How does BufferZone work?

BufferZone is a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform designed for seamless accessibility, allowing you to log in and utilize its features from virtually any location at any time, provided you have an Internet connection. Whether you're working from the office, at home, or on the go, BufferZone ensures that its tools and functionalities are always within reach, delivering flexibility and convenience across various devices and settings.

Is it possible to back up my data locally?

Your data is securely stored online and automatically backed up on a daily basis, ensuring that your information is consistently protected and up-to-date. We maintain backup copies of your data for a 30-day period, providing a reliable safety net in case you need to restore any lost or corrupted files.

Additionally, if you prefer to have a local copy of your data, you have the flexibility to export your company's information as CSV files, allowing you to store and manage these files on your own devices for added control and accessibility.

What is the process for transitioning from my old software to BufferZone?

During the onboarding process, our experienced developer will handle the entire migration of your data from your existing software to BufferZone. This includes carefully transferring all relevant information, ensuring a smooth transition, and minimizing any potential disruptions to your operations.

Our goal is to make the switch to BufferZone as seamless as possible, so you can start using the new platform with your data fully intact and ready for use. Throughout this process, we’ll work closely with you to ensure that all your data is accurately and securely migrated, allowing you to quickly and efficiently begin leveraging the benefits of BufferZone.

What should I do if I accidentally delete customer data?

Once your account is active, your data will be securely retained in BufferZone, ensuring that it is never physically deleted or permanently lost. Even if data is accidentally deleted, our system is designed to recover and restore it, giving you peace of mind that your valuable information is always safe and accessible.

Our robust data management protocols guarantee that any mistakenly deleted data can be quickly retrieved, so you won’t have to worry about losing important files or information. BufferZone's commitment to data security means that your information is continuously protected, with the assurance that you can restore any deleted data whenever necessary.

How can I log in to the BufferZone?

Each user within your company is provided with a unique username and password, granting them secure access to your company account. This personalized login ensures that every individual has their own credentials, allowing them to sign in to the system independently while maintaining the security and integrity of your company’s data.

By assigning distinct usernames and passwords to each user, we help safeguard your account from unauthorized access and ensure that all interactions with the system are properly authenticated and tracked. This approach not only enhances security but also allows for personalized user experiences, tailored to the specific roles and responsibilities of each team member.

Does BufferZone support single sign on?

We offer support for Single Sign-On (SSO) using your Microsoft Account, making it easier for you and your team to access our platform without the need for separate login credentials. This integration simplifies the login process and enhances security by allowing you to use your existing Microsoft credentials to seamlessly access our system.

Additionally, if your company utilizes other authentication systems, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We are more than willing to explore compatibility options and discuss potential integrations with the systems your company is currently using. Our goal is to provide a streamlined and efficient login experience tailored to your organization’s specific needs.

Data Confidentiality

Trusted Cloud Service: Your shop's files and data are securely stored using a cloud-based storage and database solution.

Multitenancy Architecture: Each shop's data is assigned a unique Tenant ID, ensuring that it is only accessible to authorized users within that shop and remains confidential from other shops.

Data Encryption: Sensitive information requiring high security, such as credit card numbers, bank account details, and access passcodes, is encrypted. For example, credit card information is not stored within BufferZone but is securely managed by the our Payment Partner.

Multi-Level User Roles: Users with different roles within the system have access to various levels of data and activities, allowing for customized access control based on their specific responsibilities.

Data Integrity

Metadata and Logs: All data within the system is accompanied by metadata, including details such as the creator, modifier, creation time, and modification time. Significant changes to critical data, such as job entries, are thoroughly logged. Data is never physically deleted from the system, ensuring that it can be recovered at any time.

Identity Management and Access Control: User identities and roles are exclusively managed by shop administrators. This ensures that access to the shop's system is restricted and controlled, with permissions granted solely by authorized administrators.

Infrastructure Security: Our application and database servers are hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with optimal security configurations, including firewall protections and security group access controls.

Data Security in Transit and at Rest: Data communication is secured using the HTTPS protocol, while data is encrypted both during transmission and when stored.

User Password Security: Passwords are hashed using SHA-256 with added salt for enhanced security.

Data Availability

DDoS Protection: Our web servers are safeguarded against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks through Internet Information Services (IIS) Dynamic IP Restrictions and AWS Shield.

Protection Against Cross-Site Scripting and SQL Injections: Our Secured Platform is employed to protect against cross-site scripting and SQL injection vulnerabilities.

High Availability Architecture: We are considering implementing AWS's High Availability architecture, which provides a 99.9% uptime guarantee according to their service-level agreement.

Disaster Recovery: We conduct frequent backups to ensure that we can recover data within 2 hours, in line with our Recovery Time Objective.
