Data Security

Cloud computing, by its nature, raises concerns about potential security issues. Data security has always been one of DNASTAR’s highest priorities, which is why we have implemented a secure Cloud framework that keeps our users’ data and results safe.

DNASTAR uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) as the supporting infrastructure for all our DNASTAR Cloud software applications. AWS’s world-class, highly protected data centers utilize state-of-the-art security monitoring and multi-factor access control systems.

The AWS virtual infrastructure has been designed to provide optimum availability while ensuring complete customer privacy and data segregation. AWS has met numerous federal and private security certification requirements, including FedRAMP*. The document below explains, in detail, how DNASTAR builds on the AWS framework to keep your data private and safe, from initial Cloud communications to long-term results storage.

If you have further questions about the security of DNASTAR’s Cloud-based applications, please contact DNASTAR’s technical support.
