Overview

SmartSimple handles client data with the utmost integrity. Security features and functionality exist at all levels of our system - from administrative controls to encrypted servers which are securely housed in a SSAE 16 (SAS 70*) data center. 

Within our system, our internal system security is a two-tier model:

  • User access is firstly hierarchically-dependent and can furthermore be restricted by role; field-level security is also based on role 
  • Manager permissions control access to higher-level functions within s 

The below chart is a broad overview of our security licenses and features: 

Certifications, Memberships & Compliance
  • SmartSimple and its hosting partners are all SOC 2 certified  
  • SSAE 16 (The United States)*

Encryption & Protection
  • SHA 256 Password Encryption 
  • SSL (128/1024) Encryption
