Security

The confidentiality and security of your data is of prime concern to the developers of Bastion.

Access control
It’s up to you who can use Bastion, and what each person can see. Everyone will be assigned an individual username and password, and you can assign to that login account custom access privileges– so your staff and management cannot access information which you don’t want them to see. You can change passwords and privileges whenever you like.

The authentication of users to the software is managed using the Macromedia Coldfusion Application Framework.

SSL Encryption
All information passed to and from the Bastion system is passed over an Encrypted Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Connection. An encrypted SSL connection requires all information sent between a client and a server to be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the receiving software, thus providing a high degree of confidentiality. In addition, all data sent over the encrypted SSL connection is protected with a mechanism for detecting tampering - that is, for automatically determining whether the data has been altered in transit. (Hosted option only).
Server security
Your data will be kept on a Windows 2000 server protected using the Windows 2000 Security Model. In addition the server sits behind a SonicWall firewall. SonicWall use stateful multi-layer inspection, the most advanced firewall technology available, to detect and thwart all known hackers and DoS attacks. (Hosted option only).

Backups
In addition to these security measures we also take nightly backups of your data to make sure that there is no chance you can lose data either through user error or hardware error. (Hosted option only).
