Security in data collection and processing

When collecting data over the Internet / intranet, you often come into contact with questions about the security of your data and data protection requirements. Here it is particularly important to ensure the safe operation of your system. An attack or unauthorized access to data could lead to great damage and loss of trust.

As a system expert in your company, you also take care of compliance with legal regulations and important standards.
In this context, these factors for security in your company are important:

  • GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
  • Secure data transmission through end-to-end encryption in all areas
  • internal access authorization and management of your own data in your company

With FORMCYCLE you can rely on secure data processing that complies with legal requirements. This leaves more time for you to focus on the important things in your company.

 

What are the safety features of FORMCYCLE?
