ChalkBooks Security Policy

ChalkBooks is built with security in mind, utilizing strict security practices and constant monitoring to ensure the platform is safe and free from potential threats.

Security Best Practices

ChalkBooks employs a number of security best practices to protect the system from external web attacks. One of the key measures in place is Cloudflare, a leading web security service that provides additional protection against common web threats. This ensures that the platform is always up-to-date with the latest security protocols and can proactively mitigate potential threats.

In addition, ChalkBooks enforces password strength best practices, requiring users to create strong and complex passwords to prevent unauthorized access. All passwords are encrypted, making them invisible to the internal ChalkBooks team and ensuring user data is always protected.

Finally, ChalkBoosk relies on Django for its backend, which has been around and adopted widely for over 20 years. It has a robust security framework and set of features described here: (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/topics/security/)

Data Security

ChalkBooks takes data security seriously and uses the highest level of encryption on the public cloud for sensitive data. All data is encrypted at rest, which means it is protected even when it is not actively accessed. This ensures that sensitive information, such as personal details, fundraising data, and financial records, is kept safe and secure.

Periodic Security Reviews

At ChalkBooks, we take the security of our platform seriously. To ensure that our users' data is always safe, we perform quarterly security reviews with the help of external experts. During these reviews, our team works closely with experienced security professionals to identify any vulnerabilities in our system and develop strategies to address them. This process allows us to stay up-to-date with the latest threats and ensure our platform remains secure against even the most sophisticated attacks.

We understand that security is a top concern for our users, and we are committed to taking all necessary measures to protect their data. By conducting regular security reviews and working with industry-leading experts, we can provide our users with peace of mind and the assurance that their information is always safe with ChalkBooks.

AI Data Processing and Security

At ChalkBooks, we understand the importance of data privacy and security. We use Microsoft Azure's Open AI implementation to ensure that all personally identifiable information (PII) is protected and kept safe.

Microsoft is committed to providing a secure and reliable cloud computing platform, and Azure has been designed with a number of key security features to protect customer data. These include:

Physical security: Azure data centers are protected by multiple physical security measures, including video surveillance, access controls, and perimeter fencing.

Network security: Azure provides robust security measures to prevent unauthorized access and protect against distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.

Identity and access management: Azure's identity and access management tools allow administrators to control user access and permissions, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive data.

Data encryption: Azure provides industry-standard encryption for data in transit and at rest, helping to protect against data breaches and unauthorized access.

By leveraging these security features as part of our Open AI implementation, we can provide our users with the highest level of data protection while still delivering the advanced AI capabilities they need to succeed.
