ISO 27001

Our entire security program is underpinned by ISO 27001 that is supplemented by multiple organizational, regional and functional security assurance certifications for our environments and our products. 

ISO 27001 is one of the most widely recognized and internationally accepted information security standards. It identifies requirements for a comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS), and defines how organizations should manage and handle information in a secure manner, including appropriate security controls. 

Our entire organization is certified to ISO 27001:2013. In order to achieve the certification, Entrust's compliance was validated by an independent audit firm after demonstrating an ongoing and systematic approach to managing and protecting company and customer data. This certification guarantees that Entrust meets an exacting framework of policies and procedures that includes legal, physical and technical controls involved in an organization’s risk management system. Achieving this certification is an exacting task, considering that it covers no less than 14 specific control objectives: 

  • Information Security Policies 
  • Organization of Information Security 
  • Human Resources Security 
  • Asset Management 
  • Access Control 
  • Cryptography 
  • Physical and Environmental Security 
  • Operations Security 
  • Communications Security
  • Systems acquisition, development and maintenance 
  • Supplier Relationships 
  • Information Security Incident Management 
  • Information Security aspects of Business Continuity Management 
  • Compliance 

Our ISO 27001 certification for Entrust builds on our long-standing compliance with multiple security assurance certifications that are recognized around the globe.

Vulnerability Handling Process

Security vulnerabilities in Entrust Security products are actively managed through our vulnerability management process and covers four stages: 

  1. Reporting: The process begins when the Entrust Product Security Team is made aware of a potential security vulnerability in an existing product. The reporter receives an acknowledgment and updates throughout the handling process. 
  2. Triage: The Entrust Product Security Team investigates the issue and confirms the potential vulnerability, assesses the risk, and determines the impact and assigns a processing priority. The outcome is communicated to the Reporter. 
  3. Resolution: The product engineering team works with the Product Security Team to develop a fix that mitigates the reported vulnerability. 
  4. Disclosure: If the vulnerability is deemed to be of sufficient severity, a product advisory is created to provide all affected customers with information to accurately assess their risk, and informs of possible remediation and workaround advice as well as availability of any patches. Following disclosure, customer questions are handled by the Support Team in the usual manner. 

Entrust's disclosure policy ensures all customers receive the same information at the same time to avoid introducing further risk. 

Entrust also provides software and firmware updates as part of the Support Services offered during the Support Period of the product. 

Entrust will provide, during the Support Period, the following support to customers: 

(i) Use commercially reasonable efforts to investigate and find a resolution to failures reported by customers, and confirmed by Entrust, in accordance with the priority level assigned to the failure by Entrust in its reasonable discretion. 

(ii) Updating of the documentation as and when necessary. 

(iii) The provision of generally available maintenance software and software release notes. 

(iv) The provision, free of charge, during the Support Period, of generally available maintenance updates to the supported versions of the software as and when available.
