System Security

SYSTEM SECURITY

Security concerns about SaaS based GRC solutions are always high as organisation's critical data lies here. Our Information Security team relies on the best in the Industry solutions coupled with our strong commitment, business culture and ethics to ensure you worry only for your Risk and Compliance; not IT.

System Security

With users spread across globe accessing LAWRBIT services, small, medium and large organizations count on our security and data protection to meet their needs. We take security very seriously and have developed a comprehensive set of practices, technologies and policies to help ensure your data is secure.

System security architecture and policies are defined in Lawrbit’s System Security document. The document further outlines some of the mechanisms and processes we have implemented to help ensure that your data is protected.

Lawrbit is dedicated to helping customers be more secure when accessing our service. With the evolving threat landscape, we have taken multiple steps to avoid unauthorized access to client’s environment and ensure secure data in transit and at rest.

Application is enabled with multi factor authentication when any user logs into the application. MFA has been designed to give security controls in hands of every user and he can configure following setting on his own:

  • Default Setting: User has to use a Verification code that will be send on his Mail id while logging from a new browser for the first time.
  • Always On: The user can set always on setting and system will push for Verification Code every time he logs in to the application. This setting is particularly useful while using shared systems.
Two-Factor Authentication

Two-Factor Authentication

Data Encryption using AES 256

Data Encryption using AES 256

  • AES 256 Encryption is used for data at rest and data in transit
  • LAWRBIT deploys enterprise-grade encryption for all participant and session files, while maintaining an intuitive user experience.
  • Industry standard AES-256 encryption ensures that if a non-authenticated user obtains a file from our solution, data will not be accessible.
  • LAWRBIT encrypted files will require the file owner to login in order to view data. Sharing of files will be tightened in order to adequately support security enhancements and ensure protection of data.
  • The protection of customer data is a very important requirement of the LAWRBIT as it contains Personal Identifying Information (PII) in the form of first and last name, email address, mobile no, designation and (potentially) employee identification number. In order to secure this PII data at rest, these fields are encrypted within the AWS Relational Data Store (RDS) database using industry “best practice” encryption technologies.

Other Security Aspects

Lawrbit uses Amazon Web Hosting (AWS) to host all its applications. AWS provides us flexibility to host application closer to client’s country of origin and ensure adherence to Data Protection Laws and provide a faster access to the application.

The architecture has been designed to achieve following key objectives:

  • High availability
  • Performance and scalability
  • Scaling of the application to cater varying traffic requests
  • Securing the application and database environment

AWS Tools & Services Used

AWS Services used / enable by Lawrbit to enable fast and secured access of application data to end user

  • AWS CloudTrail is a service that enables governance, compliance, operational auditing, and risk auditing of your AWS account. With CloudTrail, you can log, continuously monitor, and retain account activity related to actions across your AWS infrastructure. CloudTrail provides event history of your AWS account activity, including actions taken through the AWS Management Console, AWS SDKs, command line tools, and other AWS services. This event history simplifies security analysis, resource change tracking, and troubleshooting. Learn More https://aws.amazon.com/cloudtrail/
  • Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. You define your virtual Amazon EC2 environment with the operating system, services, databases, and application platform stack required for your hosted application. Amazon EC2 provides a full management console and APIs to manage your compute resources. Learn More https://aws.amazon.com/ec2
  • Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) provides a simple web services interface to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. It is durable, highly available, and secure. Amazon S3 also stores multiple redundant copies of your data. Learn More https://aws.amazon.com/s3/
  • Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. It provides cost-efficient and resizable database capacity while managing time-consuming database administration tasks. Learn More https://aws.amazon.com/rds/
  • AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) enables you to manage access to AWS services and resources securely. Using IAM, you can create and manage AWS users and groups, and use permissions to allow and deny their access to AWS resources. Read More at: https://aws.amazon.com/iam/
  • AWS Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a simple best practice that adds an extra layer of protection on top of your user name and password. With MFA enabled, when a user signs in to an AWS website, they will be prompted for their user name and password (the first factor—what they know), as well as for an authentication code from their AWS MFA device (the second factor—what they have). Taken together, these multiple factors provide increased security for your AWS account settings and resources. Learn More https://aws.amazon.com/iam/details/mfa/
  • AWS Config is a service that enables you to assess, audit, and evaluate the configurations of your AWS resources.
