Security at Asato
Asato's access to a customer's systems is read-only by default, a person the customer names approves each fix, and customer data never trains any model. Asato lists these certifications: SOC 2 Type 2, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, HITRUST e1, FedRAMP Ready and GDPR. Full reports and the sub-processor list are available from the Asato Trust Center (https://trust.asato.ai) under NDA.

Trust and governance
Section heading on the page: "Read-only by default." The line under it: "Write access where you grant it."
- What Asato reads. Metadata: records about technology, such as licenses, devices, usage, sign-in activity and costs. In those records Asato reads names, owners, versions, entitlements, usage, costs and dates. Contracts and invoices are read only if the customer connects them. Asato reads records about technology and never reads employees' documents, email or messages.
- Access. Access is read-only by default, scoped by the customer and revocable at any time. The customer issues, scopes and revokes every credential. Write access is added one system at a time, where the customer grants it. Nothing is installed on an endpoint. There is no standing human access to customer data.
- Approval. A person the customer names approves each fix, or sets a policy that governs fixes of that kind. Nothing changes until that person approves. Each step is logged. The log holds who approved it, what changed, where and when.
- Training. Customer data never trains any model.
Security practices
Section heading on the page: "Security practices." The line under it: "How Asato protects data, builds the platform and responds." The page sets the practices out in three groups, in these words.
Protecting data
- Encryption. TLS 1.2 or later in transit and AES-256 at rest.
- Tenant isolation. Each tenant is isolated at the data and compute layers, with namespaces, network policies and database scoping.
- Access control. Role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication for all users.
- Service traffic. A service mesh authenticates, encrypts and monitors traffic between internal services, with mutual TLS.
- Backups. Backups are automated.
Building the platform
- Infrastructure as code. Every environment is built with Terraform from one version-controlled blueprint, so security configurations are consistent and deployment is automated.
- Policy as code. Rules such as encryption and network access are enforced automatically, so manual misconfigurations and configuration drift are caught early.
- Code scanning. Code goes through automated static analysis and dependency vulnerability scanning.
- Container images. Images are scanned in the build pipeline and at runtime for vulnerabilities, and base images get security updates.
- Penetration testing. A third party runs a penetration test each year. The May 2026 retest found no critical and no high findings.
Watching and responding
- Monitoring. Monitoring runs 24/7: real-time anomaly detection, behavioral analysis and automated alerts for events such as failed logins and sudden configuration changes.
- Audit logs. Full audit logs record system changes, access events and infrastructure updates.
- Incident response. A 24/7 incident response team follows documented procedures.
- Audits. Security assessments are continuous, and regular internal and external audits validate the controls.
- Training. Every team member takes security training.
The same practices in fuller sentences, for a reader who quotes them:
- Encryption in transit. TLS 1.2 or later protects data in transit. Traffic between Asato's internal services is authenticated and encrypted with mutual TLS (mTLS) by a service mesh.
- Tenant isolation. Each tenant is isolated at the data and compute layers. Asato does this with namespaces, network policies and database scoping, which give network segmentation, data isolation and resource boundaries.
- Infrastructure as code. Asato builds its environments with Terraform. The infrastructure is version-controlled, security configurations are consistent across environments, and deployment is automated.
- Policy as code. Automated compliance checks enforce security policy and detect configuration drift.
- Code and containers. Code is checked by static analysis and dependency vulnerability scanning. Container images are scanned when they are built and while they run, and base images get security updates.
- Monitoring and response. Asato monitors its systems 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Its incident response team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and follows documented procedures.
Where it runs
Section heading on the page: "Where it runs." The line under it: "Processing stays in the agreed region."
- Deployment. Asato runs multi-tenant on Azure, or in a dedicated tenant, a virtual private cloud or on-premises where a review requires it.
- Region. Processing stays in the agreed region.
- Uptime. Asato commits to 99.9% uptime. This is a commitment, not a measurement. This page gives no measured uptime figure.
- Status. The status page shows the state of every system, service and piece of infrastructure in real time: https://status.asato.ai/status/url
Privacy, terms and contact
- Privacy policy. The privacy policy says how Asato collects, uses and protects personal information. Asato collects only the data the service needs. https://www.asato.ai/privacy-policy
- Terms of use. The terms of use govern use of Asato's website and the services provided through it. https://www.asato.ai/terms-of-use

Next step
Closing line on the page: No savings, no fee. Your Asset Clarity Report: a priced list of savings, in one week.
- The Asset Clarity Report is a priced list of what to stop paying for in one area, with the owner of each item. It takes one week and read-only access. If it finds no savings, the customer pays nothing.
