Executive Summary Preview

Linear (linear.app) is a product development and issue-tracking SaaS tool assessed at Tier 3 (Moderate Risk) with medium data access. The overall security posture reflects a maturing compliance program with solid technical controls, offset by transparency gaps in subprocessor disclosure and AI data handling that require resolution before full procurement approval.

Recommended Actions

  1. Obtain Linear's SOC 2 Type II audit report: contact their security team directly or access the Vanta-hosted trust report linked from https://linear.app/security. Confirm the audit period covers the last 12 months and request a bridge letter if the report predates this assessment by more than 6 months.
  2. Resolve the subprocessor transparency gap: request a current populated subprocessor list from Linear (referencing the DPA Exhibit B), or ask Linear to update the public page at https://linear.app/subprocessors. Review each listed subprocessor for jurisdiction adequacy before processing personal data.
  3. Request Linear's AI data handling terms before enabling AI features: specifically ask about training data use, third-party model providers, retention periods for AI-processed inputs, and opt-out mechanisms. Start with the DPA at https://linear.app/dpa and ask for any AI-specific addendum.

Linear Compliance and Security Context

Linear is a project management platform widely adopted by engineering teams, processing issue tracking data, sprint planning, and development workflow information. Linear claims SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance. Organizations using Linear alongside other development tools should assess data flows between Linear and connected services (GitHub, Slack, Figma) as part of a holistic vendor risk assessment. For related vendor assessments, see the Figma security review and Slack compliance review.

Linear Security Posture

ThirdProof investigated Linear across 27 intelligence sources and assigned a Low Risk (Tier 4) rating with 82% confidence. Sanctions screening returned clear. Domain reputation is clean across 93 engines with an A+ SSL/TLS grade and B+ HTTP security grade (80/100). The 7-year domain history is relatively short compared to enterprise incumbents, but Linear's clean threat intelligence profile and strong infrastructure security support a favorable risk assessment.

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Linear a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Linear safe to use as a vendor?+
Linear is a project management vendor that handles organizational data. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see Linear's full risk profile.

Yes — Linear holds SOC 2 + 2 other certs. Rated Moderate Risk — subprocessor page incomplete. See all 5 findings →
Has Linear had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly project management platforms like Linear 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 Linear on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for project management vendors. ThirdProof screens Linear against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Linear or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Linear for vendor risk?+
Assessing Linear as a project management vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and applicable industry standards compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
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.

Linear is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates Linear across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
