This requirement essentially states that the Welkin environments are only as secure as the infrastructure around them. Make sure you have a proper IT policy in place. Regularly review the systems where you store backups and configuration of Welkin.

Welkin recommends disk encryption to be provided at the infrastructure level. If you have this requirement, check for full-disk encryption via the provider audit.
