Security & FERPA Compliance

Your data stays on your servers. AES-256 encryption protects every record.

FERPA Compliance

Complete audit logging of every access to student data — who accessed what, when, and from where. Configurable data retention policies, access controls by role, and data minimization principles enforced at the application level.

AES-256-GCM Encryption

All student PII encrypted at rest — names, medical records, IEP data, and contact information. HMAC-SHA256 hashed lookups allow searching encrypted fields without decrypting the database. Key rotation without downtime.

Guardian Zero-Trust Tokenization

Third-party vendors never see real student data. Guardian generates unique cryptographic tokens per vendor — if one vendor is breached, no other vendor's tokens are compromised. PII never leaves the school network.

Authentication & Access Control

BCrypt-12 password hashing, JWT token authentication with rotation, 8 role levels (Admin, Principal, Registrar, Counselor, Teacher, Secretary, Nurse, Data Entry), 3-attempt lockout with 15-minute cooldown, and 30-minute session timeout.

OWASP Protection

Input sanitization on all user-facing fields, rate limiting per IP (1,000 req/hour authenticated, 100 unauthenticated), CORS restrictions in production, dependency vulnerability scanning, and Content Security Policy headers.

On-Premise Data Sovereignty

All data stays on school or district servers — never touches external cloud infrastructure. Offline-first architecture with local H2 database means the system works during internet outages. Soft-delete architecture ensures no records are ever permanently lost.

Backend & IT Tools

Included with the suite for deployment, management, and security

Server Manager

Desktop administration tool for managing Heronix SIS Server instances. YAML configuration, service monitoring, and server health checks.

Guardian Monitor

Desktop admin tool for real-time monitoring of the Guardian Security Perimeter. View tokenization activity, audit logs, security events, and vendor access patterns across the network.

Installer

Guided deployment tool for installing and configuring the full Heronix Suite on school or district servers. Handles dependencies, database setup, and initial configuration.

uMonitor

System performance monitor with 7 panels: Overview, Performance, Processes, Network, Ports, CPU-ID, and Diagnostics. Native Windows API integration with near-zero resource overhead.
