Kubernetes Security
Our Kubernetes implementation follows best practices:
- Pod Security Standards: Enforcement of security policies
- Network Policies: Control of pod-to-pod communication
- RBAC Implementation: Role-based access control
- Admission Controllers: Validation and mutation of resources
- Secret Encryption: Encryption of secrets at rest
Data Security
Encryption
We implement comprehensive encryption measures:
- Encryption at Rest: Encryption for stored data
- Encryption in Transit: TLS 1.3 for all data transfers
- Database Encryption: Managed database encryption
- UUIDs and CUIDs: Protection against IDOR attacks through non-sequential IDs
Backup and Recovery
- Automatic Backups: Daily encrypted backups
- Geographic Distribution: Backups in separate data centers
- Managed Database Services: Enterprise-grade backup strategies
Database Security
- Managed PostgreSQL: UbiCloud managed database with encryption
- Connection Encryption: Encrypted database connections
- Privilege Management: Minimal database permissions
- Access Logging: Logging of all DB access
Monitoring and Alerting
Comprehensive Monitoring System
We implement a multi-layered monitoring system:
- Service Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of all services
- Real-time Alerts: Automatic notification of critical events
- Log Archiving: Central collection and archiving of system logs
- Error Tracking: Real-time error monitoring and analysis
- Health Checks: Kubernetes-based health monitoring
- Structured Logging: Complete traceability of all service interactions
Performance and Availability
- Uptime Monitoring: Continuous availability monitoring
- Performance Metrics: Monitoring of response times
- Automated Alerting: Automatic calls for critical outages

Detailed Incident Response Plans: Specific escalation paths, response times, and operational procedures are documented in our internal incident response plan and available after NDA signing.
Response Procedures
Our incident response follows established principles:
- Detection: Automatic and manual detection
- Analysis: Assessment of severity and impact
- Containment: Containment of the incident
- Recovery: Restoration of normal operations
- Lessons Learned: Post-incident analysis
