At Seventh Triangle, we prioritize security in every system integration and theme development project we undertake. Here are the best practices we follow to ensure robust security across all integrations:

1. Data Protection and Access Control:
   We ensure that all sensitive data, including passwords, API keys, and access tokens, are securely stored and managed. We follow encryption best practices both at rest and in transit, ensuring that only authorized personnel and systems have access to this data. Access control policies are regularly reviewed to prevent unauthorized access.
   
   
2. API Security:
   When integrating third-party services or building custom apps, we follow Shopify's API guidelines to securely handle data. All API calls are authenticated using secure OAuth tokens, and we implement strict rate limiting to prevent abuse.
   
   
3. App Proxy for Secure Data Handling:
   We utilize Shopify’s App Proxy to securely handle public requests when necessary, ensuring that only vetted requests from Shopify are processed by our servers.
   
   
4. Network Security:
   To enhance network security, we implement AWS WAF (Web Application Firewall) to filter and monitor HTTP requests and block malicious traffic before it reaches our servers. Additionally, we leverage Google reCAPTCHA V2 to protect forms and interactive elements from bots and automated attacks.
   
   
5. Encryption and Secure Storage:
   We use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) to secure data in transit and ensure all external connections, including API communications, are encrypted. All sensitive data, including credentials and PII, is stored in encrypted databases with strict access policies.
   
   
6. Security Audits and Penetration Testing:
   We regularly conduct Information Security Audits and Vulnerability and Penetration Testing (VAPT) to identify potential vulnerabilities in our systems. Any identified issues are promptly addressed, ensuring ongoing compliance with industry security standards.
   
   
7. Secure Deployment Practices:
   Our CI/CD pipelines follow strict security protocols, ensuring that code is reviewed, scanned for vulnerabilities, and securely deployed. We also limit access to our deployment environments and use role-based access control (RBAC) to prevent unauthorized changes.
   
   
8. Third-Party Integrations:
   When working with third-party services, we ensure that integrations are secure by using API keys, webhooks, and OAuth tokens with strict scopes and expiration policies. We also verify the security practices of any third-party services we integrate to ensure they meet our standards.
9. User Authentication and Authorization:
   We implement robust authentication mechanisms such as OAuth 2.0 for secure user login, session management, and API access. For apps requiring customer data, we ensure that data is accessed and modified only by authenticated users with proper authorization levels.
   
   
10. Monitoring and Logging:
    We maintain comprehensive logging of API activity, system access, and potential security events. Our logging and monitoring tools allow us to detect unusual activity and respond to security incidents in real-time.
    
    
11. Compliance: We ensure that all our projects comply with relevant industry standards and data privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and PCI-DSS when handling customer data, particularly in eCommerce environments. We provide transparency to our clients about how their data is handled.

At Seventh Triangle, we follow industry-standard best practices in version control to ensure seamless collaboration, maintain code quality, and safeguard project integrity. Specifically, we use Git for all code development and integration work, including Shopify theme development and system integrations. Here are some of the best practices we adhere to:

1. Connecting Shopify Themes to Git Repositories: By connecting the Shopify store's theme to a Git repository, we can track every change made to the theme files. This allows for complete transparency and accountability in the development process. Any changes can be easily reverted if needed, minimizing the risk of errors in production.
   
   
2. Branching Strategy: We implement a well-defined branching strategy, such as Gitflow or trunk-based development, depending on the project’s needs. This typically includes:
   
   • Master/Main branch: Reserved for stable, production-ready code.
   
   • Feature branches: Used for individual features or bug fixes, keeping development isolated until it’s ready to be merged.
   
   
3. Commit Messages and History: We maintain a clear and concise commit history with meaningful commit messages, following conventional commit standards (e.g., “fix: resolve broken image on homepage” or “feat: add new product filter”). This makes it easier to understand the context of changes when reviewing code or debugging issues.
   
   
4. Code Reviews and Pull Requests: Every change, whether a small fix or a new feature, goes through a pull request process. This allows for peer reviews, ensuring that the code adheres to best practices, is properly tested, and does not introduce new bugs. We use tools like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket to facilitate this review process.
   
   
5. Version Tagging: We regularly tag releases with version numbers (e.g., v1.0.0, v1.1.0) to create distinct checkpoints in the code. This practice simplifies tracking of changes between different versions and facilitates easy rollbacks in case of issues in production.
   
   
6. Reverting and Rollbacks: Git’s powerful rollback functionality allows us to revert to previous stable versions of the theme or any codebase quickly if any issues arise in production. This is particularly important in high-traffic Shopify stores where uptime is critical.
   
   
7. Security Practices: Sensitive information such as API keys, access tokens, and credentials are never hard-coded into the repository. Instead, we use environment variables and encrypted secrets to ensure that no sensitive data is exposed in version control.
