Document Management Software as a Service (SaaS)

SAAS SECURITY

DOCUMENT SECURITY: Document Manager provides industry standard security throughout the document lifecycle. Whatever the application there are always concerns over security and privacy of information accessible via the public internet.

Ultimately nothing is hack-proof, as evidenced by the ever frequent high profile news stories of Government agencies or Social Media sites being targeted, however, there are steps that can be taken to minimize the risks, and limit any consequences.

DOCUMENT MANAGER SOFTWARE: Document Manager is architected as a ‘multitier’ application based on HTML-5. Our solution incorporates countermeasures recommended as best practice by OWASP. As well as protecting against external threats we also protect against internal risks, using encryption of key configuration settings and obfuscation of application code.

ENCRYPTION: The document files held in the system are themselves encrypted, so in the extremely unlikely event of the data center security being breached, and access to the document files obtained, their content remains secure. Even trusted data center staff will not have access to document content. All user credentials are hashed with a one way hash that even we cannot decode.

WORKSTATION SECURITY: All temporary files held on the workstation are encrypted.

Documents scanned at the workstation are encrypted whilst on the workstation and decrypted after upload, so any use of shared workstations does not expose information between users.

VALIDATION: Although best practice measures for security are followed by our software engineers and hosting provider(s) we are not complacent enough to believe we are infallible. Our solution has been independently Penetration tested to ensure that nothing has been overlooked, and this process is ongoing. Some of our key customers also commission their own penetration testing.

USER LEVEL SECURITY: User account management is managed by you, or if you prefer we can manage it for you. User password policies can be applied, including mix of alpha/numeric passwords, case sensitive and periodic password changes, including account lock out on failures. All system access is audited so you have a full record of who has had access to which documents, when and where from. For ultimate access control we now offer Multi-Factor authentication requiring a second access code in addition to username and password.
