Executive Summary

AI-generated analysis for Newrelic

New Relic (newrelic.com) is an AI-powered observability platform that has been assessed at Risk Tier 3 (Moderate Risk) with a 94% confidence score, reflecting a well-established vendor with strong compliance credentials offset by several operational and transparency gaps requiring attention. New Relic presents a number of meaningful positive signals that distinguish it from typical SaaS vendors at this tier:

Key Findings

  • FedRAMP Authorization at Moderate Impact Level has been independently verified via the FedRAMP Marketplace registry (authorized February 2020), representing one of the most rigorous third-party security validations available.
  • SOC 2 compliance is claimed on a dedicated trust portal (trust.newrelic.com), which is a positive transparency signal, though the full Type II report has not been independently verified.
  • HITRUST certification is indicated by vendor communications, though this could not be independently confirmed through the HITRUST directory at this time.
  • The domain has been established for nearly 20 years, carries a clean reputation across all major threat intelligence databases (Malware detection service, URLhaus, SURBL, Spamhaus DBL), and operates through a well-whitelisted CDN infrastructure with only 2 open ports (80 and 443) — a minimal, well-controlled footprint significantly below the SaaS industry average of 8–12 open ports.
  • 14 published subprocessors were identified from the vendor's dedicated subprocessor page, with none flagged by sanctions or safety databases. Three areas require buyer attention before or concurrent with onboarding:
  • The TLS certificate for newrelic.com expires in approximately 20 days, which, while likely a routine renewal, represents an unresolved operational hygiene gap at time of assessment.
  • The marketing site (newrelic.com) received a poor HTTP security header grade (D-, 25/100 from HTTP security scanner), with 3 could not be completed tests. While this scan targets the public-facing marketing site rather than the application endpoint (login.newrelic.com), buyers should request clarification on application-layer header configuration.
  • No publicly accessible AI data usage policy was found. Given that New Relic markets AI-powered features prominently, the absence of a clear public commitment regarding AI training data use, retention practices, and third-party model providers is a transparency gap that warrants direct inquiry. Overall, New Relic is a mature, compliance-forward vendor whose FedRAMP authorization and published subprocessor transparency are strong indicators of security program maturity. The Tier 3 rating reflects resolvable operational gaps rather than fundamental integrity concerns, and conditional approval with targeted remediation requests is appropriate.

Independence Statement

All evidence in this report was independently sourced from external data registries, public domain analysis tools, threat intelligence databases, and compliance certification registries without any participation, disclosure, or input from New Relic.

AI Data Usage Policy Not Discoverable at Standard Paths

An AI-specific data usage policy was not discoverable for newrelic.com through automated scanning of common policy paths and web search. The vendor may publish relevant data handling commitments in enterprise agreement documents (DPAs, product terms, licensing portals) that are not indexed at standard public URLs. Request the vendor's Data Protection Addendum or AI-specific terms directly.

Steps to address findings for Newrelic

  1. 1

    Verify TLS certificate renewal urgently: Check https://www.SSL/TLS analysis service.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=newrelic.com within the next 5 business days to confirm the certificate has been renewed. If not, contact New Relic's security team directly and document their response.

  2. 2

    Request AI data handling terms: Contact your New Relic account representative and ask for the current Data Protection Addendum (DPA) and any AI-specific product terms. Ask explicitly whether customer telemetry data is used to train AI models and which third-party AI providers (if any) process that data. Attach the written response to your vendor risk record.

  3. 3

    Request the SOC 2 Type II report and bridge letter: New Relic claims SOC 2 on their trust portal (trust.newrelic.com). Contact their security team to request the full Type II audit report and a bridge letter covering the period since the last audit. Many vendors fulfill this via their trust portal — check trust.newrelic.com first or email security@newrelic.com.

  4. 4

    Verify HITRUST certification status: The vendor has publicly communicated HITRUST certification via official channels, but independent registry confirmation was not achieved. Visit https://hitrustalliance.net/certified-entities/ or contact the HITRUST Alliance directly to confirm current certification status and expiry date. This is particularly important if your organization is subject to HIPAA obligations.

  5. 5

    Verify application-layer HTTP security headers: The HTTP security scanner scan was performed on the marketing site (newrelic.com), which scored D- (25/100). Request that your New Relic security contact confirm the header configuration for the application endpoint (login.newrelic.com) and any data ingestion APIs. You can independently verify at https://observatory.mozilla.org/analyze/login.newrelic.com.

  6. 6

    Document FedRAMP authorization in your risk register: New Relic holds FedRAMP Moderate authorization (verified via https://marketplace.fedramp.gov/products/F1607057910, authorized February 2020). If your organization operates under FedRAMP requirements, note this as a strong positive control mitigating a range of federal security baseline requirements.

Data Coverage Notes

Some data sources may have had limited availability during this assessment. This does not reflect negatively on the vendor.

  • Web archive history data was unavailable during this assessment, limiting the ability to independently confirm the domain's earliest establishment date beyond WHOIS registration records.
  • Certificate Transparency log data (Certificate Transparency service) was unavailable during this assessment; certificate details were extracted from a direct TLS handshake and may not reflect the full subdomain certificate inventory.
  • External cyber risk scoring was not available for this assessment, limiting quantitative benchmarking of New Relic's attack surface against industry peers.
  • Firmographic data (employee count, revenue, company type) was not available from open sources, limiting the ability to contextualize the vendor's organizational scale and financial stability.
  • HITRUST certification could not be independently verified through registry lookup; the finding is based on a high-confidence web signal from an official vendor communication channel and requires manual confirmation.

Has New Relic had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly observability platforms like New Relic that handle application logs, traces, and metrics. 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 New Relic on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for observability vendors. ThirdProof screens New Relic against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If New Relic or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess New Relic for vendor risk?+
Assessing New Relic as a observability vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and FedRAMP 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.

New Relic 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 New Relic 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.
