Sitefinity Cloud regulatory compliance and standards

To ensure top level industry security and architecture, Progress Sitefinity Cloud complies with different regulatory standards. Some organizations require cloud service provider deployments to be meeting one or more of the current and most popular regulatory standards to ensure proper governance of their application infrastructure, code, and data.

Following is a summary of the regulatory standards that Progress Sitefinity Cloud complies with as a product:

SOC2

System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC2), defined by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), is the name of a suite of reports produced during an independent audit. It is intended for use by service organizations (organizations that provide information systems as a service to other organizations) to issue validated reports of internal controls over those information systems to the users of those services.

The reports focus on controls grouped into five categories, called Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.

The Sitefinity Cloud SOC2-compliance reports can be downloaded from Progress Security Center.

HIPAA

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) defines the security and privacy regulations required to protect sensitive patient health data. The HIPAA Security Compliance Assessment addresses Administrative, Physical, and Technical
Safeguards, with primary focus on the HIPAA Security Final Rule governing “protected health information”, as they relate to Progress’ Web Content Management services.

Sitefinity Cloud helps safeguard Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Health Information (PHI) by utilizing field mapping, PII/PHI removal workflows, and data obfuscation during database restore to a non-production environment.

The Sitefinity Cloud HIPAA-compliance report can be downloaded from Progress Security Center.

SAMM

The Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) is an open framework to help organizations formulate and implement a strategy for software security that is tailored to the specific risks facing the organization. SAMM offers a maturity model that enables organizations to assess their software security maturity and identify areas for improvement.

The following regulatory standards are measured by Microsoft Azure against every Progress Sitefinity Cloud subscription:

• PCI DSS 3.2.1
• ISO 27001
• SOC TSP
• Azure CIS 1.1.0
• Azure CIS 1.3.0
• Canada Federal PBMM
• ISO 27001:2013
  
• UKO and UK NHS
  
• NIST SP 800-53 R4
• NIST SP 800 171 R2
• HIPAA HITRUST
• SWIFT CSP CSCF v2020
• New Zealand ISM Restricted
• CMMC Level 3
  

PCI DSS 3.2.1

PCI Security Standards are technical and operational requirements set by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) to protect cardholder data. The standards apply to all entities that store, process or transmit cardholder data – with requirements for software developers and manufacturers of applications and devices used in those transactions. The PCI DSS applies to all entities that store, process, and/or transmit cardholder data. It covers technical and operational system components included in or connected to cardholder data.

SOC TSP

The AICPA Trust Services Categories and Related Criteria are essentially control criteria established by the Assurance Services Executive Committee (ASEC), and consist of Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Furthermore, such control criteria are used for attestation or consulting engagements for evaluating and reporting on controls over the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, or privacy over information and systems (a) across an entire entity; (b) at a subsidiary, division, or operating unit level; (c) within a function relevant to the entity's operational, reporting, or compliance objectives; or (d) for a particular type of information used by the entity.

The Trust Services Criteria relate to the following categories:

• Security
• Availability
• Processing Integrity
• Confidentiality
• Privacy
