Our software is designed with the highest standards of data security to protect confidential and sensitive information. We use end-to-end encryption to ensure that all data transmitted through our platform is secure.
Additionally, our system adheres to industry standards like HIPAA to ensure that sensitive information about children, families, and foster care providers is kept private and compliant with all regulatory requirements. Regular security audits are conducted to stay ahead of potential vulnerabilities and keep the invaluable data related to your work safe.

We offer robust access control features to ensure that only authorized users can access sensitive information. Our software uses role-based access controls (RBAC) to assign different permissions to users based on their roles within the organization. This allows for granular control over what each user can view, modify, or manage. For example, when working with other agencies or affiliated social workers not directly tied to your organization, you can use SAM to restrict their control and access to specific cases and families.
With SAM, administrators also have the ability to customize user access to match the specific needs and responsibilities of each team member, ensuring both security and operational efficiency.
