Techniques for providing security-related information

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a set of instructions, which, when executed by a computing system, caused the computing system to provide security-related information by:

• storing security-related documents about a service provider;
• monitoring services provided by the service provider for a plurality of security-related features, and storing monitoring results;
• receiving a request to report security-related information about the service provider;
• in response to receiving the request, creating a link for accessing the security-related documents and the monitoring results, including associating the link with a security policy that limits use of the link, the security policy being an access point policy;
• and
• in response to a user accessing the link, providing the user with access to the security-related documents and the monitoring results, including associating the link with an access point from which the user initially accessed the link;
• and
• subsequent to the user initially accessing the link, refusing access to the link from outside the access point.

A system comprising:

• a network;
• a service provider connected to the network;
• and
• one or more computing devices including processing circuitry coupled to memory configured to provide security-related information by:
• storing security-related documents about the service provider;
• monitoring, via the network, services provided by the service provider for a plurality of security-related features, and storing monitoring results;
• receiving, via the network, a request to report security-related information about the service provider;
• in response to receiving the request, creating a link for accessing the security-related documents and the monitoring results, including associating the link with a security policy that limits use of the link, the security policy being an access point policy;
• and
• in response to a user accessing the link, providing, via the network, the user with access to the security-related documents and the monitoring results, including associating the link with an access point from which the user initially accessed the link;
• and
• subsequent to the user initially accessing the link, refusing access to the link from outside the access point.
