Security
How to report a vulnerability, what we commit to in return, and the posture we hold our own infrastructure to.

Reporting a vulnerability
Email sachin.rana@ideaxa.io with SECURITY in the subject line. Include the affected host or URL, the steps to reproduce, and what you were able to achieve. A proof of concept helps. Please do not open a public issue or post the details before we have responded.
What we commit to
- Acknowledgement within one business day, from a named person rather than a ticket robot.
- An assessment within five business days, including our severity rating and whether we agree with yours.
- A fix timeline in writing, and an update when it ships.
- Credit where you want it. We will name you in the fix note, or keep you anonymous, whichever you prefer.
We do not run a paid bounty programme. We will not take legal action against good-faith research that follows the scope below.
Scope
In scope:
- This website and anything under the https://ideaxa.io domain.
- The public MQTT broker, OPC-UA reference server, and WebSocket bridge described on the status page.
Out of scope, and please do not attempt:
- Denial of service, volumetric testing, or anything that degrades the public broker for other developers.
- Social engineering of our staff, our clients, or our suppliers.
- Client systems we operate under contract. Those have their own disclosure channels — ask us and we will route you.
- Findings that are purely informational, such as a missing header on a page with no session, absent a demonstrated impact.
This website’s attack surface
The site is a static export served by nginx. There is no application server, no database, no session, and no authentication. It sets no cookies and runs no third-party scripts. The only outbound request the browser makes to another origin is the form submission to Formspree, and only when you submit one.
Our own posture
- SOC 2 Type II readiness, GDPR-compliant data handling, and an ISO 27001-aligned ISMS for internal operations.
- An annual third-party penetration test of our own infrastructure.
- Short-lived cloud credentials, OIDC from CI, and no long-lived static keys.
- Every engineer signs an NDA, an IP-assignment agreement, and the firm’s security policy before touching a client repository.
- Client data is never used for training, never shared with third parties, and never leaves the contracted region.
Asking us for evidence
If you are a client or a prospective client and your security review needs our policies, pentest summary, or a completed questionnaire, email sachin.rana@ideaxa.io. We turn these around rather than making you chase them.
