🛡️ CIA Compliance Manager — ISMS Implementation Guide

Demonstrating Security Excellence Through Transparent ISMS Compliance
A Compliance Tool Built with Compliance in Mind

Owner Version Effective Date Review Cycle

Document Owner: Security Team | Version: 1.0 | Last Updated: 2025-01-10 (UTC)
Review Cycle: Quarterly | Next Review: 2026-07-28

🎯 Purpose Statement

The CIA Compliance Manager ISMS Implementation Guide demonstrates how this compliance assessment tool practices what it preaches by implementing the same Hack23 AB Information Security Management System (ISMS) controls it helps customers evaluate.

Our approach to tool development exemplifies cybersecurity consulting excellence through systematic security control implementation, comprehensive testing strategies, and transparent documentation. This guide serves as proof that CIA Compliance Manager is not just a theoretical assessment tool—it's a reference implementation of secure software development practices.

By documenting our own ISMS compliance, we demonstrate to customers and stakeholders that Hack23 AB builds security into every aspect of software development, creating trust through transparency and measurable evidence of security maturity.

🔑 Access Control & Authentication

📋 ISMS Policy: Access Control Policy

Application Access Control

CIA Compliance Manager is a client-side application with no backend authentication system, which simplifies the security model while maintaining appropriate controls.

🎯 Control Area 🛡️ Implementation 📋 Compliance
📦 Source Code Access GitHub repository permissions with role-based access ✅ Least Privilege
🔒 CI/CD Pipeline GitHub Actions with OIDC tokens, no long-lived secrets ✅ Secure Automation
🚀 Deployment GitHub Pages with automated deployment from main branch ✅ Controlled Release
🔐 Secrets Management No application secrets (client-side only), GitHub Secrets for CI/CD ✅ Secure Storage
👥 User Access Public access for read, controlled write access via GitHub permissions ✅ Appropriate Access

Repository Access Matrix

👤 Role 📖 Read ✏️ Write 🚀 Deploy 🔒 Admin
Public ✅ ❌ ❌ ❌
Contributors ✅ ✅ (via PR) ❌ ❌
Maintainers ✅ ✅ ✅ ❌
Admins ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅

Authentication Evidence

  • Repository Settings: Branch protection rules requiring reviews
  • GitHub Actions: OIDC authentication for deployment
  • No Application Secrets: Client-side architecture eliminates authentication attack surface
