The scope should be specific enough that a reviewer can tell what is included, what is excluded, and why.

In scope

Use this section to list the actual boundaries adopted by Helixiora. A typical starting point is:

  • the Helixiora legal entities and functions that design, build, operate, or support customer-facing services
  • cloud platforms, internal tooling, endpoints, identities, and repositories used to deliver those services
  • information assets handled by personnel, contractors, and approved suppliers in support of operations

Out of scope

Document any exclusions explicitly. For each exclusion, record:

  • what is excluded
  • why it is excluded
  • which interface or dependency still needs to be managed

Interested parties

Typical interested parties include:

  • customers and prospects
  • personnel and contractors
  • regulators and supervisory bodies
  • suppliers and critical service providers
  • leadership and investors

List the security or compliance expectations that matter most for each party.

Assumptions and constraints

Capture the assumptions that shape the scope, such as shared-responsibility boundaries, reliance on managed platforms, or the absence of on-premise infrastructure.
