Secured by Aptible
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.
Provided by Aptible
Multi-factor Authentication
Protect your Aptible accounts with both token-based 2FA and FIDO U2F security keys.
Access ManagementProvided by AptibleCentralized Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Reduce access issues and manage access to your Aptible services with simple role-based permissions.
Access ManagementProvided by AptibleLog in With Single Sign-on
Seamlessly manage your team's access to your Aptible account by enrolling Aptible with your SSO provider.
Access ManagementProvided by AptiblePlatform Activity Logging
Aptible aggregates all of your team's activity into a Weekly Activity Report
AuditingProvided by AptibleCentralized Container Logging
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.
AuditingProvided by AptibleSSH Session Logging
Aptible log drains also capture and route SSH session activity to your logging provider for additional auditing an analysis.
AuditingProvided by AptibleHost Intrusion Detection
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.
AuditingProvided by AptibleNetwork Intrusion Detection
Aptible monitors your VPC for potential network intrusions and proactively responds on your behalf 24/7.
AuditingProvided by AptibleDrift Detection
Aptible ensures that the configuration of your environment is hardened to avoid unintentional or unapproved configuration changes.
AuditingProvided by Aptible24/7 Site Reliability and Incident Response
The Aptible SRE Team monitors your infrastructure 24/7 and responds to host and network incidents on your behalf.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleAutomatic Container Recovery
Aptible containers that exit unexpectedly are restarted in pristine condition, ensuring uptime even if your app crashes.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleDDos Protection
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.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleHigh-availability (HA) App Deployment
Aptible automatically deploys horizontally-scaled app and database containers across separate AWS Availability Zones, to ensure high availability.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleDatabase Replication and Clustering
Aptible simplifies replication (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis) and clustering (MongoDB) databases in high-availability setups.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleAutomatic Cross-Region Backups
Aptible takes automatic daily backups of your databases, and distributes those backups across geographically separate regions.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleAutomated Backup Testing
Database backups are frequently tested to ensure restoration viability.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleZero-downtime Deployments
Aptible automatically performs zero downtime rolling deployments when you release your app.
AvailabilityProvided by AptibleDatabase Encryption at Rest
Database volumes are encrypted at rest using AES-256 with Aptible-managed keys.
EncryptionProvided by AptibleEnd-to-end Encryption in transit
Traffic is encrypted all the way from your endpoints to your app and database containers using strong TLS ciphers.
EncryptionProvided by AptibleForced TLS/HTTPS
Aptible endpoints can automatically redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
EncryptionProvided by AptibleStandards-compliant TLS Configuration
Aptible ensures that insecure versions of TLS and weak TLS cipher suites are never used on your TLS endpoints.
EncryptionProvided by AptibleApplication Endpoint Filtering
Protect internal tools or admin panels by restricting access to your application to an IP allow-list
Network ProtectionProvided by AptibleDatabase Endpoint Filtering
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 ProtectionProvided by AptibleNetwork Segregation
Your infrastructure on Aptible is isolated to its own private VPC and is not directly accessible by the Internet.
Network ProtectionProvided by AptibleSecure Network Architecture
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 ProtectionProvided by AptibleDocker Image Vulnerability Scanning
The Aptible Platform proactively scans your Docker images for vulnerable system packages and alerts you of any addressable vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability ManagementProvided by AptibleHost Hardening
Aptible host operating systems are hardened to disable unnecessary services and limit surface area for attacks.
Vulnerability ManagementProvided by AptibleKernel Vulnerability Management
The Aptible Security Team patches kernel vulnerabilities and other host- and network-level issues on your behalf.
Vulnerability ManagementProvided by AptibleProvided by AWS
Hypervisor Security
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 SecurityProvided by AWSPort Scanning Protection
AWS monitors for unauthorized port scanning activity and blocks it when detected.
Infrastructure SecurityProvided by AWSAWS Shield DDoS Protection
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 SecurityProvided by AWSSpoofing and Sniffing Protection
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 SecurityProvided by AWSPhysical and Environmental Controls
Aptible runs on AWS, which provides robust, ISO 27001 certified physical and environmental security for data centers.
Infrastructure SecurityProvided by AWSThat leaves just 4 steps for your engineering team...
Application-level Controls
You are responsible for implementing security controls in your app business logic, such as authentication, app-level access controls, and audit logging.
Web App Vulnerability Scanning and Patching
You are responsible for detecting and mitigating vulnerabilities in your Aptible apps.
Web App Dependency Management
You are responsible for managing your apps' dependencies and patching vulnerabilities. You may use Aptible App Security Scans to detect potential issues with system packages installed in your Docker images.
Protection of Credentials, Tokens, Secrets
You are responsible for implementing security controls in your app business logic, such as authentication, app-level access controls, and audit logging.
Security and Compliance as a Differentiator
