SECURITY & ACCESS

Privacy-conscious design for finance work

Finance records are sensitive. IST Finance includes role controls, authenticated workspaces and secure-session settings, while the deployment operator remains responsible for the hosting infrastructure.

Access permissions

Users must sign in and permissions restrict which finance functions and company information they may use.

Company separation

Business operations are scoped to the associated company, with owner and finance roles controlling relevant actions.

Session and form safeguards

Production deployments require HTTPS session cookies. Forms include CSRF defenses and login rate limiting.

Hosting responsibilities

Use HTTPS, protect environment variables, maintain encrypted backups, test restores, and monitor access logs.

Financial audit history

Audit trails and restrictions on changing posted journal records support review, although the database administrator retains direct access.

No software can promise absolute security. Deployments must be tested and maintained by their operators.
