How Spacewell’s Development Practices Protect Your Data

We will delve into the development team practices and how they go the extra mile to secure your data while also ensuring compliance with modern data protection regulations. Let's go through the world of data security, where information protection is more than just a feature.

The Foundation of Security: Role-Based Access Management

We turn to the cornerstone of Spacewell's data security strategy: Role-Based Access Management. Imagine a library where not everyone can access every book on the shelf. Similarly, Role-Based Access Management restricts access to personal data based on job roles and responsibilities. Employees can only access the necessary data for their specific tasks. This means that the right people have access to the correct information, enhancing data security and reducing the risk of breaches.

Data Minimization: A Minimalist Approach to Privacy

In the age of data abundance, it's crucial to practice data minimization. The software processes only data that is strictly necessary for the intended purpose. This reduces the data footprint and ensures that only essential information is handled, diminishing the risk of data leakage or misuse.

Data Portability: Your Data, Your Control

Data ownership is paramount, and Spacewell recognizes that. Data is available to clients on a simple request, with specific roles authorized to export or transfer data as required. This empowers you to maintain control over your information and its mobility.

Data Rectification and Erasure: Your Right to Correction and Erasure

Sometimes, data needs a little refinement or even a complete erasure. Clients can request data rectification or erasure, with only authorized personnel capable of executing these requests. This ensures that your data is secure and under your control.

Sentries of Your Data: Audit Trails

In our data protection journey, we encounter audit trails - the vigilant guardians of your data. Audit trails have been implemented to continuously monitor and record user actions related to data access and processing. This enables swift detection of unauthorized access or data breaches, acting as a watchful sentry.

The Armor of Data Encryption

Data protection is incomplete without the armor of data encryption. By default, Spacewell ensures that data is encrypted, with limited and audited access to encryption keys or sensitive data decryption capabilities. This ensures that even if someone gains access, they will need the keys to decipher the information.

Two-Factor Authentication: Double the Security, Double the Protection

Two-factor authentication (2FA) is integrated as part of the Role-Based Access Management system, adding an extra layer of security. This feature ensures that even if user credentials are compromised, the second factor provides an additional barrier to protect your data.

Role Reviews and Audits: Keeping Access in Check

Regular reviews and audits of user roles and permissions are paramount in our ongoing quest for data security. They ensure that unnecessary privileges are promptly removed to maintain security and compliance.

User De-Provisioning: A Graceful Exit

Processes and workflows are established to effectively de-provision user access in cases where employees leave the organization or change roles. This ensures that past users do not leave any open doors to your data.

Complete Tenant Separation: The Walls That Protect

Spacewell's multi-tenant platform is built with full tenant separation, making it physically impossible to access the data of other tenants by chance of software bugs or misconfiguration. Your data remains exclusively yours.

Third-Party Integrations: Extending the Shield

When integrating third-party services or applications, we ensure that access controls extend to these integrations to maintain control over data access and processing. Even the bridges to the outside world are guarded.

Secure Data Deletion: Your Data, Your Say

Spacewell implements secure data deletion mechanisms to permanently remove user data upon request or at automated retention intervals. This guarantees that your data is never held hostage.
