Tidepool employees with critical production access

Access to servers is limited, logged and audited and defined explicitly using Role Based Access Control (RBAC).

Employees accessing our production database or applications authenticate using two-factor authentication.

  • We do not allow SSH or RDP access (or any other direct access to production systems, including database).

  • All connectivity to backend systems takes place within an AWS VPC over authenticated private network connections.

  • Admin and support access roles:

    • RBAC via OpenID Connect and OAuth2 (Google SSO)

    • All admin actions occur via an API gateway over TLS with full auditing/logging

    • All access for monitoring and troubleshooting takes place over API, there is no back end root account.

    • All Application Security access changes are documented and approved via source code control

  • All login access to the AWS console requires two-factor authentication using a separated account (non-domain).

  • Use of access keys for service accounts is minimized via the use of IAM roles., with regular review and key rotation
