Unparalled Security
We understand that security is imperative when it comes to protecting student data and we want to assure you that everyone at .CONNECT EDUCATOR takes security seriously. Here are some of the measures we have taken to protect our systems and your data:
Network and Application Security
The following processes have been put into place to protect your data from unwanted third parties.
- Application design. We've designed the system from the ground up with security in mind. By applying best practices in web application security, we prevent critical vulnerabilities.
- SSL. We use 256-bit SSL encryption to protect information as it travels between the customer's browser and .CONNECT EDUCATOR.
- Strong encryption. Especially sensitive information (social security numbers, driver license numbers, etc.) is encrypted in our database using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
- Firewall. Our application, including our customer's data, sits behind a firewall.
- Vulnerability scanning. Our servers are scanned regularly for vulnerabilities by a reputable third party.
- Intrusion detection. Our servers and all traffic are monitored by an intrusion detection system (IDS).
Backups
All your data is backed up nightly on your server with montly backups with an onsite engineer. Backups are encrypted and transferred over SSL to protect the data in transit and at rest.
