Security
Security Architecture
Harch Corp security is designed from the ground up — not bolted on. Every component, from physical data center perimeters to application code, is built with defense in depth and zero-trust principles.
Infrastructure
Physical & Network Security
Our data centers are sovereign fortresses — physically secured, network-isolated, and continuously monitored. Every byte that enters or leaves is inspected.
Physical Security
Access Control
Multi-factor biometric authentication (fingerprint + iris + badge). Mantrap entry points with interlocking doors. Visitor escort required at all times.
Surveillance
24/7 CCTV with 90-day retention. AI-powered anomaly detection on all camera feeds. No blind spots in data halls.
Environmental
N+1 cooling redundancy. Fire suppression with VESDA early warning. Seismic-rated construction for all critical facilities.
Personnel
Background-checked security staff 24/7. Regular physical penetration testing. Strict tailgating prevention policies.
Network Security
DDoS Protection
Multi-layer DDoS mitigation with 10Tbps+ scrubbing capacity. Always-on protection with automatic traffic rerouting during volumetric attacks.
Micro-Segmentation
Zero-trust network architecture. Every workload isolated in its own security zone. East-west traffic encrypted and authenticated.
WAF & API Gateway
Next-gen WAF with ML-powered threat detection. API gateway with rate limiting, schema validation, and bot protection.
Submarine Cable Security
Dedicated fiber paths with tamper detection. Encrypted point-to-point links between Morocco and EU landing stations.
Application
Secure by Default
Every line of code is reviewed, every dependency is scanned, every deployment is tested. Security is not a phase — it is a continuous practice embedded in our development lifecycle.
Code Review & SAST
Every merge request requires security review. Static analysis (SAST) scans for vulnerabilities, secrets, and misconfigurations before code reaches production. Zero-trust in the CI/CD pipeline.
Penetration Testing
Annual third-party penetration testing by NCC Group, plus continuous automated DAST scanning. Bug bounty program supplements with real-world attack simulation by ethical hackers.
Vulnerability Management
Continuous vulnerability scanning of all infrastructure and applications. Risk-based prioritization with automated patching for critical CVEs within 24 hours of disclosure.
Data
Encryption Everywhere
Data is encrypted at every stage — at rest, in transit, and during processing. Customer-managed keys give you full control over your encryption boundaries.
Encryption at Rest
Encryption in Transit
Identity & Access
Zero-Trust Identity
Never trust, always verify. Every access request is authenticated, authorized, and encrypted — regardless of origin. Identity is the new perimeter.
Multi-Factor Authentication
MFA enforced for all users — no exceptions. Support for TOTP, WebAuthn/FIDO2, hardware keys, and push notifications. Phishing-resistant authentication options available.
Role-Based Access Control
Fine-grained RBAC with least-privilege defaults. Custom roles for complex organizational structures. Just-in-time access provisioning with automatic expiration.
Privileged Access Management
All privileged sessions recorded and audited. Just-in-time elevation with approval workflows. Automated credential rotation for service accounts.
Conditional Access Policies
Context-aware access decisions based on device posture, location, risk score, and time of access. Automatic step-up authentication for high-risk operations.
Single Sign-On (SSO)
SAML 2.0 and OIDC integration with all major identity providers. SCIM-based user provisioning and deprovisioning. Session management across all Harch Corp services.
Audit & Compliance
Every authentication and authorization event logged immutably. Real-time alerting on suspicious access patterns. Quarterly access reviews with automated deprovisioning.
Bulletins
Security Bulletins
Transparent disclosure of security updates, patches, and vulnerability remediations. We publish every relevant security event — not just the ones that make us look good.

Incident Response
Rapid. Structured. Transparent.
Our incident response process is designed for speed and accountability. Every phase has defined SLAs, clear ownership, and mandatory documentation.
Detection
Automated detection via SIEM, IDS/IPS, and anomaly detection. 24/7 SOC monitoring with real-time alerting.
Triage
Security analyst validates the alert, assigns severity, and activates the appropriate incident response playbook.
Containment
Immediate containment actions to prevent spread. Short-term and long-term containment strategies deployed in parallel.
Eradication
Root cause identification and complete removal of threat actor presence. All compromised assets identified and remediated.
Recovery
Services restored with enhanced monitoring. Validation testing confirms threat elimination and service integrity.
Post-Incident
Comprehensive post-incident review. Lessons learned documented and shared. Controls updated to prevent recurrence.
