Access Control and Security

Zaphire sets a new standard for security in building monitoring and control. As a cloud-based platform developed from the ground up with native cloud technology, Zaphire delivers high uptime, scalability, and maximum protection against digital threats.

With a documented SLA guarantee of 99.95% uptime – and actual figures exceeding 99.995% – you can rely on the system always being available when you need it.

Highest Standards of Data Protection

All communication is handled through encrypted APIs (HTTPS, TLS 1.2+, Forward Secrecy ciphers).
No VPN-based communication – eliminating common vulnerabilities and ensuring secure access.
Personal data is always stored in encrypted form.
Continuous updates quickly patch known vulnerabilities.
Built-in mechanisms prevent DDoS traffic from affecting operations or spreading into customer networks.

Secure Network Architecture

Zaphire enforces strict network and infrastructure principles:

Dedicated VLANs for each building or facility to ensure maximum isolation.
Firewalls block all incoming ports to prevent unauthorized access.
No weak shortcuts – security is designed into the architecture itself.

Access Control with Full Transparency

Each area in Zaphire has its own permission management and requires an invitation for access. Users are assigned role-based rights, giving customers full control:

Viewer: Access to dashboards, reports, and energy consumption data.
Developer: Ability to adjust meter definitions, reporting parameters, and dashboards.
Administrator: Full control, including managing user access.
