Enterprise-Grade Security

Your Data. Protected. Always.

Military-grade encryption, complete data isolation, and compliance certifications ensure your school's information stays secure and private.

Security You Can Trust

Military-Grade Encryption

All data in transit and at rest is encrypted using AES-256 encryption, the same standard used by the U.S. Department of Defense. Your school's information is protected by the strongest encryption available.

  • AES-256 encryption (military-grade)
  • TLS 1.3 for all data in transit
  • End-to-end encryption for sensitive data

Complete Data Isolation

Each school's data is completely isolated in separate database partitions. Your student information, compliance records, and configuration settings are never mixed with other schools' data—ever.

  • Separate database partitions per school
  • Row-level security policies
  • Zero cross-contamination risk

Access Control & Authentication

Multi-factor authentication, role-based access control, and audit logging ensure only authorized staff can access your school's data. Every action is tracked and logged.

  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
  • Role-based access control (RBAC)
  • Complete audit trails for all access

Compliance & Certifications

BeaconSeal™ meets the strictest compliance standards for K-12 education, including FERPA, COPPA, GDPR, and SOC 2 Type II. Your school's compliance is our priority.

  • SOC 2 Type II certified
  • FERPA compliant
  • COPPA compliant

How Data Isolation Works

1

Separate Database Partitions

Each school has its own isolated database partition. Student data, compliance records, and configuration settings are stored separately and never mixed with other schools' data.

2

Row-Level Security Policies

Database-level security policies enforce that queries can only access data belonging to the authenticated school. Even if someone gained database access, they could only see their own school's data.

3

Application-Level Isolation

The BeaconSeal™ application enforces isolation at every level. Each API request is validated to ensure the user only accesses data for their school. Cross-school access is impossible.

4

Encryption at All Layers

Data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Even if someone intercepted network traffic or accessed storage directly, they would only see encrypted data they cannot read.

5

Complete Audit Trails

Every access to your school's data is logged with timestamps, user information, and action details. You can audit exactly who accessed what and when, ensuring accountability and compliance.

Security Questions?

Can BeaconSeal™ see my school's student data?

No. BeaconSeal™ staff cannot access your school's data. Our infrastructure is designed so that even our engineers cannot see your data without explicit authorization from your school administrator. All access is logged and auditable.

What happens if there's a data breach?

We maintain comprehensive incident response procedures. In the unlikely event of a breach, we immediately notify affected schools, provide detailed incident reports, and work with law enforcement if needed. We also maintain cyber insurance to cover potential damages.

How long do you keep my data?

We retain audit trail data for a minimum of 3 years to comply with state record-retention requirements. You can request deletion of your data anytime, and we'll securely delete it within 30 days.

Can you guarantee 100% uptime?

We maintain 99.9% uptime SLA with redundant infrastructure across multiple data centers. While we cannot guarantee 100% uptime, our infrastructure is designed for maximum reliability and automatic failover.

Is my data backed up?

Yes. Your data is automatically backed up multiple times daily to geographically distributed data centers. In the unlikely event of data loss, we can restore your data to any point in time.

Can I export my data anytime?

Yes. You can export all your school's data (student records, compliance reports, audit trails) anytime in standard formats (CSV, PDF, JSON). There are no restrictions on data portability.

Your Trust is Our Priority

We understand that schools entrust us with sensitive student and staff information. We take this responsibility seriously and invest heavily in security, compliance, and transparency. Your data security is not negotiable—it's foundational to everything we build.
