Security Program Overview

Copia Automation is dedicated to providing best-in-class security for our customers. We understand that the files stored with us represents important IP, oftentimes critical infrastructure or production processes. As such, we utilize a secure-by-design methodology to create a strong foundation that's reinforced with defense in depth. For questions or security concerns, please engage [email protected]

Here are some highlights of our security program: 

  • Compliance. We are SOC 2, Type 2 and SOC 3 compliant. 
  • Access Controls. We offer our clients the ability to use Single Sign-On (SSO) and/or Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). 
  • Encryption. We encrypt all data-at-rest and data-in-transit, as well as backups, by leveraging AWS's cloud solutions. 
  • Backup & Recovery. Copia's designed to consistency achieve 99.7% availability with a 1 hour Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO). Backups are testing on an annual basis. 
  • Auditing. We have Security Information & Event Management (SIEM) to monitor logs from various Copia systems to detect suspicious activity and enable timely response. 
  • Third-Party Penetration Testing. We perform annual third-party penetration testing on our web applications and API endpoints.
