Security you can explain to your board

Schools care deeply about the safety of student and family data. Here's how we protect it — in plain language.

Encryption

All traffic between your school and the platform is encrypted over HTTPS, so information can't be read as it travels across the network.

Audit Logs

Sensitive actions — changes to records, approvals, logins — are recorded with who did them and when, giving you a reliable trail for accountability.

Automatic Backups

Your data is backed up automatically. A mistake, device failure, or outage doesn't mean lost student records.

Role Permissions

Every staff member sees only what their role allows. An accountant sees fees; a teacher sees their classes; an administrator manages the school. No one sees more than they should.

Two-Factor Authentication

Accounts can be protected with an additional verification step, so a stolen password alone isn't enough to get in.

Account Security

Failed login attempts are tracked and accounts lock temporarily after repeated failures, protecting against guessing attacks.

Monitoring

The platform is monitored for errors and unusual activity so issues are caught and addressed quickly.
