Executive Summary

AI-generated analysis for Render

Render (render.com) is a cloud infrastructure platform presenting a low overall risk posture, consistent with the Tier 4 determination.

Area Requiring Attention

The domain carries a clean reputation across 94 security engines, no active sanctions or enforcement actions, and demonstrates strong foundational security including valid SSL, HSTS, and CSP headers. Primary areas of attention are the absence of an independently verified subprocessor list — relevant for GDPR Article 28 and PCI-DSS supply chain obligations — and five compliance certifications that are vendor-attested on the security page but not independently confirmed. For a retail or e-commerce buyer deploying Render in or near a cardholder data environment, formal documentation of shared PCI responsibility and a signed Data Processing Agreement are recommended prior to production use. These are manageable gaps consistent with a conditional approval for CDE-adjacent deployments.

Independence Statement

All evidence underlying this assessment was sourced independently from external data providers and public registries without vendor participation or disclosure.

Steps to address findings for Render

  1. 1

    Request Render's SOC 2 Type II audit report — check trust.render.com first, or email their security team to request a copy (an NDA may be required). This is the single most important compliance document for PCI-DSS TPSP due diligence.

  2. 2

    Obtain and execute a GDPR Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Render before processing any EU personal data. Check https://render.com/dpa or https://trust.render.com, or contact privacy@render.com. The DPA should enumerate Render's subprocessors.

  3. 3

    Request Render's ISO 27001 certificate including the issuing certification body name and the scope statement — confirm it covers the services your organization uses.

  4. 4

    Document shared PCI-DSS responsibility in writing with Render's team: specifically, which PCI-DSS 4.0 controls Render owns (infrastructure, physical, network layer) and which remain the responsibility of your organization (application layer, access control, logging). This is required under PCI-DSS 4.0 Requirement 12.8.5.

  5. 5

    Ask Render's security team to clarify the operational purpose of non-standard open ports (2052, 2082, 2086, 2095, 8880) and confirm whether these are Cloudflare proxy ports outside your organization's control. Document the response in your vendor risk file.

  6. 6

    Set a calendar reminder to re-assess this vendor annually or if a security incident involving major cloud infrastructure providers is publicly reported. Retain this assessment report with your TPSP list and written agreements for QSA review.

Data Coverage Notes

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

  • SSL/TLS deep configuration analysis was not available from the supplementary scanning source during this assessment. Domain-level SSL checks confirmed a valid certificate issued by Google Trust Services with an expiry of April 25, 2026, but cipher suite and protocol-level grading could not be completed.
  • Web archive historical presence data was not available during this assessment. Domain registration records independently confirm render.com has been registered since 1998, providing sufficient domain age context.
  • External cyber risk scoring was not available for this assessment. This does not affect the primary finding set, which is grounded in direct infrastructure, reputation, and compliance evidence.
  • No public subprocessor page was found for Render, limiting the ability to conduct downstream supply chain sanctions or safety checks on Render's own third-party vendors.
  • The Legal Entity Registry LEI match for 'Bækholm ApS' (jurisdiction: DK) was returned as a potential name match but was not verified as the legal entity operating render.com. The LEI entity's registered address references 'Render, Tommerup' as a place name, not a company name. This match is assessed as an incidental geographic name match and is not treated as a confirmed legal entity for Render the cloud infrastructure company.

Can I get an auto-filled security questionnaire for Render?+
Yes. Every ThirdProof investigation of Render produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and a 133-question security questionnaire pre-filled with evidence from 27 independent sources. The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Render a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Render safe to use as a vendor?+
Render is a cloud infrastructure vendor that handles organizational workloads and 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 Render's full risk profile.
Does Render have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Render holds SOC 2 + 2 other certs. Rated Low Risk — subprocessor list unavailable. See all 7 findings →
Has Render had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly cloud infrastructure platforms like Render that handle organizational workloads and 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 Render on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for cloud infrastructure vendors. ThirdProof screens Render against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Render or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Render for vendor risk?+
Assessing Render as a cloud infrastructure vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, 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.

Render 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 Render 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.
