FAQs

We get asked a lot of questions, so we’ve pulled them together to make it easier for you to find the answers you need. This page is updated regularly, so be sure to check back for updates.

Does Appspace adhere to Information security standards?

ISO27001 – The Appspace Security Team has modeled our internal security policies on the ISO27001 Certification. Certain aspects of the certification do not apply to our customer’s needs, but we are working on expanding the scope of the certification of our product and cloud services portfolio.

Will Appspace share information on its internal controls?

We have put a lot of work into implementing controls that help us meet our customer’s needs and can adjust quickly to the realities and challenges of delivering a SaaS platform. We include the controls found in external regulatory requirements and industry standards.

Who has access to user data?

For Appspace cloud users, we’ve outlined our approach in our Cloud Security Statement and our Privacy Policy.

Is user data encrypted?

Appspace uses TLS to protect information while in transit across the Internet. We have implemented TLS1.2 and higher to support 256bit and higher encryption, further supporting data protection.

How are backups managed?

All database and content backups for the Appspace platform occur at least every four hours, and backups are retained for no less than three months. All backup data is encrypted.

Is TLS always used?

Yes, Appspace cloud-based systems only use TLS, for communication. In addition, and in line with Industry standards, we have removed support for SSL 3.

How are user passwords stored?

Passwords are stored in a one-way hash within the Appspace platform.

Does Appspace audit its cloud security?

We have an extensive security process that includes ongoing testing of our hosted systems.  We also undertake third party independent assessments of our platform.

Can we see the testing reports?

We are working on determining the best way to share reports and be open about our internal testing results in a way that is secure and makes sense for our customers and us.

Can we undertake our own security testing?

In line with our End User Agreement, we currently do not allow customer-initiated testing for our hosted service. We are committed to being open and share security information on this page.

Can you complete my Security Questionnaire?

We are committed to being open and transparent and sharing as much information as we can to enable you to make your decision to use our platform. Unfortunately we are not able to answer each individual questionnaire.

What happens during a security incident?

We aim to ensure Appspace users don’t experience an outage or a security incident. However, an Incident Response Plan outlines the roles and responsibilities for Appspace and its users during such an event. Each plan is tailored to a specific incident type and is issued to account owners should a security incident should occur.
