Too often, there’s a frustrating divide in the tech world that holds back innovation: On one side sit the fast-moving startups developing disruptive tech with transformative potential; on the other side sit large enterprises, hands tied because they cannot deploy tools that don’t comply with relevant security and privacy regulations. Compliance certifications are typically a later-stage target for disruptive tech — requiring a big effort and a sizable investment. 

Oleria’s achievement of PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA, and ISO/IEC 27001, 27017, and 27018 compliance certification — barely a year after our initial GA — bridges that divide. The certifications give enterprise organizations across a wide range of sectors a new level of confidence to deploy Oleria Identity Security as the foundational layer of their modern identity security program.

Investing in enterprise-level compliance to deliver an enterprise-ready solution

Our PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA and ISO certifications — on top of the SOC 2 compliance we achieved last year — signal a bold bet that we made early on at Oleria. We knew our vision to reimagine identity security held the most value for more complex organizations. So, we built Oleria Identity Security as an enterprise-ready solution from Day 1. But we also knew the enterprise-scale capabilities we were building wouldn’t get traction unless they could meet enterprise-level security and compliance requirements.

So, much earlier than the typical startup, we proactively invested in stronger controls that allow us to achieve a range of higher-level security certifications, and give enterprise organizations in high-assurance sectors the confidence they need to trust Oleria to help them strengthen security and compliance. We also invested heavily in automation, enabling us to automate over 100 tests that cover 80% of the required controls — helping us accelerate our compliance timeline to exceed our enterprise customers’ expectations. 

Strong security controls accelerate compliance audits

While the standard start-up approach deploys controls in a limited manner to control costs, we cut no corners in building our back-end security infrastructure. We deployed tools like EDR, cloud security posture management across all devices very early on — and we leverage partner solutions from Wiz, Crowdstrike, Zscaler and Drata, among others, to help us monitor all our environments.

With our collective years of leadership experience in security, we know it’s not often that young startups build the kind of well-defined security posture and policies that allow them to complete these certifications so early.

Enterprise-scale innovation — with trust at the core

Enterprise organizations should not have to choose between security and agile innovation. We’re eager to see how our PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA and ISO certifications will help bring Oleria's radical capabilities to more enterprise organizations. And we’re proud to be ahead of the typical startup timeline in meeting these enterprise-level compliance requirements.

But we’re not slowing down. As we rapidly bring our innovation roadmap to life — developing new features and capabilities to further redefine modern identity security — we’re continuing to keep trust at the core of Oleria’s platform. That means proactively deploying the tools, protocols, and continuous monitoring and validation capabilities to meet the highest cybersecurity standards.

By prioritizing enterprise-level security and compliance, we empower our customers to innovate with confidence, knowing that their sensitive data and critical systems are protected by a robust and reliable identity security foundation.
