Policy Objectives

  1. Safeguard MaisonRMI data, infrastructure, and customer trust.
  2. Provide a repeatable approach for access requests, change management, and incident handling.
  3. Align MaisonRMI technology practices with SOC 2 and GDPR controls.

Key Controls

  • Access Governance
    • Role-based access is provisioned through Okta groups.
    • Privileged accounts require multi-factor authentication and quarterly re-certification.
  • Secure Development Lifecycle
    • All code changes follow pull-request review with automated security scanning.
    • Dependencies are patched within 14 days of a critical CVE release.
  • Device Management
    • Corporate laptops are enrolled in MDM with enforced disk encryption and automatic updates.
    • Lost or stolen devices must be reported to [email protected] within one hour for remote wipe.
  • Vendor Risk Management
    • Vendors are classified high, medium, or low risk. High-risk providers require annual due diligence and data processing agreements.
  • Incident Response
    • Incidents are triaged within 15 minutes during business hours. Severity 1 incidents require executive notification and a post-incident review.
