Cybersecurity in document management
Cybersecurity in document management protects the information that proves compliance: company, worker and equipment documents, audit logs and personal data. A single breach can stop operations, expose contractor data and compromise audits.
In brief
What to protect on a document management platform
Phishing, ransomware and unauthorised access are real risks. Therefore, there are four fronts to cover.
01
Access
Multi-factor authentication, profiles with the least privilege possible and regular permission reviews.
02
Data
Encryption in transit and at rest, as well as tested backups.
03
Traceability
Audit logs that show who accessed, changed or approved each document.
04
Suppliers
Security and data protection requirements in SaaS contracts, especially when the platform processes worker data.

How AISP helps
The right permissions for the right people
AISP administers the platforms it implements, including user profiles and permissions. However, it does not store documentation: it only consults what its tasks require.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Does AISP keep copies of our documents?
No. Documentation stays in the data centres where the technology partners operate the platforms; AISP only consults what its tasks require.
Is multi-factor authentication really necessary?
Without it, a single compromised password gives access to critical documents. That is why it is one of the first measures to require.
What should you require from the platform supplier?
Where the data sits, how the supplier encrypts it, how it makes and tests backups, and which audit logs exist. The contract should also include all of these requirements.
Who has access to your contractors' documentation today?
Show us how you set up access on your platform. We will show you how AISP keeps it in order.
