Security

Streamline is a hosted/SaaS solution, and we continually update the platform to make sure the sites are secure so that our districts don't have to worry about it at all.

Streamline is built on top of industry-standard platforms that have a multitude of security features built in. The infrastructure is built on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and we make extensive use of security features such as multi-factor authentication for developer access, security groups, firewalls, access control lists, virtual private networking, SSH public/private key a authentication, etc. The main application is built on top of Ruby on Rails and that framework provides protection against cross site request forgeries, SQL injection, etc. All security measures are appropriate for the hosting of public websites, so our main focus is preventing sites from going down or from being vandalized / hacked. With that in mind, we don't recommend storing social security numbers, credit card numbers, or health information in the system.
