Standard timezone
Fluid Attacks implements Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as the standard time reference across all infrastructure and platform components to ensure consistency, accuracy, and reliable event correlation.
Scope
It is implemented into the following layers, as described below:
Infrastructure
- All AWS cloud infrastructure is synchronized to UTC via AWS Time Sync Service.
- System clocks are configured to UTC across servers, containers, and virtual machines.
Application
- Platform services generate logs and timestamps in UTC.
- Database records store all temporal data in UTC format.
- API responses include timestamps in ISO 8601 UTC format.
Log management
- SIEM normalizes all log timestamps to UTC during ingestion.
- Security event correlation uses UTC for accurate timeline reconstruction.
- Audit logs maintain UTC timestamps for compliance and forensic analysis.
User interface
- The platform displays timestamps in the user’s local timezone for convenience.
- All underlying data is stored and processed in UTC.
