Recommended Actions

  1. Obtain Heroku's current PCI DSS Level 1 Attestation of Compliance (AoC) — this is a publicly shareable document. Contact Heroku's security team via https://trust.heroku.com or your account representative and ask specifically for the AoC signed by their Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). Confirm the scope covers the specific Heroku regions and services your retail workloads will use. Retain in your TPSP file per PCI DSS 4.0 Requirement 12.8.2.
  2. Request Heroku's current SOC 2 Type II report covering a 12-month audit period — ask their security team for access via trust.heroku.com (many enterprise vendors provide this under NDA). Review the report's scope, auditor opinion, and any exceptions relevant to availability, confidentiality, and security trust service criteria relevant to your retail deployment.
  3. Confirm TLS certificate renewal status within 5 business days by checking https://status.heroku.com and contacting Heroku support if no automated renewal update is visible. Log the outcome with a timestamp in your vendor risk file.

Frequently asked about Heroku

Is Heroku safe to use as a vendor?+
Heroku can be evaluated for vendor safety by checking sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), verifying business registration through legal entity registries like GLEIF, scanning for adverse media coverage including data breaches and regulatory actions, and assessing domain security and cyber risk posture. ThirdProof automates this entire investigation across 24 intelligence sources and produces a deterministic risk tier (1-5 scale) with a confidence score. Run a free investigation to see Heroku's full risk profile.
Does Heroku have SOC 2 certification?+
To verify whether Heroku holds SOC 2 certification, ThirdProof scans the vendor's trust page and security documentation for certification claims, then cross-references those claims against independent registries where available (such as the FedRAMP Marketplace for FedRAMP authorization). Certifications are classified as independently verified, vendor attested, or not found in evidence — ensuring you know the verification level of each claim.
Is Heroku FedRAMP authorized?+
Based on ThirdProof's investigation, Heroku is not currently listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace. Organizations with federal compliance requirements should verify this directly and consider alternative vendors with FedRAMP authorization where required.
Has Heroku had any data breaches?+
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 involving Heroku. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification. The investigation also checks SEC EDGAR for enforcement-related filings and FDIC records for financial institution failures, providing a comprehensive public record review.
Is Heroku on any sanctions lists?+
ThirdProof screens Heroku against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives from similar names. If Heroku or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers an automatic escalation to the highest risk tier. No sanctions match is confirmed through a clean screening report in the investigation output.
How do I assess Heroku for vendor risk?+
ThirdProof investigates Heroku autonomously in under 2 minutes using 24 intelligence sources — no questionnaires, no vendor participation required. The investigation covers sanctions screening, cyber risk scoring, business registration, adverse media, domain security, and more. Reports are formatted for SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC compliance frameworks. Your first investigation is free.
