Infrastructure and Security Measures

Well-established infrastructure and stringent security measures are two mandatory requirements for any outsourcing provider. Infrastructure gradually changes over time, opening up new vulnerabilities which can cause serious damage to any service provider. As new methods of attacks are almost invented on a daily basis, we, at Flatworld Solutions, understand that what was secure yesterday may not be fully secure tomorrow. Therefore we leave no stone unturned in ensuring that our research and analysis services are backed up by world-class infrastructure and multi layered security measures.

  • Role based access for project related information

Let us look at each of these security features in detail -

  • Personnel Security

    All our associates are sensitized to the information security measures that we employ and are required to meet our compliance needs before they can come on board. Additionally, the security process at Flatworld Solutions prevents any possible data leaks while ensuring an open channel of communication between our team and the customers.

  • Hardware / Network Security

    We have enabled multiple levels of network security that includes firewalls, URL filters, spam filters and secured VPN communications. These are further supported by industry leading switches that double up our internet and communication security channels. One of our primary objectives with security is to ensure that there is 100% redundancy in our network, data, power, and internet. To meet this, we have adopted fail-safe backups that ensure business continuity.

  • Software Security

    Email communications at Flatworld Solutions are secured through the implementation of digital signatures. Additionally, each system uses a common Windows and Network login that is periodically changed to prevent unauthorized use. For critical desktop and enterprise applications a single sign-in is deployed. Audit trails are put in place to monitor internet usage.

Effective Infrastructure & Security Measures to Ensure Complete Client Satisfaction

At Flatworld Solutions, we are aware of the fact that there is no single solution to solving security issues. Therefore, we have invested in a wide range of technologies and methods to not only ensure preparedness in case of a security breach, but also mount a structured response to mitigate the threat as quickly as possible.
