Quarterly restore drills

Operating, reviewed on its stated cadence

Backup restore drills run quarterly with dated records. A scheduled off-site artifact was decrypted with the offline key and restored end-to-end into a scratch database, reconciled against production — while recovery time remains honestly unmeasured.

Standards mappings

This control maps to the following standards and frameworks. Each entry states our real relationship with the standard, and the specific requirements this control helps satisfy.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022InfoSec complianceSelf-assessed

A full 93-control Annex A Statement of Applicability is maintained and honestly dispositioned, and the ISMS went live on 26 July 2026 with its first completed management review. Not certified: no external audit has occurred, the clause 9.2 internal audit is openly unmet, and the certification trigger (a named tender, funding, or first hire) was formally decided at the first management review.

  • A.5.29Security during disruption
  • A.5.30ICT readiness for business continuity

Everything mapped to this standard

SOC 2 (AICPA Trust Services Criteria)InfoSec complianceAligned

Controls are explicitly mapped to the criteria — change management to CC8, logging and monitoring to CC7, access control to CC6 — but no SOC 2 attestation of any type exists. Independent attestation is a tracked roadmap item, offered as a contractual milestone for a pilot.

  • CC7.4Incident response and recovery

Everything mapped to this standard

HECVAT (Higher Education Community Vendor Assessment Toolkit)Higher educationSelf-assessed

A full HECVAT answer pack is maintained and kept current for university procurement, deliberately honest about gaps (no SOC 2 or ISO attestation, no independent penetration test, PITR not enabled). It is a vendor self-assessment, not an externally validated response, backed by a full internal HECVAT-aligned self-audit.

  • BCPBackup and restore capability

Everything mapped to this standard
