Aptible empowers engineering teams to bring products to market faster by implementing and operating all of the rigorous infrastructure security controls required to comply with regulatory frameworks and pass security audits.
The table below highlights the full list of security and availability controls provided by Aptible directly or through our infrastructure provider, AWS.
Protect your Aptible accounts with both token-based 2FA and FIDO U2F security keys.
Access Management provided by Aptible
Reduce access issues and manage access to your Aptible services with simple role-based permissions.
Access Management provided by Aptible
Seamlessly manage your team's access to your Aptible account by enrolling Aptible with your SSO provider.
Access Management provided by Aptible
Aptible aggregates all of your team's activity into a Weekly Activity Report
Auditing provided by Aptible
Aptible log drains capture and route container logs to your logging provider. The Aptible CLI also allows you to stream logs to a local console in real time.
Auditing provided by Aptible
Aptible log drains also capture and route SSH session activity to your logging provider for additional auditing an analysis.
Auditing provided by Aptible
Aptible monitors the underlying EC2 instances in your stacks for potential intrusions, such as unauthorized SSH access, rootkits, file integrity issues, and privilege escalation. The Aptible Security Team responds on your behalf 24/7 to investigate and resolve issues as they arise.
Auditing provided by Aptible
Aptible monitors your VPC for potential network intrusions and proactively responds on your behalf 24/7.
Auditing provided by Aptible
Aptible ensures that the configuration of your environment is hardened to avoid unintentional or unapproved configuration changes.
Auditing provided by Aptible
The Aptible SRE Team monitors your infrastructure 24/7 and responds to host and network incidents on your behalf.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible containers that exit unexpectedly are restarted in pristine condition, ensuring uptime even if your app crashes.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible VPC-based approach means that most stack components are not accessible from the Internet, and cannot be targeted directly by a DDoS attack. Aptible SSL/TLS endpoints include an AWS Elastic Load Balancer, which only supports valid TCP requests, meaning DDoS attacks such as UDP and SYN floods will not reach your app layer.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible automatically deploys horizontally-scaled app and database containers across separate AWS Availability Zones, to ensure high availability.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible simplifies replication (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis) and clustering (MongoDB) databases in high-availability setups.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible takes automatic daily backups of your databases, and distributes those backups across geographically separate regions.
Availability provided by Aptible
Database backups are frequently tested to ensure restoration viability.
Availability provided by Aptible
Aptible automatically performs zero downtime rolling deployments when you release your app.
Availability provided by Aptible
Database volumes are encrypted at rest using AES-256 with Aptible-managed keys.
Encryption provided by Aptible
Traffic is encrypted all the way from your endpoints to your app and database containers using strong TLS ciphers.
Encryption provided by Aptible
Aptible endpoints can automatically redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
Encryption provided by Aptible
Aptible ensures that insecure versions of TLS and weak TLS cipher suites are never used on your TLS endpoints.
Encryption provided by Aptible
Protect internal tools or admin panels by restricting access to your application to an IP allow-list
Network Protection provided by Aptible
For databases with an external endpoint, Aptible allows you to restrict access to a set of allow-listed IP addresses or networks, and block all other incoming traffic.
Network Protection provided by Aptible
Your infrastructure on Aptible is isolated to its own private VPC and is not directly accessible by the Internet.
Network Protection provided by Aptible
Network access to public-facing EC2 instances is configured via Security Group rules that are reviewed and enforced by the Aptible Security Team on a regular basis.
Network Protection provided by Aptible
The Aptible Platform proactively scans your Docker images for vulnerable system packages and alerts you of any addressable vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability Management provided by Aptible
Aptible host operating systems are hardened to disable unnecessary services and limit surface area for attacks.
Vulnerability Management provided by Aptible
The Aptible Security Team patches kernel vulnerabilities and other host- and network-level issues on your behalf.
Vulnerability Management provided by Aptible
Aptible uses a custom version of the Xen hypervisor that limits guest OS privileges. AWS is responsible for patching and maintenance of the hypervisor.
Infrastructure Security provided by AWS
AWS monitors for unauthorized port scanning activity and blocks it when detected.
Infrastructure Security provided by AWS
Aptible stacks benefit from AWS Shield Standard, a managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service that defends against most common, frequently occuring network and transport layer DDoS attacks that target your web site or applications.
Infrastructure Security provided by AWS
The AWS hypervisor only delivers traffic to the EC2 instances that the traffic is addres to, preventing sniffing. AWS's host-based firewalls do not permit instances to send traffic with a source IP or MAC address other than their own.
Infrastructure Security provided by AWS
Aptible runs on AWS, which provides robust, ISO 27001 certified physical and environmental security for data centers.
Infrastructure Security provided by AWS
You are responsible for implementing security controls in your app business logic, such as authentication, app-level access controls, and audit logging.
You are responsible for detecting and mitigating vulnerabilities in your Aptible apps.
You are responsible for managing your apps' dependencies (e.g. package.json, Gemfiles, etc.) and patching vulnerabilities. You may use Aptible App Security Scans to detect potential issues with system packages installed in your Docker images.
You are responsible for managing your passwords, API keys, and other secrets. You may use Aptible environment variables to store sensitive information and configuration.
