Adeptia Connect provides a secure end-to-end encrypted environment for the data that is transferred and exchanged between the companies and its partners. Adeptia has multiple features that are implemented makes the data secure right from the implementation until the transaction is complete. This further ensures that all the data transacted through Adeptia is secured and does not move out. Following is the list of security features of Adeptia Connect.

Certificates

Certain Adeptia Connect Connectors use certificates in order to ensure security while transmitting data across a communication protocol. Connectors such as FTPS, SFTP, HTTPS, and many others require the use of certificates in order to encrypt the data and to verify the digital signature of the application sending the data. The Certificate Component can use an existing key obtained from a certificate authority such as VeriSign or a key generated by Adeptia.

Encryption is the process of encoding the data in such a way that it can be read only by the authorized users. The purpose of encryption is to prevent third parties from recovering the original data. In an encryption process, the data (referred to as plaintext) is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, turning it into an unreadable ciphertext. This is usually done with the use of an encryption key, which specifies how the data is to be encoded. An adversary may be able to see the ciphertext but should not be able to decode the original data. An authorized party, however, is able to decode the ciphertext using a decryption algorithm which usually requires a secret decryption key. The adversaries do not have an access to this key. An encryption process usually needs a key-generation algorithm to randomly produce keys.

Adeptia enables you to apply encryption and decryption to the source and target files being transported via Adeptia Server. You can encrypt the source file to be sent and in a similar way, you can decrypt an encrypted file received via Adeptia Server.

Data Security

There is no data stored on Adeptia and the local copy of the data is deleted automatically when the data transfer is completed. Even when a temporary local copy of business data is stored on the hard drive, Adeptia supports encryption-at-rest to ensure that data is encrypted .On-Premise Data – Data that processes through an 'On Premise' Adeptia Secure Engine will never actually flow through cloud data center. The data is stored behind the firewall on a customer server where the Connection is executed and is transported directly to the Secure Engine configured behind your company's firewall. (explained above).


Summary

Adeptia takes security very seriously and has gone to great lengths to ensure the integrity of customer data. 

  • The application is architected to not to save a local copy of the customer data. If data does not exist, it cannot be compromised
  • Customers may select to utilize dedicated servers for processing of their data, this ensures their data is at no time in the multi-tenant environment
  • All web access to Adeptia Connect is thru secure HTTPS connections
  • All access to sources and targets is thru secure SSL connections
  • Adeptia Connect is architected to prevent attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, OWASP Top 10 risks and many others.
  • Adeptia utilizes a third party, independent company to do regular penetration and security vulnerability assessment tests.
