Recent progress

Since the April 2026 initial audit, the following findings moved to remediated or code-closed:

Overall maturity

47 / 100 — Level 2: Repeatable Technical Controls

Denialbase has built a technically strong security foundation — field-level encryption, CMEK key management, VPC-isolated infrastructure, HIPAA audit logging, multi-factor authentication, and an automated CI/CD security pipeline.However, this evidence is almost entirely technical and code-level. ISO 27001 certification requires a documented, operational ISMS with risk registers, policies, governance records, supplier agreements (BAAs), internal audits, and management reviews — none of which are evidenced today.With focused governance and documentation effort, our estimated gap to audit-readiness is 6–9 months.

By category

Findings at a glance

Primary strengths

CMEK everywhere

Customer-managed encryption keys on Cloud SQL, GCS, Redis, and Terraform state — with 90-day automatic rotation.

Pundit + HIPAA audit

48 policy files with globally enforced object-level authorization. Every PHI action is audit-logged with 7-year retention.

WIF + Cloud Armor

Workload Identity Federation means zero long-lived CI/CD keys. Cloud Armor enforces OWASP CRS v3.3 at the edge.

Hardened auth

MFA, passkeys, account lockout, 12-char password policy, rate limiting on every sensitive endpoint.

Open gaps

No BAAs signed

GCP, Anthropic, Sentry, SES. Targeted for Q3 2026.

No Incident Response Plan exercised

Formal IRP documented; tabletop exercise targeted for Q2 2026.

No DR test evidence

Runbook documented; first drill targeted for Q2 2026.

No penetration testing

First third-party pentest targeted for Q3 2026.

Org policies — prod pending

Live in staging since April 19, 2026. Prod promotion targeted after 1–2 week staging soak.

Remediated since the initial audit

PHI column encryption

Code closed — backfill tasks for OverturnableDenial + ProviderPatientLink shipped in PR #78. Staging backfill scheduled.

JWT rotation mechanism

Closedjwt.rotation_secret wired in PR #76; dual-secret verification covered by specs.

Formal security policies

Published — ISP, AUP, risk register v1.0 + 9 supporting policies. Pending CEO sign-off.

Statement of Applicability

Published — 93 of 97 ISO 27001:2022 Annex A controls mapped with per-control status and evidence.

What this is, and isn’t

This snapshot is based on a structured review of source code, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD definitions, documentation, and configuration files. It is not an audit opinion. No live production systems, GCP consoles, runtime logs, or access review artifacts were directly inspected. All findings reflect evidence observable in the code repository as of April 2026.
