Cloud Security Alliance
Authentic8 is a proud participant in the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Security, Trust, Assurance, and Risk (STAR) registry. We maintain a STAR Level 1 status, demonstrating our commitment to transparency and security by providing a detailed, public self-assessment of our cloud security controls.
Key Highlights of Authentic8’s CSA STAR Participation
| Focus Area | Implementation & Transparency |
|---|---|
| CAIQ Self-Assessment | Authentic8 completes and maintains the Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ). This standardized document provides answers to nearly 300 questions across 17 security domains, offering a deep dive into our operational and technical safeguards. |
| Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) | Our security posture is mapped directly to the CSA Cloud Controls Matrix, the industry-standard framework designed specifically to address the unique security requirements and risks of cloud computing. |
| Ease of Due Diligence | By making our security responses available through the STAR Registry, we streamline the vendor risk management process for our customers, providing the “source of truth” for our security claims. |
By participating in STAR Level 1, Authentic8 provides customers with:
- Instant Verification: Direct access to our security documentation without the need for initial back-and-forth manual questionnaires.
- Standardized Reporting: Security data formatted in a way that is easily consumable by global IT and compliance teams.
- Proactive Security Culture: A public commitment to the CSA’s principles of cloud security, ensuring our platform is measured against the latest industry best practices.
