January 24, 2024

How We Ensure the Security of Your Data and Documents on Fortender.com

At Fortender.com, we understand the paramount importance of data security for our valued users. As a SaaS platform hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), we take extensive measures to ensure the utmost security and privacy of your data and documents. 

This article will outline the key steps we have taken to safeguard your information.

Access Control: Limiting Access to Sensitive Information

For data security, we have implemented robust access control measures. Our platform employs strong authentication methods and follows a role-based access control system. These measures effectively limit access to your data.

Encryption: Protecting Your Data from Unauthorized Access

We employ industry-standard encryption protocols to encrypt all data transmitted to and from our platform. Doing so guarantees that any data sent over the internet remains protected from interception by unauthorized parties. In addition, this level of encryption ensures that your data is safeguarded and inaccessible to prying eyes.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS)

Protecting Data in Transit to further reinforce the security of your data during transmission, we utilize Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) protocols. 

These protocols encrypt the data while it is in transit, providing an additional layer of protection against potential interception. With SSL and HTTPS, you can be confident that your data remains private and secure as it travels between your device and our platform.

MongoDB Encryption: Protecting Data at Rest

While Fortender.com stores document references in a MongoDB database, we don't store them. Therefore, we employ MongoDB encryption to protect data stored in our database. This encryption ensures your data remains encrypted and inaccessible to unauthorized parties.

Backup and Disaster Recovery: Ensuring the Integrity and Availability of your Data. 

We recognize the significance of maintaining the integrity and availability of your data. We have implemented comprehensive backup and disaster recovery procedures to ensure your data and documents remain secure during unforeseen disasters or technical issues. Our proactive approach guarantees your information is protected and can be restored should the need arise.

Physical Security: Protecting Your Data in the Cloud 

Fortender.com is hosted on the robust infrastructure of Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS incorporates multiple layers of physical security controls to safeguard the data entrusted to their services. These measures include strict access controls, round-the-clock CCTV monitoring, and biometric authentication to access their data canters.

Regular Security Assessments: Identifying and Addressing Potential Security Issues

We continually subject our platform to regular security assessments to strengthen security measures. These assessments encompass vulnerability scans, penetration testing, and thorough code reviews. By conducting these assessments, we can proactively identify and address potential security issues, ensuring that your data and documents remain safe and secure.

At Fortender.com, the security and privacy of your data and documents are our top priorities. Therefore, we have implemented a comprehensive security framework to protect your valuable information through access control mechanisms, encryption protocols, MongoDB encryption, backup and disaster recovery procedures, physical security measures, and regular security assessments. 

At Fortender, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest security standards and ensuring your peace of mind while using our platform. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are committed to ensuring the security and privacy of your data on our platform.
