SherpaDesk Security Overview through Azure
Keeping your company's data secure is a top priority at SherpaDesk. Our goal is to provide a secure environment, while also being mindful of application performance and the overall user experience.
SherpaDesk is hosted on Microsoft Azure, a highly scalable cloud computing platform with end-to-end security and privacy features built in. Our team takes additional pro-active measures to maintain a secure infrastructure and application environment.
Windows Azure™ is a cloud service operating system that serves as the development, service hosting and service management environment for the Windows Azure platform. Windows Azure provides developers with on-demand compute and storage to host, scale, and manage web applications on the Internet through Microsoft® data centers. With Windows Azure, Microsoft hosts data and programs belonging to customers. Windows Azure must, therefore, address information security challenges above and beyond traditional on or off-premises IT scenarios. This document describes the array of controls Windows Azure customers can use to achieve their required level of security, and determine if the capabilities and controls are suitable for their unique requirements.
