Security

At Edusuite, we prioritize the safety and privacy of institutional data. The Edusuite K12 platform is built with robust, enterprise-grade security features to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all user and system information. Below is an overview of the key security measures implemented within the platform:

1. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Edusuite K12 uses Role-Based Access Control to ensure that users can only access the features and data relevant to their role (e.g., guardians, faculty, registrar, administrator). Permissions are configurable to match institutional policies and reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

2. Secure Authentication

Hashed Passwords: All user passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms before being stored.

3. Data Encryption

• In-Transit Encryption: All data transmitted between the client and server is protected using SSL/TLS encryption, preventing interception and tampering.

• At-Rest Encryption: Sensitive data stored in databases and file systems is encrypted to safeguard against data breaches.

4. Activity Logs and Audit Trails

The platform maintains detailed logs of user actions, allowing administrators to monitor system activity, detect anomalies, and trace changes for accountability and compliance.

5. Session Management and Auto-Logout

User sessions are managed with security best practices, including:

• Session expiration after a period of inactivity

• Auto-logout features to prevent unauthorized access from unattended sessions

6. Regular Security Updates and Patching

Edusuite K12 is continuously updated to address new vulnerabilities. Security patches are applied regularly, ensuring protection against the latest threats and exploits.

7. Secure APIs and Integrations

The platform uses secure, token-based authentication for all API connections. Third-party integrations are controlled and monitored to ensure they meet Edusuite's security standards.

8. Data Backup and Disaster Recovery

Edusuite implements automated data backups and disaster recovery protocols to protect against data loss and ensure continuity in the event of system failure or unexpected incidents.

9. Compliance with Data Privacy Standards

Edusuite K12 is designed to align with relevant data protection regulations, including:

• Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Philippines)

User data is handled in accordance with strict privacy policies to ensure ethical and legal compliance.

10. User Education and Admin Controls

System administrators have access to tools that help enforce strong security practices, such as password policies and user access reviews. Additionally, educational materials and alerts help users stay informed about potential security threats like phishing.

Security is a shared responsibility—and with Edusuite K12, your institution benefits from a platform designed with safety at its core. Whether managing student records, financial data, or academic workflows, you can rely on Edusuite K12 to keep your information secure.
