Infrastructure

Infrastructure Security

Built on world-class cloud infrastructure with multiple layers of protection to keep your laboratory data safe and available.

Cloud Hosting

Hosted on tier-1 cloud providers with SOC 2 certified data centers, geo-redundant storage, and automatic failover across multiple availability zones.

Encryption at Rest

All data stored in LabZila is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. Database volumes, backups, and file storage are all fully encrypted with managed keys.

Encryption in Transit

All data transmitted between your browser and LabZila is protected with TLS 1.3 encryption. API communications and internal service traffic are also fully encrypted.

Network Security

Enterprise-grade firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS), DDoS mitigation, and network segmentation protect our infrastructure at every layer.

High Availability

Multi-region deployment with automated load balancing and failover ensures 99.9% uptime. Real-time health monitoring detects and resolves issues before they impact your work.

24/7 Monitoring

Continuous infrastructure monitoring with automated alerting, log aggregation, and anomaly detection ensures potential threats are identified and addressed in real time.

Application Layer

Application Security

LabZila follows security-first development practices aligned with OWASP guidelines, ensuring that every feature is built with protection against common vulnerabilities and attack vectors.

Authentication

Secure password hashing with bcrypt, multi-factor authentication (MFA), SSO integration via SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0, and configurable password policies.

Authorization

Granular role-based access control (RBAC) with least-privilege principles, field-level permissions, and contextual access policies per laboratory or department.

Input Validation

Comprehensive server-side input validation, parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection, output encoding against XSS, and CSRF token protection on all forms.

OWASP Top 10

Our development practices address every category of the OWASP Top 10, with automated static analysis (SAST), dependency scanning, and regular code reviews.

Data Protection

Comprehensive Data Protection

Your laboratory data deserves the highest level of protection. LabZila implements multiple safeguards to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

End-to-End Encryption

AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. Sensitive fields like patient identifiers and proprietary formulas receive additional application-layer encryption.

Automated Backups

Continuous incremental backups with point-in-time recovery. Full snapshots are taken daily and stored in geographically separate regions with 90-day retention.

Disaster Recovery

Documented and tested disaster recovery plan with RTO under 4 hours and RPO under 1 hour. Cross-region replication ensures business continuity under any scenario.

Data Isolation

Tenant data is logically isolated at the database level with strict access controls, ensuring no cross-tenant data leakage in our multi-tenant architecture.

Data Portability

Export your data at any time in standard formats. You always own your data, and we provide tools to migrate it if you ever choose to leave.

Data Retention & Deletion

Configurable retention policies per data type. When data is deleted, it is permanently removed from all primary and backup systems within the defined retention window.

Compliance

Regulatory Compliance

LabZila is built to meet the strictest laboratory regulatory requirements, helping your lab stay audit-ready at all times.

ISO/IEC 17025

Full support for ISO 17025 requirements including method validation tracking, measurement uncertainty, traceability, and competence management workflows.

GLP (Good Laboratory Practice)

Built-in GLP controls for study management, raw data integrity, standard operating procedures, quality assurance oversight, and archival of study records.

GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice)

Support for GMP-regulated environments including batch record management, deviation handling, CAPA workflows, and validated system documentation.

21 CFR Part 11

Complete electronic records and electronic signatures compliance with audit trails, system validation documentation, access controls, and tamper-evident record keeping.

GDPR

Full GDPR compliance with data processing agreements, right to erasure, data minimization, consent management, and breach notification procedures within 72 hours.

SOC 2 Type II

Annual SOC 2 Type II audits verify our security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy controls meet the highest industry standards.

Access Control

Granular, configurable access controls ensure that every user only has access to the data and functions they need.

  • Role-Based Access (RBAC) -- Define custom roles with fine-grained permissions at the module, record, and field level.
  • Multi-Factor Authentication -- Enforce MFA via authenticator apps, SMS, or hardware tokens for all users or specific roles.
  • Session Management -- Configurable session timeouts, concurrent session limits, and automatic lockout after failed login attempts.
  • IP Whitelisting -- Restrict access to your LabZila instance from approved IP addresses or VPN ranges only.
  • SSO Integration -- Seamless single sign-on via SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, and Active Directory / LDAP integration.

Audit Trail

A tamper-proof, comprehensive audit trail captures every action taken in the system for full traceability and regulatory compliance.

  • Complete Activity Logging -- Every create, read, update, and delete operation is recorded with who, what, when, and why.
  • Data Integrity -- Cryptographic hashing ensures audit records cannot be altered or deleted, meeting 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
  • Electronic Signatures -- Legally binding e-signatures with meaning, date/time stamp, and unique user identification.
  • Change Reason Capture -- Users must provide a reason for changes to critical data fields, maintaining full traceability.
  • Searchable History -- Filter and search audit logs by user, date range, action type, or record to quickly prepare for audits.

Incident Response

Our dedicated security team follows a structured incident response plan to detect, contain, and resolve security events with minimal impact to your operations.

1

Detection -- Automated monitoring and threat intelligence feeds

2

Containment -- Immediate isolation and impact assessment

3

Eradication -- Root cause analysis and threat removal

4

Recovery -- Service restoration and verification

5

Post-Incident -- Lessons learned and preventive measures

Affected customers are notified within 72 hours of a confirmed breach, as required by GDPR and industry best practices.

Penetration Testing

We engage independent, third-party security firms to conduct regular penetration tests against our platform, validating our defenses against real-world attack scenarios.

  • Annual comprehensive penetration tests by CREST-certified assessors
  • Quarterly automated vulnerability scanning of all external and internal surfaces
  • Web application testing covering OWASP Top 10 and business logic flaws
  • API security testing for authentication, authorization, and data exposure
  • Network infrastructure and cloud configuration assessments
  • Executive summary reports available to enterprise customers upon request

Responsible Disclosure

We maintain a responsible disclosure program. Security researchers can report vulnerabilities to security@labzila.com and are acknowledged for their contributions.
