Privacy & Security
ThinMind.com provides state-of-the-art security for our systems and data. Our top priority is ensuring that our environments are as secure and reliable as possible. This section outlines our approach to privacy and security. If you have additional questions, please contact our Support Team for additional details.
 
Physical Security
Our production systems are located in North Carolina. The systems are located in a SAS70 Type II certified data center that provides 24-hour physical security, fully redundant electrical power, fully redundant internet connectivity, and other backup equipment designed to keep our servers up and running. Our infrastructure team is the only group of employees given direct access to the production system, specifically for: systems management, maintenance, monitoring, and backups.
 
Reliability
All networking components, SSL accelerators, load balancers, and web servers are configured for full redundancy. All customer data is stored on RAID disk arrays, designed for hi-availability systems. All customer data is backed up routinely throughout each day. In addition, all customer data is backed up to a tape library on a nightly basis. Backup tapes are moved to secure, fire-resistant, off-site storage on a regular basis.
 
Infrastucture Security
Our systems are protected by multiple firewalls and monitored by intrusion detection systems. Our infrastructure team also monitors system logs to proactively identify any security threats or attacks. Finally, a third-party firm also monitors our security configurations for changes, vulnerabilities, and regularly conducts threat assessments.
 
Data Encryption
Our systems use the most secure encryption products to protect customer data and communications. This includes 128-bit VeriSign SSL Certification and 1024-bit RSA public keys. Your browser displays a lock icon indicating that data is fully shielded from access while in transit.
 
Data Backups
All data is backed up nightly. Backups are then taken offsite and secured by Iron Mountain. These measures are a safeguard to ensure that your information will be safe.
 
Data Access Security
Our application model enforces data level security with each request to prevent one ThinMind account from accessing another. This data level security is applied throughout your user session on the system.
 
Application Security Policy
We recognize that every company has unique security guidelines provided by their IT organizations. As a result, ThinMind allows you to configure 20+ security options geared towards enforcing these guidelines.
 
Application Security Roles
Each ThinMind account has the ability to create unique application security roles. The suite provides options to control menu level options, data access, and report / export access.
 
User Authentication
Anyone accessing ThinMind must have a valid username and password to gain access. This information is encrypted via SSL while in transit. You have full control over who has access to your system using the Security Admin Tools provided in the ThinMind application.
