Security
PeopleStrategy™ . protects company and employee data by employing security measures at various levels:
Application Security. Every user of the PeopleStrategy™ . System must have a valid username and password combination. Initial passwords are auto-generated and emailed and consequently not known by any employee of PeopleStrategy™ . . The customer administrator has the ability to control access for all features of the product for all employees of their company. In addition to feature level security, PeopleStrategy™ . employs fine-grained data level security to limit access to data. For example a manager should be able to see some information about their employees, such as name, hire-date, salary, etc, but not other employee information such as ethnicity, dependent information or benefits details.
Internet Security . PeopleStrategy™ . uses industry-standard 128-bit secure socket layer (SSL) technology and digital certificates to encrypt and authenticate transactions. SSL creates a secured connection between our web servers and your browser, which eliminates unauthorized access to transmitted data and ensures data is sent only to the intended server.
Database Security. Access to the database is controlled by and limited to the PeopleStrategy™ . application only. Employees of PeopleStrategy™ . do not have physical access to the database or data. Additionally, all data changes are logged and audited.
Server Security. PeopleStrategy™ . has partnered with a leading ASP hosting provider to locate PeopleStrategy™ . server farm in a highly secure, highly available offsite facility. PeopleStrategy™ . server infrastructure is secured using advanced Internet firewalls, network-based intrusion detection systems, redundant / highly available routers and switches, redundant / highly available power facilities, and regularly scheduled backups with offsite storage.
