular basis to maintain least privilege. |
| Network segmentation Network segmentation is implemented to separate sensitive systems and data from general user access networks. |
| Real-time monitoring and detection An endpoint monitoring tool / agent is deployed on all endpoints (corporate and production) to provide real-time monitoring, detection, and automated response to threats. |

| Endpoint encryption All corporate devices are encrypted to protect data in case of loss or theft. They can be remotely wiped to prevent data leakage if a device is compromised or lost. |
| Endpoint management We push updates to employee laptops such that they are on the latest, patched version of their required operating system. We require the use of a managed browser with only an approved set of browser extensions to ensure that only devices meeting our security standards can access our IDP and the applications secured by it. This control ensures that access to critical systems is restricted to compliant and secure devices, enhancing our overall security posture. |
| Endpoint protection All corporate laptops are configured with endpoint protection (EPP) with procedures in place to ensure infected machines cannot access our systems. |
