From student admission to graduation and alumni, Classe365 offers a comprehensive set of integrated cloud based modules designed to help you solve your biggest challenges. Our education modules are built for any type of education organisation and based on best practices to maximize the power of the cloud.

Protecting your data with AWS cloud-powered security.

Classe365 secure cloud environment is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. Together with AWS we ensure that our customer's security is our highest priority. As an Classe365 customer, you will benefit from a data center and network architecture built to meet the requirements of the most security-sensitive organizations. Partnering with AWS we ensure more controls and increased privacy including the below benefits:

  • The AWS infrastructure puts strong safeguards in place to help protect customer privacy. All data is stored in highly secure AWS data centers. 

  • AWS manages dozens of compliance programs in its infrastructure. This means Classe365 ensures that local and regional data compliance have already been completed. 

Classe365 Cloud Security Software Development Framework

Classe365 Cloud Platform  are created following a Secure Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) integrating the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) best practices controls. Through the use of Secure SDLC, application and operating system vulnerabilities, as well as secure default configurations, are addressed during application development. Coupled with rigorous functionality and security based testing, security and performance are evaluated with each release.

Global Infrastructure means your data is stored local. 

The AWS Cloud operates in 42 Availability Zones within 16 geographic Regions around the world. This means that we are able to store your data in the nearest AWS global datacenters. Our customers retain complete control and ownership over the region in which the data is physically located, making it easy to meet regional compliance and data residency requirements.

Infrastructure Security

Together with AWS, Classe365 provides several security capabilities and services to increase privacy and control network access. These include:

  • Network firewalls built into Amazon VPC, and web application firewall capabilities in AWS WAF let Classe365 create private networks, and control access to instances and applications

  • Encryption in transit with TLS across all services

  • Connectivity options that enable private, or dedicated, connections from office or on-premises environment

DDOS Mitigation 

Availability is of paramount importance in the cloud. Classe365 services and technologies are built from the ground up to provide resilience in the face of DDoS attacks.

A combination of AWS services with added security measures at the application layer from Classe365 may be used to implement a defense in depth strategy and thwart DDoS attacks. Services designed with an automatic response to DDoS help minimize time to mitigate and reduce impact.

Data Encryption: 

Connection to the Classe365 Cloud Platform is via TLS cryptographic protocols with RSA® encryption, ensuring that customers have a secure connection from their browsers to our service. Individual user sessions are identified and re-verified with each transaction, using a unique token created at login.
For our larger enterprise customers advanced application data encryption is also an option. This addresses encryption requirements associated with privacy concerns and security regulations in private cloud environments.

Backups and Disaster Recovery

Classe365 has a robust Disaster Recovery Plan that fully complements with the rich services offered by AWS. Through the use of advanced secure backup technologies, data replication and failover facilities, Classe365 helps perform daily backups and retain each day's backup upto 6 months. This provides quick recovery, data integrity and availability in the event of a recovery incident on any day of upto 6 months.

Cloud Compliance

Running our cloud platform on AWS provides our customers with added assurance on our cloud security standards. Adhering to to many of the industry requirements enables customers to understand the robust controls in place to maintain security and data protection in the cloud. As systems are built on top of AWS cloud infrastructure, compliance responsibilities will be shared.
