New Experience in Managing SOWs & Contingent
‘Traditional’ vendor management systems mainly focus on common forms of contingent labor like temp workers managed by staffing suppliers or agencies. However 60-70% of the service spend (in value) in enterprises are typically SOW-based services and projects. Incumbent technology hasn’t kept up with the need for a user-friendly way to manage deliverable-, milestone- or unit-based service delivery.

ISMS – No Security Concerns
We build, manage and maintain our application based on an information security management system (ISMS) that has been independently audited and certified according to ISO27001.
The ISMS assures a set of security controls that protect the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of confidential, personal, and sensitive data from being leaked, damaged, destroyed, or exposed to harmful elements.
Secure Architecture: Our tiered architecture provides multiple layers of protection. Each application operates in its own silo, heavily protected from the internet by our front-end load balancers, layer-3 and web application firewalls and intrusion detection systems
Encrytion in Transit and at Rest: Any data that is transferred over the internet uses industry-standard encryption: All traffic in transit uses the latest secure cipher algorithms (TLS 1.2) and we use per customer (AES-256) keys to encryt data on disk
Audit Logging: Every change in the system and all data transfers via API to other systems are logged using latest Amazon Web Services technology like AWS CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail. All log data is stored for at least 14 days
Attribute-based Access Control: Outerscore maintains a fine grained access control using a combination of authentication, authorization, and entitlement mechanisms. We support several authentication options such as Okta, OneLogin, or SecureAuth to provide seamless SSO
Performance and Availability: Our infrastructure-as-code (IaC) approach allows us to restore or launch our entire infrastructure in less than 30 min. Utilizing the leading enterprise business cloud – AWS – allows us to make use of best-in-class cloud hosting security standards
Security Assessments and Tests: We continuous test our application for security flaws and potential vulnerabilities. Every line of code must pass rigorous testing in three different environments before it is deployed to our customers
