PeakAvenue uses Microsoft Azure™, one of the most secure cloud platforms on the market. The security architecture of the e1ns Cloud uses the latest standards and technologies.

A modern microservices architecture ensures that the system is scalable and robust. Should a microservice fail or require too many resources, not the entire system is affected and an analysis of the problem and its correction is quickly possible. Security features of API Gateways are used for microservices to specifically identify potential attacks.

Each customer works on their own database, which is operated with a database-specific service. This means that customer data is protected separately and is also physically separated.

PeakAvenue complies with the current data protection requirements. Data protection requirements according to DSGVO are regulated in the order processing contract (AV contract).

PeakAvenue has no access to the contents of your system.

The security team regularly conducts penetration tests (e.g. according to OWASP) for e1ns Cloud.

Your data is stored exclusively on servers of Microsoft Azure™ and is regularly backed up.

Microsoft Azure™ offers cyber security at the highest level and enjoys worldwide acceptance among companies.

HTTPS-protected communication between clients and the servers is ensured by using the current TLS 1.2/1.3 standard. Data is transparently encrypted and decrypted in the cloud using AES-256 encryption, one of the strongest block ciphers available.

Regular backups are performed to secure your data.

If you wish to cancel your e1ns Cloud subscription, please e-mail us. You will receive a form that you have to fill out, sign and return to PeakAvenue.
