Network Security

Dedicated Security Team

Our dedicated security team is available 24/7 to monitor and respond to any security events and alerts.

Protection

Our network is protected through regular audits, and network intelligence technologies, which monitor and/or block malicious traffic and network attacks.

Architecture

Our network security architecture consists of multiple security zones. Sensitive systems such as database servers are protected with private subnets with controls and restrictions on traffic emerging from or to the subnet. Depending on the zone, additional security monitoring, and access controls will be deployed. DMZs are utilized between the Internet, and internally between the different zones of trust.

Network Vulnerability Scanning

Network security scanning is carried out regularly for quick identification of out-of-compliance or potentially vulnerable systems.

Intrusion Detection & Prevention

We have deployed AWS GuardDuty that continuously monitors our networks to deliver intelligent security analytics and threat intelligence, thereby providing a single solution for attack detection, threat visibility, proactive hunting, and threat response.

DDoS Mitigation

We have deployed AWS Shield, a managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service, to safeguard emSigner. AWS Shield provides always-on detection and automatic inline mitigations that minimize application downtime and latency.

Logical Access

Access to the emSigner Production Network is restricted on an explicit need-to-know basis. Least privilege access is continuously audited, monitored, and controlled by our Security Team. Employees accessing the emSigner Production Network are required to use multiple factors of authentication to ensure security.
