Home/Security at Edutris — How We Protect School Data
Trust & security
How Edutris protects your school's data
A school's data — students, families, fees, health records — is among the most sensitive information any organisation holds. This page describes, specifically and without marketing gloss, the controls Edutris uses to protect it. If a control isn't listed here, we don't claim it.
Built around India's DPDP Act 2023
Edutris is designed for the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023: schools direct how their students' data is used, parents see their own children's information and nothing else, and data handling is structured so the school can meet its obligations as the data fiduciary. Student and guardian data is processed for running the school — attendance, fees, academics, communication — not for advertising.
The controls, specifically
Encryption in transit
All traffic between devices and Edutris servers is protected with SSL/TLS — logins, the parent app, and every API call.
Role-based access
Seven role-based portals with granular permissions: a teacher sees their classes, the office sees what it administers, parents see only their own children.
Per-school data isolation
Multi-tenant architecture with every query scoped to the school. A trust's campuses share an account, never each other's raw data.
Activity audit logs
Changes leave a trail, so the school can always answer who changed what, and when.
Automated backups
Scheduled database backups with rotation, so the school's record survives hardware failure or mistakes.
Input validation throughout
Server-side validation and scoped queries as standard engineering practice, not an afterthought.
Reliability, stated honestly
Edutris is cloud-hosted with always-on health monitoring and an internal uptime target. We deliberately say target, not guarantee — we don't sell an SLA we can't evidence, and vendors who promise '100% uptime' are telling you about their marketing, not their infrastructure.
Support is real people on email and phone, Monday to Friday, 9 AM–6 PM IST, in English and Hindi — familiar with Indian school workflows, not a generic call centre.
What we don't claim
You'll notice this page has no certification badges. Edutris does not currently hold ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification, and we won't display badges we haven't earned. What we do offer is the specific, verifiable set of controls above — and straight answers to any security question during your evaluation. Ask us the hard ones at the demo.
Security questions to ask any school-software vendor
"Where does our data live, and who can see it?"
You should get a specific answer about isolation between schools and role-based access inside yours.
"What happens if we leave?"
Your data is yours. Edutris supports exporting your records — ask for the specifics in your evaluation.
"Show me the audit trail."
If a vendor can't show who changed a student's marks and when, the register isn't really a system of record.
"What's your backup and recovery story?"
Automated, scheduled, rotated backups — and a straight answer on restore.
Frequently asked questions
How does Edutris approach India's DPDP Act 2023?
Edutris is built around the DPDP Act 2023 — role-based access, per-school data isolation, encryption in transit, audit logs and processing under the school's direction as data fiduciary. Schools remain the controllers of their students' data.
Who owns the school's data?
The school does. Edutris processes it to run the school's operations, and supports exporting your records if you ever leave.
Does Edutris have ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification?
Not currently — and we won't show badges we haven't earned. This page lists the specific controls we do operate: encryption in transit, role-based access, tenant isolation, audit logging and automated backups.
Is there an uptime guarantee?
We operate to an internal uptime target with always-on health monitoring. We deliberately call it a target rather than a contractual SLA, because we'd rather be precise than impressive.
