  • Patent number: 11003563
    Abstract: A compliance user or auditor is enabled to inject failures into a sandbox environment, which may be similar to a production service. The sandbox environment may be monitored by the same automation that watches compliance controls in the production service. As the user injects compliance failures into the sandbox, they may detect the appropriate alerts fire in the monitoring system, thereby gaining trust that the monitoring works as it should. A rich report resulting from the test activities may allow the user or auditor to see how a failure of a compliance control leads to the expected monitoring alert.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 12, 2019
    Date of Patent: May 11, 2021

  • Patent number: 9672349
    Abstract: A cloud service system may activate features or functionality based on agreement of at least two parties such as a system administrator and a compliance officer to mitigate compliance, security, or privacy impact on the service. The controllers may make the “enable feature” decision independently, but still have equal say in the outcome. In some examples, pre-established profiles may be provided to a controller such as a compliance officer to make decisions by selection on his/her behalf at a particular level of risk acceptance and/or to meet a particular regulatory standard/certification.
