Security at SIMS

User confidence and data security is critical to everything to we do, and we are proud to exceed industry standards when it comes to protecting your institution and students.

SIMS certifies the security of our application, database, and infrastructure. The master admin, who holds the subscription, has control over who has access and what they are able to do on the system.

Our 4 Pillars of Security
Safety

1

Give parents peace of mind
Parents can rest assured that oneclass is a trusted, verified custodian of their children’s data. When a school enters into partnership with oneclass, parents and students are invited into the secure system, and their information entered with consent. We have several measures in place to prevent unauthorised access to data

Privacy

2

You own your data, we keep it safe
Our support staff cannot access your information unless you invite them to help. We do not sell student or school data.

We also do not collect, maintain, use or share students’ personal information beyond that needed for authorized educational or school purposes, or as authorized by the parent or school. Please see our privacy policy for further information

Availability

3

Always on. Always running
We understand that in order for a cloud service to be useful, it has to be available. We ensure that our services are built upon a solid platform of core technologies, and we are proactive in hunting down possible points of failure. We keep backup copies of your data and stress-test relentlessly.

Any planned maintenance that would disrupt service is announced weeks in advance and downtime is kept to a minimum

Quality

4

Meeting World Class Standards
SIMS’s Quality Assurance team works with our development teams to ship features quickly and safely.

We make sure every part of our system meets strict quality standards.

We have a lot to say about security

One learning platform, limitless functionality. SIMS is the enterprise learning management system engineered to support the most demanding and complex learning ecosystems

1

Secure, industry-leading infrastructure

Our infrastructure is provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), which offers industry-leading security with restricted physical access to data-centers and robust online access controls. More information is available on the AWS Cloud Compliance documents..
2

Availability, uptime, and processing speed

SIMS systems have been designed for maximum uptime and speed by utilizing servers at multiple physical hosting locations.
3

Passwords

We do not have access to your passwords as they are encrypted and never stored in our databases in an unencrypted format. You are responsible, though, for choosing a strong password and keeping it secret.

Data safety and disaster recovery

Through our partnership with AWS, SIMS maintains multiple, geographically-separated data and infrastructure replicas and will continue to work should any one of those data centers fail unexpectedly.
5

Security monitoring

Our security team continuously monitors security systems, event logs, notifications and alerts from all systems to identify and manage threats. SIMS also regularly undergoes both internal and external network penetration tests and third party code reviews.

Regular updates and innovation

We are constantly enhancing SIMS, delivering new features, performance improvements, and better user experience. New releases of our core system are published several times a week without downtime or active involvement of our customers.
