Data security is a prime focus at ActionHRM. Our HR management service is delivered to you using Amazon’s EC2 Cloud Infrastructure. Your data is stored in an encrypted database on a virtual private server in Amazon’s datacenter. We use multiple layers of security to make sure your data is safe:
- Physical security: Amazon operates and manages the physical infrastructure (servers, network connections, storage arrays, etc.) required for data delivery and storage. They ensure the physical security of their data center. However, they cannot access any data stored on ActionHRM servers.
- Data encryption: All data stored in the ActionHRM database is encrypted using 256 bit AES encryption. To protect data sent to and from our “Cloud Center”, we use the same SSL encryption technique that banks use for online transactions.
- User-based security: All data in the HR management system is distributed on a need-to-know basis. You decide who gets access to what information, and that security is configured by the system administrator using the system’s internal security controls.
We use the best technology combined with Amazon’s world class cloud service to protect your data and securely deliver our HR management system to you.
