**Reference ID:** SYSARCH-AUDIT-2025-131
**Subject:** Iterate E-business Platforms System (Version 5.5.8)
**Date of Review:** 2024-02-13

This memorandum summarizes the findings from the architectural compliance audit conducted on the Iterate E-business Platforms System, based on the review of document 'Iterate_E-business_Platforms_System_Architecture_v5.5.8.docx'. The session was quite productive, though we had to reschedule the morning session due to a fire drill. The system comprises 4 core architectural components. 

From a compliance perspective, the assessment is mixed. Positive adherence to standards like PCI_DSS_4.0 was noted in components such as CatchWithinMicroservice. However, significant gaps were identified. The FirstWindMicroservice (IEP-SVC-002), a Microservice, was found to be non-compliant. The primary issue cited was: 'Effect attack certain talk western spend until.'. The responsible 'Transition_Core' has been notified. 

Security posture analysis reveals that access control is managed via API_Keys, JWT, OAuth2. Encryption for data in transit is currently inactive and requires immediate attention. The status of data-at-rest encryption is noted as not fully implemented, posing a significant risk. The last vulnerability assessment is marked as 'Completed'. The projected annual operational overhead for these security measures is approximately $82524.56 USD. 

Inter-component dependency mapping shows a complex web of interactions. For instance, the CatchWithinMicroservice (IEP-SVC-001) depends_on the component identified as IEP-GW-003. Traceability for requirement REQ-IEP-53 appears to be handled by the following components: IEP-SVC-001, IEP-SVC-002. Current test coverage for this is 'Full'. </data>
