Cyber Security

A cloud-based RTO Student Management System that provides Cyber Security for all data within. 

RTO Data Cloud is protected by a web application firewall. This is an important layer of system security.

The web application firewall applies strict security rules that control bot traffic and block common attack patterns such as brute force, SQL injection or cross-site scripting. The firewall also applies geo-blocking and blocks all traffic from outside of Australia. Access outside of Australia can be arranged under specifically agreed arrangements. 

Security

RTO Data Cloud is hosted only in Australia in a highly secure data centre protected behind multiple layers of physical and virtual security.

RTO Data Cloud is hosted in Sydney Australia with Amazon Web Services within the highly regarded Equinix SY3 Sydney IBX Data Center. This is one of the most secure data storage centres in Australia. Data is protected behind a world class firewall and is encrypted whilst being stored and in transit.

The web application firewall applies strict security rules that control bot traffic and block common attack patterns such as brute force, SQL injection or cross-site scripting. The firewall also applies geo-blocking and blocks unwanted traffic from outside of Australia.

RTO Data Cloud may only be accessed via a valid strong password that must include a combination of upper/lower case letters, numbers and special characters. The password during the log-in process must be verified by Two Factor Authentication (2FA). All of your data is secured by backup and recovery arrangements. RTO Data Cloud undertakes a full backup of each client’s individual database twice daily.

RTO Data Cloud undertakes a full system snapshot (image) every two hours. This snapshot establishes a full system recovery point if the system were to be disrupted. This recovery can be deployed within minutes to the last available recovery point. It provides 12 separate full system recovery points every day and is stored for up to two days. We test and improve our system security continuously. Your data is secure with RTO Data Cloud.
