This question is mainly for Anvil staff, I think.
A potential client has a number of specific data security related queries. E.g. disaster recovery, pen testing and intrusion detection etc. Please could you point me in the right direction to any docs relating to this?
Thanks,
Raj

Hi, We are collaborating with a third party and the client needs the following questions about data security answered. I’m really sorry it’s rather long but it forms part of the contract
