Security Objectives

Confidentiality: information is accessible only to authorized parties.
Integrity: information and systems remain accurate, complete, and traceable.
Availability: critical services can operate and recover within approved priorities.
Privacy: personal data is processed under documented lifecycle controls.
Accountability: owners, approvals, actions, exceptions, and evidence are recorded.
Compliance: applicable legal, contractual, and partner obligations are addressed.

Accountability

Management: Approves the framework, resources, priorities, material risk acceptance, and accountability.

IT and Operations: Owns security policies, baseline controls, monitoring, access governance, evidence, and operational response.

Engineering and Service Owners: Protect systems and data throughout design, development, release, operation, change, and retirement.

Privacy and Business Owners: Define approved processing purpose, obligations, data handling, customer commitments, and escalation needs.

Personnel and Contractors: Follow policies, use approved systems, protect credentials, complete required training, and report concerns promptly.

SECTION 2 | RISK AND INFORMATION

Risk, Assets, and Data Protection

Risk Management

Identify threats, vulnerabilities, likelihood, impact, owners, and existing controls.
Prioritize treatment according to exposure, criticality, data sensitivity, and business impact.
Track mitigation, acceptance, avoidance, or transfer decisions to closure.
Material exceptions require an owner, compensating controls, approval, and expiry.

Asset Management

Maintain accountable ownership for material systems, data stores, services, devices, and dependencies.
Apply approved configuration, patching, access, monitoring, backup, and retirement requirements.
Remove access and securely handle information when assets or services are retired.
Review material inventory and coverage gaps periodically and upon change.

Data Protection

Classify information according to confidentiality, integrity, availability, privacy, and contractual impact.
Collect, access, share, retain, and export only what an approved purpose requires.
Use secure transport and encryption at rest for covered sensitive records.
Delete or de-identify information when authorized purpose and required retention end.

Information Handling Baseline

Class, Typical Scope, and Minimum Handling

Public: Approved for public disclosure. Minimum handling: integrity and publication approval; no confidential content.

Internal: Routine business information for authorized personnel. Minimum handling: authenticated access; approved collaboration and storage.

Confidential: Customer, commercial, operational, security, or restricted business data. Minimum handling: need-to-know access, controlled sharing, secure transport and storage.

Restricted: Credentials, authorization tokens, sensitive personal data, secrets, and high-impact security records. Minimum handling: strong encryption, least privilege, MFA where applicable, logging, and tightly controlled export.

SECTION 3 | PREVENTIVE CONTROLS

Identity, Infrastructure, and Endpoint Security

Identity and Access

Unique accounts, role-based authorization, least privilege, and need-to-know access.
MFA for privileged cloud administration and other supported high-risk access.
Manager or owner approval, periodic access review, and prompt revocation on role change or termination.
Emergency access is exceptional, attributable, time limited, and reviewed after use.
Credentials, tokens, and secrets must not be shared or stored in ordinary documents or code.

Network and Cloud

Private network segmentation and restrictive ingress for internal services and data stores.
Only approved internet-facing services are exposed; unnecessary ports and broad rules are prohibited.
Administrative paths use authenticated, authorized, and monitored access controls.
Cloud resources follow approved ownership, configuration, logging, monitoring, and change practices.
Security-sensitive topology and identifiers are disclosed only on a need-to-know basis.

Endpoint and Workplace

Company endpoints use supported protection, security updates, screen locking, and approved software.
Anti-malware and host-security controls remain enabled where supported.
Personnel protect devices from unauthorized physical access and report loss or compromise promptly.
Sensitive data must not be copied to unapproved devices, removable media, or personal storage.
Remote work follows the same confidentiality, access, and device-security baseline.

Cryptography and Secrets

Official TikTok Shop API exchanges use HTTPS protected by TLS 1.2 or higher.
Persisted authorization tokens and invitation records are encrypted at rest.
Keys and secrets are separated from protected data and restricted to approved services or personnel.
Sensitive values are excluded or redacted from ordinary logs, tickets, screenshots, and collaboration tools.
If required protection is unavailable, sensitive processing stops rather than using an insecure fallback.

SECTION 4 | SECURE OPERATION

Development, Change, Monitoring, and Providers

Secure Development and Change

Define security and privacy requirements before material design or integration changes.
Use source control, peer review, tested changes, controlled deployment, and rollback where feasible.
Do not place production secrets or unrestricted personal data in source code, test fixtures, or ordinary logs.
Use sanitized, masked, synthetic, or minimum necessary data in non-production environments.
Review dependency, permission, exposure, logging, retention, and abuse risks before release.
Record and approve emergency changes, then conduct timely retrospective review.

Logging and Monitoring

Monitor material authentication, administrative, application, host, network, and security events where supported.
Protect logs from unauthorized access and exclude or redact sensitive payloads and secrets.
Review critical alerts promptly and escalate suspected compromise through incident response.
Monitor security-agent health, coverage gaps, vulnerabilities, and material service availability.
Retain relevant operational and security evidence according to legal, contractual, incident, and policy needs.
Restrict detailed findings and raw evidence to authorized operational or security personnel.

Third-Party and Service-Provider Security

Before use: Assess purpose, data, location, access, security, subcontracting, resilience, incident, return, and deletion requirements.

Contract: Apply appropriate confidentiality, data protection, security, notification, audit, and termination obligations.

Access: Provide only the minimum data, integration permission, and system access required for the approved service.

Monitor: Maintain an accountable owner and review material providers, service changes, incidents, and unresolved risks.

Terminate: Revoke access, recover assets, and require return or deletion of information where applicable and feasible.

SECTION 5 | DETECTION AND RESPONSE

Vulnerabilities, Incidents, and Resilience

Vulnerability and Threat Management

Use approved monitoring, security alerts, vendor advisories, and supported vulnerability scanning.
Validate findings and prioritize by severity, exploitability, exposure, asset criticality, and data impact.
Assign owners and target dates; actively exploited exposure receives immediate containment.
Verify remediation through rescan, testing, or equivalent evidence before closure.
Time-limited exceptions require rationale, accountable ownership, compensating controls, approval, and expiry.

Incident Response

Report suspected compromise, data loss, unauthorized access, misuse, or material disruption immediately.
Triage, contain, preserve evidence, investigate, eradicate, recover, and validate monitoring.
Assess affected data, systems, individuals, partners, jurisdictions, duration, and likely impact.
Coordinate required TikTok Shop, seller, customer, individual, or regulatory notifications through authorized owners.
Record timeline, decisions, evidence, communications, corrective actions, and closure approval.

Continuity and Recovery Lifecycle

Prepare: Identify critical services, dependencies, owners, recovery priorities, protected backups, and alternate procedures.

Respond: Protect people and data, stabilize service, communicate status, and activate approved continuity actions.

Restore: Recover from trusted configurations or backups, test function and security, and monitor for recurrence.

Review: Document impact, decisions, recovery evidence, gaps, owners, and corrective actions.

Exercise Evidence: The program requires periodic review and exercise planning. This policy does not represent that a completed independent exercise or penetration-test report is included.
