Shared Responsibility Model

Cloudways believes that being a transparent security partner is essential to building customer trust. We’re here to support you on your journey to securing your product and protecting your customers’ data.

The Shared Responsibility Model (SRM) is a framework that delineates responsibilities between Cloudways and the customer in securing your product. Cloudways is a managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) provider, which means we are responsible for the security of the platform (e.g., OS patching, firmware, and the technology stack), while customers are responsible for security within the platform. This includes, but is not limited to, application updates, credential management, and data compliance.

The following graphic illustrates the separation of responsibilities between Cloudways and the customer:
