To put it simply, data security is the protection and preservation of digital information. This can include anything deemed important and sensitive in nature that needs to retain its confidentiality (kept private), integrity (kept whole or together), and availability (kept accessible). In the context of LCPtracker products and services, it means we strive to prevent unauthorized access, corruption, loss, or theft of data throughout its entire lifecycle.
In this day and age, data is now believed by many to be more valuable than oil because of the insight and knowledge that can be extracted from it. And unfortunately, data that falls into the wrong hands can be used to obtain some sort of measurable benefit – often to the detriment of the owners of the data. Defending it from corruption and unauthorized access can minimize financial loss, reputational harm, consumer trust degradation, and brand erosion. Once information has been obtained by a cybercriminal, it can be very easy for them to leverage it to hack personal accounts or breach businesses. With everything becoming increasingly interconnected – especially among devices (phones, tablets, computers, etc.) – cyber security is of the utmost importance.
Why LCPtracker can be trusted
At LCPtracker, we prioritize information security by staying at the forefront of technological advancements and certifications. We are compliant with both SOC 2 Type 2 and NIST 800-171 standards, verified through independent third-party audits. Our security measures include firewalls, data encryption, and tools to combat various threats. Additionally, we are nearing full FedRAMP certification, placing us among an elite group of about 350 U.S. cloud-based services that meet this stringent security standard. Our recent Authorization to Operate (ATO) approval is a significant milestone on this journey to full FedRAMP certification.
Data accessibility & backup
Data security is not only about keeping information from falling into the wrong hands; it’s also about ensuring it is accessible to the right hands. LCPtracker guarantees at least 99.5% availability of its web applications to its users within a one-year period. In the event of an outage, multiple web app instances in different geographic regions allow users to be redirected to another data center when necessary. LCPtracker also runs nightly backups of all data to a separate data center and additional periodic backups through its cloud database provider, Microsoft’s Azure SQL – both of which allow for a swift disaster recovery.
System monitoring
All systems are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from several locations across the country to identify and resolve issues. Additionally, LCPtracker proactively reviews and evaluates data (and its quality) to ensure that it is fit for purpose.
