You may have other SLA terms in the Agreement.
Extended Service Level Agreement for the Latest Threats
If you purchased the 24-Hour SLA add-on for the latest threats, you may be entitled to the special terms described in this Section. Otherwise, a 24-hour or longer wait time on content code access from its release date will be granted, according to the applicable Agreement.
We provide the Content for the detection of suspicious activity related to the most dangerous Exploitable Critical Vulnerabilities selected by SOC Prime, within a 24-hours period (“Content SLA Period”).
For the purposes of the Terms, Exploitable Critical Vulnerability means critical weakness in an information system that can be exploited or triggered by a threat source, and information about such exploits and/or triggers is publicly available and assessed as described below (all three criteria below should be met):
- information about the Exploitable Critical Vulnerability becomes publicly available, identified, and categorized with Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE®) methodology, its CVE record published by respective CVE Numbering Authorities according to the MITRE Corporation rules and practices;
- criticality level of the Exploitable Critical Vulnerability is assessed and received the following scores on at least one of the following sources indicated below:
- Microsoft Security Update: Publicly Disclosed=yes, Exploited=yes, CVSS:3 >= 9, according to methodology published at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability;
- VulnDB: Exploitability must exist and CTI Interest Score >= 9 and CVSS:3 >= 9 as published at https://vuldb.com/?ct.
- results of exploitation of respective Exploitable Critical Vulnerability must be traceable (i.e. present in log files: event logs, security logs, audit trails, audit logs and similar records).
SOC Prime will be proactively monitoring and developing Content that addresses certain Exploitable Critical Vulnerabilities, which, in our opinion, constitute the biggest threat. For this purpose, we monitor the sources mentioned in the Exploitable Critical Vulnerability definition and focus on the widely used software (e.g. most common Linux platforms, Microsoft Windows, software with a proven base of users of at least 1 million). We will do our best to address vulnerabilities in legacy and niche software as well, however, such software will not be covered by this section of the Terms. SOC Prime will determine at its sole discretion what software we focus our efforts on and what Exploitable Critical Vulnerabilities will be selected for the Content SLA Period.
Content SLA Period for Exploitable Critical Vulnerability selected by SOC Prime will be calculated from the moment of publication of the information about such Exploitable Critical Vulnerability on the websites indicated above.
The content will be considered as provided to you from the moment it is published on the SOC Prime Platform.
Right to Audit and other Requests
You agree to keep accurate records containing all the data (including technical data and logs about the distribution or use of Content for any third party) reasonably required to verify your compliance with these Terms or Agreement. Such records will be retained for a period of at least 3 years following the end of your Subscription term. Upon receipt of written notice (which may be sent at least 3 days in advance), you will permit the auditing and copying of such records by our representatives or a mutually acceptable third party. In addition, you will respond to reasonable inquiries SOC Prime regarding your use of the Service and/or the Content.
