Your data, our priority: Orquest’s high security standards

Each year, January 28th marks Data Protection Day, a global reminder of the importance of safeguarding personal information and upholding privacy rights, which is becoming more and more critical in an over-digitized society. At Orquest, we take our clients’ security very seriously and, as a leading retail and restaurant chains workforce scheduling and management solution, we guarantee the highest standards in data protection for our users. 

Orquest‘s commitment to security applies to all software, physical, platform and application layers. As a global Software as a Service (SaaS), it uses Amazon AWS servers, the most secure cloud infrastructure on the market, and is subject to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR EU), one of the strictest laws in this matter, for the confidentiality and non-violation of Orquest users’ personal information. Let’s see how it works.

Orquest high-level security standards

Orquest optimizes retail and restaurant chain employee scheduling while ensuring compliance with the highest standards of security and data protection. 

SSL/TLS encrypted transfer

Orquest prioritizes secure connections, employing the TLS/SSL certified process to create instant protected communication between the server and the user’s browser. This ensures encrypted data transfer, authentication of the company’s identity and signals to users that they are interacting with the application’s legitimate owners. 

Encrypted data

Encryption is the backbone of data protection, and Orquest employs advanced methods to encrypt application-stored information by default. By encrypting data so that only authorized parties with the decryption key can access it, Orquest ensures the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive information.

DDoS attacks prevention

Denial-of-service (DoS) and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks pose a threat to system availability. Orquest combats these malicious attempts with proactive measures, preventing large-scale volumetric DDoS attacks and having an automatic response that minimizes mitigation time and reduces impact.

Continuous backup

Orquest automatically triggers backups after any changes are made to stored data, files or folders. This ensures that data recovery is seamless in the event of unexpected incidents.

AWS Cloud Security

Operating on Amazon AWS, known for its strong security standards, Orquest leverages the most secure cloud infrastructure, providing an additional layer of protection to our clients against potential threats.

AWS is designed to be the most secure global cloud infrastructure. It allows effective risk identification and management, with advanced protection measures, security posture monitoring, and automated incident response and recovery.

Compliance with the strictest data protection regulations

Orquest’s compliance guarantee for all regulations, no matter how complex, extends to the strictest international data protection standards, specifically the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR EU). The Regulation defines lawful data processing, which includes consent, legal obligations and legitimate interests. 

Overall, the GDPR aims to safeguard the rights of individuals through a global framework that promotes ethical and responsible data processing, and Orquest is committed to these standards for the protection of its clients’ and their teams’ data.

Orquest stands at the forefront of software security and data protection. Through data encryption, robust infrastructure, proactive security measures and compliance with the strictest regulations, Orquest ensures that its users can rely on a solution that prioritizes confidentiality, integrity and protection, enabling businesses to thrive in a secure and compliant environment.
