January 2022 Summaries

Bricks Software AS emphasizes robust security and compliance measures to protect data and services, ensuring secure access to the digital world. The company follows strict protocols, including background checks and NDAs for personnel, secure development lifecycles aligned with OWASP Top 10 recommendations, and regular employee training. Their security strategy includes third-party penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, and both static and dynamic software testing. In their cloud-based Unleash offering, Bricks Software AS ensures customer data isolation, encryption, and continuous monitoring, adhering to SOC 2 standards. Compliance is further validated through external audits, such as the SOC 2 Type I audit by Prescient Assurance, which affirms their commitment to high security and compliance standards.

Unleash 4.6 introduces custom project roles for Enterprise customers, enhancing the role-based access control (RBAC) capabilities by allowing more granular permissions beyond the existing owner and member roles. This update addresses the need for finer control in managing access to project-specific resources and environments, particularly with the added complexity introduced by native environment support. Custom project roles provide two levels of permissions—project and environment—enabling users to define specific actions such as creating or updating feature flags and managing project settings. These distinct permissions offer organizations improved flexibility and control, empowering them to tailor access according to their unique use cases and security requirements.
