Data security in employee apps: How Humanstars protects your company data

In today's digital working world, data security is one of the biggest challenges for companies. With sensitive information about employees, company processes and internal communications, choosing the right platform is critical. Humanstars understands these concerns and has integrated the highest security standards into the development of its employee app. Our goal: to protect your data in the best possible way while offering a powerful and user-friendly solution.

 

Why is data security so important for employee apps?

Employee apps process a variety of sensitive data, including:

  • Personal information of employees, such as shift schedules and contacts.
  • Internal communications and documents.
  • Feedback and confidential surveys.

A data leak or inadequate protection could have serious consequences - from loss of trust to legal repercussions. It is therefore crucial to choose an app that both complies with legal requirements and implements technological best practices.

 

How does Humanstars protect your company data?

1. server location in Germany: maximum control and security

All data processed via the Humanstars app is stored exclusively on servers in Germany. This means that

  • Compliance with the GDPRThe General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) guarantees that your data is protected in accordance with the strictest European standards.
  • High security standardsGerman data centers meet comprehensive requirements for physical and digital security.
  • Data sovereigntyYou retain full control over your data.

2. ISO 27001-certified infrastructure

Humanstars works with servers and data centers that comply with ISO 27001 certification - a globally recognized standard for information security management systems (ISMS). This certification ensures that:

  • security risks are regularly identified, evaluated and minimized.
  • Technical and organizational measures are always up to date.
  • your data is not only securely stored, but also protected against unauthorized access.

3. encrypted communication and data storage

We use the latest encryption technologies to protect your data:

  • End-to-end encryptionAll data exchanged between the app and the server is protected by encryption. This keeps information hidden from third parties.
  • Encrypted data storageSensitive information is stored in encrypted form so that even in the unlikely event of unauthorized access, no usable data is available.

4. two-factor authentication (2FA)

Access security is another important aspect. Humanstars offers an optional two-factor authenticationwhich ensures that only authorized persons have access to the app. This significantly minimizes the risk of unauthorized access.

5. regular security updates and penetration tests

  • security updates to respond to new threats.
  • penetration tests in which external experts check the security of the platform. This ensures that Humanstars remains reliable even in a dynamic threat environment.
