ISP Data Security & Privacy — Protect Subscriber Information

Reviewed by the NowaCRM ISP operations team Last updated: May 18, 2026

Quick answer

ISPs handle sensitive subscriber information — personal details, financial records, usage patterns, and network credentials. A data breach doesn't just cost money — it destroys subscriber trust and risks regulatory penalties. NowaCRM implements enterprise-grade security at every layer to protect your data.

01

Data Encryption

All data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3). Subscriber passwords are hashed using bcrypt with per-entry salts — even database administrators cannot see plain-text passwords. API tokens, payment credentials, and sensitive configuration values are encrypted with application-level keys.

02

Access Control & Authentication

Five separate authentication guards prevent cross-role access. RBAC with 50+ granular permissions controls what each user can see and do. Session management with configurable timeouts and concurrent session limits. Password policies enforce minimum complexity requirements.

03

Tenant Data Isolation

Multi-tenant isolation is enforced at the database query level through TenantScopedModel global scopes. Every query automatically filters by tenant_id. This architectural pattern makes cross-tenant data access structurally impossible — not just policy-prohibited. Regular security audits verify isolation integrity.

04

Backup & Disaster Recovery

Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery capability. Backup data is encrypted and stored in geographically separate locations. Recovery Time Objective (RTO) under 4 hours. Recovery Point Objective (RPO) under 1 hour. Disaster recovery procedures are tested quarterly.

05

Audit & Compliance

Complete audit trail for every action on the platform. Immutable financial ledgers prevent tampering. RADIUS session logs retained per regulatory requirements. GDPR-compatible data export and deletion capabilities. Security incident response procedures documented and practiced.
