Ragic has implemented various measures to ensure data security. The following will explain from multiple perspectives: certification, compliance, physical security, data storage security, network and system security, application architecture security, personnel security, backup and disaster prevention, and on-premise servers.
ISO/IEC 27001 is a global standard for managing information security, introduced by ISO and IEC in 2005 and updated in 2013. It provides guidelines for creating and continually improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS) to enhance the security of organizational information assets.
Ragic has been certified with the ISO/IEC 27001 :2013 standard. We implement information security protection and prevention measures following relevant governance methods. You may refer to this page for relevant information and click here to download the certificate.

Regular Security Updates: Our system administrator monitor security updates very closely and apply patches to deflect zero day attacks.
Data Access Control: Nobody, including system administrators at Ragic, can access your data without your permission. When providing technical support, we can only see your database design, but not your data by default.

You can host Ragic on your own servers if necessary, provided that your organization have the ability to maintain your own servers. For more information please click here.
With Ragic's backup and restore feature, you can move your hosted account to your on-premise server any time, or move your on-premise account to hosted accounts.
We strongly recommend companies to only use on-premise servers if they have an experienced IT crew who understands how to maintain and keep a server safe and secure.
