Recommended Actions

  1. Request SOC 2 Type II and SOC 1 Type II audit reports plus bridge letters from Brex's security team — check https://brex.com/trust first, as many fintech vendors publish report access requests there. Also request the PCI DSS Attestation of Compliance (AOC). Set a 30-day deadline for receipt.
  2. Request Brex's Data Protection Addendum (DPA) and any AI-specific product terms. Ask directly whether customer data is used to train models, which third-party AI providers receive data, and what retention periods apply. Require written confirmation as a contractual condition for any medium or high data-access deployment.
  3. Confirm TLS certificate renewal status with Brex's infrastructure team — ask specifically whether Let's Encrypt auto-renewal is configured and monitored. Request confirmation within 30 days given the 62-day expiry window.

Has Brex had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly corporate finance platforms like Brex that handle organizational data. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Brex on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for corporate finance vendors. ThirdProof screens Brex against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases.

Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.
