Data Storage and Infrastructure
Our IT infrastructure was built using enterprise technology with a security-first approach.Access-Controlled Data WarehouseYour data is stored in a secure, access-controlled Azure Blob container with specific permissions on Microsoft’s enterprise platform.
Separate Databases and Containers for ClientsEvery client receives their own database and data container. Client data is never stored with other client’s data.
Data Encrypted During Transit
Data exchanges are always done over a secure protocol and never exposed to the internet.
Our Partner Portal
All of our dashboards are accessed through our secure Partner Portal designed with security as its first priority. Read about how we protect your dashobards and data within our portal.
Single Sign-On
Add another layer of security and control by enabling SSO through Google or Microsoft. SSO allows you to disable accounts, require 2FA, and leverage Google or Microsoft’s unauthorized sign-in detetion.
Dashboard Permissions
Access to dashboards is set at the user-level. Specify which users get access to which dashboards for perfect control of your data.Dashboard permissions can be managed by your own organizational leaders or by Open Architects staff.
Row-Level Security
Row-Level Security provides granual control over your data. Allow users to access dashboards, but limit the data shown within. This is perfect for school principals or financial analysts that should only have access to one school or department.Our row-level security shows its true power when implemented at the classroom-level. Give teachers access to a Student Overview dashboard that shows data on only their students.
Personnel Security
Security starts with employees, read about some of the measures we have in place.Limited Access for Open Architects Employees
Only relevant Open Architects employees have access to customer data and access is controlled by the System Administrator.
Cyber Security Awareness Training
Our employees go through a Cyber Security Awareness training program designed to educate them on the risks of account takeovers, phishing attacks, and proper password practices.
Policy and Procedures for Secure Separation
We have internal procedures in place for when an Open Architects employee separates from the company. These policies protect your data and limit liabilities.
Background Checks for New Hires
We use a service to perform a background check on all new hires to ensure we know who we are hiring and who will have access to important data.
