In an era where data breaches and cyber threats dominate headlines, protecting your sensitive business documents is more important than ever. AbroadSign employs industry-leading security measures to ensure your documents remain confidential, integral, and available. Our comprehensive security infrastructure is designed to meet and exceed the requirements of the most demanding enterprise clients and regulatory bodies.
Encryption Standards
All documents uploaded to AbroadSign are protected with AES-256 encryption, the same standard used by governments and financial institutions worldwide. This encryption is applied both at rest (when documents are stored) and in transit (when documents are being uploaded or downloaded), ensuring that your data is never exposed to unauthorized parties during any stage of the document lifecycle.
Our encryption keys are managed through hardware security modules (HSMs) that meet FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification requirements. These specialized hardware devices provide tamper-resistant key storage and cryptographic processing, ensuring that even in the unlikely event of physical compromise, your encryption keys remain secure. We also support customer-managed encryption keys for Enterprise clients who require additional control over their key lifecycle.
- AES-256 Encryption: Industry-standard military-grade encryption
- TLS 1.3: Latest transport security protocol for data in transit
- HSM Key Management: FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified key protection
- Customer-Managed Keys: OptionalBring Your Own Key (BYOK) for enterprises
Compliance Certifications
AbroadSign maintains rigorous compliance certifications that demonstrate our commitment to information security. Our platform undergoes regular audits by independent third parties to verify our security controls and ensure we meet or exceed industry standards. These certifications provide you with the assurance that your documents are handled according to globally recognized security best practices.
| Certification | Scope | Renewal Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| SOC 2 Type II | Security, Availability, Confidentiality | Annual |
| ISO 27001 | Information Security Management | Triennial with annual surveillance |
| GDPR | Data Protection (EU) | Continuous compliance |
| CCPA | Consumer Privacy (California) | Continuous compliance |
Access Controls and Authentication
Controlling who can access your documents is fundamental to document security. AbroadSign provides granular access controls that allow you to define exactly who can view, edit, or share documents within your organization. Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that users only have access to the features and data they need to perform their jobs, following the principle of least privilege.
Security is not a feature we add to our platform—it is the foundation everything else is built upon. From encryption to access controls to audit logging, every aspect of AbroadSign is designed with security as the primary consideration.
For organizations requiring enhanced security, we offer multi-factor authentication (MFA) options including SMS-based OTP, authenticator apps, and hardware security keys. Enterprise customers can also integrate with their existing identity providers through SAML or OIDC protocols, enabling single sign-on (SSO) while maintaining centralized user management. IP whitelisting adds another layer of protection by restricting access to documents from approved network locations only.
- Role-Based Access Control: Precise permission management
- Multi-Factor Authentication: Additional verification layers
- Single Sign-On Integration: SAML and OIDC support
- IP Whitelisting: Restrict access to authorized networks
Audit Trails and Compliance Reporting
Every action taken within AbroadSign generates a detailed audit trail that记录 who did what, when, and from where. These immutable audit logs provide the evidence needed for compliance demonstrations, internal investigations, and regulatory audits. Our audit trails capture not just document actions, but also user authentication events, permission changes, and system configurations.
Compliance reporting is automated wherever possible, reducing the administrative burden of maintaining regulatory compliance. Custom reports can be generated on demand or scheduled for regular delivery, giving you flexibility in how you collect and present compliance evidence. For organizations subject to specific industry regulations, we maintain documentation that helps demonstrate compliance with requirements such as GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, and industry-specific standards.
Data Residency and Disaster Recovery
Understanding where your data is stored is critical for compliance with data residency regulations. AbroadSign maintains data centers in multiple geographic regions, allowing you to choose where your documents are stored. This ensures compliance with regulations that require certain data to remain within specific jurisdictions, such as GDPR requirements for EU data or data localization laws in various countries.
Our disaster recovery infrastructure is designed to ensure business continuity even in the face of catastrophic events. We maintain real-time replication to geographically separated backup facilities, with documented recovery point objectives (RPO) of less than one minute and recovery time objectives (RTO) of under one hour. Regular disaster recovery testing ensures our procedures work when needed, giving you confidence in the availability of your documents.
