SECURITY FEATURE

 

MULTI-LAYERED DEFENSE

Greenstar Digital Utilites Platform complies with leading security frameworks, employing bank-level Secured Socket Layer (SSL) encryption on all sensitive interfaces of the platform. API end points communicate through secure socket layers (SSL/TLS) to prevent security threats. User interfaces and web applications use HTTPS-encrypted communication to protect the privacy and integrity of data exchange.

DATA STORAGE

A hierarchical security model strictly enforces security policies for data storage and retrieval. Physical access to data servers is restricted, and facilities hosting the platform have on-site monitoring, multi-factor authentication, and security logging for added protection. Access to customer data is strictly controlled. Every request is authenticated, and access is isolated to the customer-specific data set.

USER AUTHENTICATION

User authentication tightly controls who has access to the platform. Permissions are layered, making it easy to grant multiple degrees of access to information or pass temporary API keys based on user-level permissions. Sensitive customer information, passwords, and tokens are securely stored.

DEVICE AUTHENTICATION

We ensure data is never exchanged without authorization. All Greenstar Digital Utilites Platform powered devices use a private key to interact with the platform for secure data exchange. We use controlled time-window authentication over encrypted API communications to reduce the risk of spoofing.
