Privacy and Security: How do I secure a Hub?
- KZ Hart
The need for Cyber Security is making its way into the general consciousness of business owners and with it questions about digital platforms including the IHUBApp Digital Experience Platform. This article will provide you a highlight of the joint responsibilities (ours and yours) involved in practicing good cyber-hygiene.
Understanding the Cyber Security Battle
The reality is that Cyber Security is a non-stop battle that requires everyone to be diligent that includes our team, our vendors, and our customers to be practicing good cyber-hygiene.
Cyber security consultants teach that the greatest risk to organizations is always their own people who are uneducated. That’s why we promote and offer to InspireHUB customers FREE security training available at https://www.wizer-training.com/
We recommend that you make it mandatory for everyone on your team to complete this training immediately.
No matter the efforts we put in at InspireHUB, if your team doesn't know some of the basic principles of not clicking on links, using a VPN while out, etc. it will put your work at risk.
How InspireHUB approaches Privacy and Security
We have made privacy and security a main priority for our company since 2019. We do something called "privacy by design" as we build our platform and we have put in processes for our development team that ensures security issues are always escalated to the top.
In 2020, InspireHUB obtained our CIS Benchmark compliance as a result of our work which included ensuring our code base is updated but also ensuring our company operations support and promote privacy and security .

Our platform is hosted on MS Azure which also provides another level of security.
