Empuls secures its applications through SonarQube-powered SAST and third-party DAST testing aligned with OWASP Top 10, backed by an ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified ISMS with defined incident response SLAs for every severity level.
Application Security Testing
Empuls performs Static Application Security Testing (SAST) using SonarQube across selected code repositories, catching vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle before they reach production. For dynamic coverage, Empuls conducts third-party Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) aligned with the OWASP Top 10 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requirements. All findings from both testing tracks are analyzed, prioritized, and remediated as part of a formal Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) process.Security Operations and Continuous Monitoring
Empuls maintains an in-house information security team that monitors and responds to security events in real time. SentinelOne Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is deployed across all endpoints to enable continuous log monitoring, automated threat detection, and rapid incident alerting. A dedicated 24x7x365 Security Operations Center (SOC) is currently being implemented to formalize round-the-clock coverage under ISO/IEC 27001:2022 controls. For organizations using integrated workplace tools such as Slack or Microsoft Teams, Empuls routes security incident notifications through agreed communication channels, ensuring all events are logged, assigned, tracked, and closed in accordance with defined workflows.Incident Response SLAs
Empuls adheres to clearly defined incident management SLAs governing detection, response, and resolution times based on severity:| Priority | Descriptor | Time to Detect & Respond | Time to Resolution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Critical | 1 hour | 4 hours |
| 2 | High | 1 hour | 24–48 hours |
| 3 | Medium | 2–4 hours | 1–3 business days |
| 4 | Low | 1 business day | 1 business week |
