Specialist Security Protection For Your Data
Our architecture’s security model is externally validated by independent security experts.
We believe accountsIQ security is far more robust than most systems running on internal company servers because it has:
- Top-level firewall protection against intrusion – and any potential threats are monitored 24/7 and notified to us immediately
- Automatic data backups sent each night to a remote backup facility
- Systematic monitoring of the latest security patches and anti-virus updates and their immediate implementation where necessary
- Best practice procedures and systems for data security, facility security and user security
Data Security
Facility Security
All accountsIQ client data is hosted in OpSource’s high-security data storage facility. The facility’s security features include:
- Biometric scanning and electronic key access for internal security
- CCTV camera coverage of entire facility, including cages
- Back-up generators and UPS (uninterruptible power supply) systems
- Automatic alarm system notification of law enforcement agencies
- Shipping and receiving area walled off from hosting collocation areas
OpSource is SSAE 16 compliant (previously certification was SAAS 70 Type). SSAE 16 Type II is an auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to evaluate the internal controls of a service provider. The audit conducts a series of tests to ensure that the service provider is actually following documented internal procedures and processes to achieve the service provider’s control objectives.
User Security
Our accountsIQ security system allows administrators to control which functions each user within a client company can access and view.
This allows for a clear and secure delegation of tasks and system access according to job requirements. You have total control over who accesses data, and what they can see and do through predefined user profiles.
For example:
- Owner managers can be set up with access to summary management reports
- Data entry personnel can be set up with access to order entry screens only
