The audit covers access controls, continuous infrastructure monitoring and incident response, employee background checks and security training, and secure software development for the platform, which lets AI agents write, review, and maintain production code.

As the Security & Compliance lead at Tessl, I want to share what this means for you and how we'll keep raising the bar as we grow.\n\nVisit the [Tessl Trust Center](https://trust.tessl.io/) to view our security documentation and request our SOC 2 report.\n\n**Why SOC 2 Now?**\n\nTessl is built to let AI agents write, review, and maintain production code alongside your team. That only works if you can trust the platform with your codebase from day one. As enterprise teams bring Tessl into their software factories, independent verification of our security posture stopped being optional.\n\n**What's in the Report?**\n\nThe report, conducted by an independent auditor (A-Lign), covers the controls we run day to day to protect your data:\n\n- **Strict access controls.** Access to customer data is limited to those who need it, with regular reviews to keep those controls tight as we scale.\n- **Continuous monitoring and incident response.** We monitor our infrastructure and cloud configuration continuously, with automated alerting and a defined incident response process, so issues get caught and handled fast.\n- **Employee security awareness.** Every employee goes through background checks before joining and ongoing security training after, so security stays part of how the team operates, not a once-a-year exercise.\n- **Secure software development.** Every new repository is brought into scope for our security controls by default, with code review and vulnerability scanning built into the development process itself, agents included.\n\n**Ongoing Efforts**\n\nSOC 2 is one part of a broader program. We're now working toward ISO 27001 certification, with our internal audit starting this month and external audit in November.\n\nIf you're a Tessl customer or considering Tessl for your team, visit our [Trust Center](https://trust.tessl.io/) to request the full SOC 2 Type II report, or [talk to our team](https://tessl.io/contact) about your security requirements.\n\nCOPY & SHARE\n\nRichard Tweed\n\nRichard Tweed is the security, compliance and infrastructure person at Tessl.
