Supporting IT & Operations Leaders with Enhanced Data Security Controls

The rapid growth of technology has not only opened doors to myriad business opportunities but has also introduced an array of challenges, especially in the realm of cybersecurity. Today's IT and operations leaders are at the forefront of these challenges, constantly striving for a balance between innovation and security. Enter our new security add-on: the game-changer in the realm of data protection.

This add on comes on top of our standard security practices, like encrypting information in transit and at rest using alongside 2-layer encryption system. We have a dedicated Privacy, Security, and Compliance team monitoring systems continuously and changes in the market. And, within Formstack Forms, out of the box you can set submission passwords, manage users with required 2FA or adding SSO.

Understanding today’s digital threat landscape with data collection and workflow automation

The 21st century has seen an exponential rise in cyber threats. From ransomware attacks to sophisticated phishing schemes, businesses are continually under siege. With these evolving threats, IT leaders are tasked not only with maintaining daily operations but also with safeguarding sensitive data and ensuring compliance with regulations. Add in some of the risks with data collection - you and your team are now responsible to safeguard who has access to information, especially if it’s sensitive. And within the workflow automation space thousands of software solutions are connected, intertwined, and sharing information across various tools, again leaving the responsibility to effectively manage data and information security in your team’s hands.

Making the difference with the Enhanced Data Security Add-on

The key to modern cybersecurity is not just in responding to threats but anticipating them. Our new add-on is built on this very philosophy.

Selective Integrations: We understand the risk associated with numerous third-party integrations. Our add-on only permits integrations that have passed stringent security tests or have entered into agreements, ensuring your data doesn’t land in the wrong hands.

Robust Email Protocols: With sophisticated email-based attacks on the rise, our enhanced SMTP requirements and custom email functionalities help in safeguarding sensitive information, ensuring that vital data remains within the confines of your organization. And, when your information is sent, it is branded to promote more trust for your end users.

API Control Mechanisms: Our add-on limits certain API capabilities to ensure that sensitive data is not passed - not allowing attachments with the API.

Additional Document Security

In a world where documents fly across the globe in seconds, our security measures for document handling mean that documents have less chances to end up in the wrong hands. If an automated document cannot be sent, the error messages will not include the document.

Simplified Compliance and Data Handling: With features like limited form functionalities and SAML Auth protocols, we prioritize both data integrity and user experience. This means that while your data remains safe, the workflow remains seamless.

So, Why Should IT and Operations Leaders Invest?

The answer is simple: proactive security. With the digital landscape being as unpredictable as it is, waiting for a breach to occur and then taking action is no longer viable. Our add-on provides you with additional controls to anticipate and block threats, ensuring that your business remains unscathed in the face of potential cyber-attacks. And, investing in a solution that offers comprehensive security features in one package can save time, effort, and ultimately, money.
