Security/Privacy
iLab provides a secure software solution with core facility management and lab management modules. All data entered into iLab is wholly owned by the cores and institution administration. iLab treats data integrity, availability, and security very seriously, ensuring no data loss as well as accessible, portable and usable data.
Presently, specific data related to Reporting and Billing can be downloaded directly from each core’s site. There are two locations within the system where any core administrator or institution administrator can download specific data.
iLab keeps intellectual property safe and secure using state of the art technology. We work continuously with users to identify information-security needs, and with experts in hardware, application and network security to meet those needs. We protect against multiple types of security threats including:
- *Damage or unauthorized access to hardware
- *Buffer overflow attacks
- *Application or OS vulnerability and misconfiguration
- *Data malformation attacks, including SQL injection, and XSS
- *Session fixation attacks
- *Sniffing/eavesdropping
- *Network attacks
In an effort to allow all data to be accessed at any time by the core and institution, iLab is building an API that will allow the core and institution to easily download the information at any time. This API is expected to be completed in Q1 2012 and will allow the data to be accessed with a single click, which will generate a zip file containing all of the attachments stored in the system as well as one XML file that would contain all of the data in a structured format.
