Your data is safe with us
Security is foundational to everything we build at MySchoolPad. Here's how we protect your school's data, staff, and students.
Enterprise-grade security
We apply the same security standards used by the world's most trusted platforms to protect schools of all sizes.
Encryption at Rest & in Transit
All data stored on our infrastructure is encrypted using AES-256. All data transmitted between your browser and our servers uses TLS 1.2+ — no exceptions.
Secure Cloud Infrastructure
MySchoolPad is hosted on industry-leading cloud infrastructure with built-in DDoS protection, firewalls, and automated security patching.
Access Controls
Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that users only see the data they're permitted to access. Admins, teachers, students, and parents all have strictly scoped permissions.
Audit Logging
Every sensitive action — login, data export, permission change — is logged with a timestamp, user identity, and IP address. Logs are tamper-resistant and retained for compliance.
Backups & Disaster Recovery
We perform automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery. Our disaster recovery plan is tested regularly to ensure your data is never lost.
Authentication
We support strong password policies, session management, and are actively rolling out multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all school admin accounts.
What we promise you
Beyond technical controls, these are the principles we hold ourselves accountable to.
Built for compliance
NDPR Aligned
We align with Nigeria's Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) for all personal data processing.
GDPR Principles
We apply GDPR principles for data minimisation, purpose limitation, and user rights globally.
Regular Audits
Our security posture is reviewed regularly by internal and external assessments.
Responsible disclosure
If you discover a security vulnerability in MySchoolPad, we encourage responsible disclosure. Please report it to us privately so we can address it before any public disclosure. We take all reports seriously and respond promptly.
