Security and compliance for offshore teams: your data stays under your control
Security is designed into how we staff and deliver, from the contract to the last day of an engagement. Our practices are designed to align with SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA requirements.
Quick answer
How do offshore teams keep client data secure?
Secure offshore teams work inside the client's controlled environment through SSO, VPN or virtual desktops, with least-privilege access, MFA and same-day access removal when someone leaves. Contracts include NDAs and IP assignment, non-production environments use masked data, and practices are aligned with SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA requirements.

Compliance
How our practices map to SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA
Our delivery practices are designed to align with the controls these frameworks expect: access control and least privilege, change management, logging, encryption, vendor and personnel security, and incident response. We work inside your compliance program and follow your policies, evidence requests and audit timelines.
For regulated data, engineers work only in environments you control, with masked or synthetic data outside production. Our healthcare work includes a HIPAA-compliant data platform validated by a third-party audit; see our case studies.
What we provide for your audits
- Named list of people with access and their roles
- Access grant and removal records
- Signed NDAs and IP assignment
- Change and incident records for our work
- Answers to your vendor security questionnaire

FAQ
Questions buyers ask us
Is NTech SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified?
Our practices are designed to align with SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA requirements, and we work within your own compliance program. Ask us for current details during your vendor review.
Do offshore engineers get access to production data?
Only when your policy allows it and the role requires it. By default engineers use masked or synthetic data outside production and least-privilege access through your own systems.
What happens to access when an engineer leaves?
Access to your systems is removed the same day, and the removal is recorded for your audit trail.
