Hyperscience reveals how its multi-layered protection approach safeguards your data
In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, where data breaches and cyber threats are more prevalent than ever, safeguarding your company’s sensitive information isn’t just a necessity, it’s a competitive edge. At Hyperscience, we understand that the security of your data is the backbone of your business’s success, which is why we’re committed to securing your digital assets with the highest security standards—from high-level access control to sensitive data protection.
Dive into this blog post to discover how we protect your company’s data and learn why a partnership with Hyperscience means trusting your business to a reliable and secure system.
Hypercell Offerings
Hyperscience offers two deployment types to suit your needs: on-premises/private cloud and SaaS. Both options deliver the same powerful Hyperscience solution.
With on-premises, the platform can fully operate in air-gapped environments, keeping your systems isolated from outside vulnerabilities, and you have full control over your infrastructure and maintenance.
Our SaaS deployment, on the other hand, allows you to enjoy the full benefits of Hyperscience with minimal investment in time, infrastructure, and resources. Instances are isolated and inaccessible, even within Hyperscience, with strict controls governing user support access for troubleshooting. When access is granted, automated systems promptly revoke these permissions upon issue resolution.
Securing Connections
Securing your instance is crucial for safeguarding your data, whether you’re using our on-premises or SaaS solutions. We implement a range of advanced security measures, including encryption for data transmission, secure connections, integration with multiple industry-standard authentication protocols, built-in user management, and more. These features combine to create a secure, controlled environment that is protected from external threats.
To break it down, Hyperscience supports:
- TLS/HTTPS to encrypt data transmission, ensuring secure connections at all times.
- HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) that forces users’ browsers to always connect to your instance over HTTPS.
- On SaaS, incoming network traffic is fortified with AWS Shield and Web Application Firewall (WAF) to detect and thwart malicious attacks. Outbound traffic is strictly limited to your verified endpoints for critical service integrations.
- LDAP (on-premises), OpenID Connect, and SAML, which are established, industry-standard authentication protocols that provide flexibility in user management while maintaining a high level of security.
- Machine-to-machine credentials with OAuth 2.0 that replaces legacy API tokens for enhanced security in programmatic access.
- Built-in user management that ensures secure and efficient user administration.
Restricting Access
Data protection is about more than just securing information—it’s about restricting authorization to it. Our system permissions ensure that each user within your organization can only access and interact with data they are authorized to handle. Users with similar roles are typically included in the same permission group which streamlines access management by assigning consistent permissions to users with similar responsibilities. This approach minimizes the risk of unauthorized access and safeguards your business-critical information.
Hyperscience also extends these controls to specific entities like flows and tasks, allowing you to restrict access to sensitive processes and data. Limiting who can interact with these critical components adds another layer of security, ensuring that only the right people have access to sensitive information. With Hyperscience’s robust authorization controls, you can confidently protect your data, knowing that every interaction is tightly controlled and monitored.
Protecting Data
Protecting data, especially personally identifiable information (PII), is not just a legal requirement but a fundamental responsibility. At Hyperscience, we prioritize the security of our customers’ sensitive data with advanced PII wiping and redaction techniques.
PII wiping ensures that unnecessary personal information is completely removed from your systems. Customers can configure how long PII data remains in the system and choose whether to include or exclude training documents from this process. Our PII redaction capabilities allow you to detect and mask specific data points, such as PII, ensuring that document outputs comply with regulations like FOIA, GDPR, and HIPAA without requiring the need to sanitize the data downstream. These processes significantly reduce the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access, protecting you from identity theft and financial loss.
Hyperscience: Your all-around secure platform
As we look to the future, Hyperscience remains dedicated to staying ahead of emerging threats, continuously evolving our security measures to protect your business in an ever-changing digital landscape. By partnering with us, you’re not just securing your digital assets today—you’re investing in a future where your business can thrive with confidence, knowing that your most valuable information is protected by a system built to adapt and defend against tomorrow’s challenges.
