FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions security and IT teams ask most during a review.
8 answers
Will my data be shared with third parties?
Customer data is processed only by the authorized subprocessors listed on the Subprocessors page, strictly for service delivery. Institutional data is never shared with third parties for training or marketing. All subprocessors operate under data processing agreements.
Is data encrypted at rest and in transit?
Yes. All data is encrypted at rest by default using Azure-managed encryption, and protected in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher.
How is customer data segregated?
CampusMind integrates with each institution’s own Microsoft Entra ID tenant. Sign-in from outside the institution’s tenant fails at authentication, and customer data is logically segregated per tenant.
Is MFA required for production access?
Yes. All administrative access to the production Azure environment requires Microsoft Entra ID authentication with MFA enforced through conditional access policies.
What application protection is in place?
Azure network security controls, Entra ID authentication in front of the application, Microsoft Defender across the environment, and automated security scanning.
Do you maintain a risk management program?
Yes. CampusMind operates under Royal Cyber’s information security management system, including a maintained risk register, periodic risk assessments and management review.
How are security incidents managed?
Security events are monitored through Microsoft Defender and Sentinel. Incidents follow a documented procedure covering triage, containment, customer communication and post-incident review.
Is CampusMind FERPA compliant?
CampusMind is designed for US higher education and handles student education records in line with FERPA. A completed HECVAT assessment and VPAT report are available for institutional review.
