2. SECURITY OVERVIEW
ONE SOLUTION – IN THE CLOUD OR ON-PREMISES
Security is an important part of the Modulus Enterprise Class (M-EC) solution. Every precaution is taken to ensure
installations and their data cannot be compromised. Modulus Enterprise Class uses a multi-layered network approach,
strict communication restrictions, and dedicated resources to provide one of the most secure environments possible.
BENEFITS & FEATURES
• No application host is exposed directly to the internet.
• The load balancer is the only entry point inside the private
network. Only HTTP(s) traffic on ports 80 and 443 is allowed.
All other traffic is rejected.
• Firewall rules are specifically created for each server’s purpose.
Ports are only opened to internal endpoints that require access.
• The load balancers provides DOS protection by rejecting
connections that exceed abusive throughput thresholds.
• Application instances are each on dedicated virtual networks and
do not share or have access to resources from other instances.
BENEFITS & FEATURES
• No resources are shared between M-EC installations.
All servers are dedicated instances.
• Unique SSH keys are generated for each installation.
Keys created for one installation cannot be used to access
resources for another.
• SSH access to servers can only be done using key files.
There is no password access.
• Each server has SSH abuse protected that rejects
connections and mitigates brute-force attacks.

On-Premises
LOAD BALANCER INSTANCES HOST INSTANCES DATABASE
With Modulus Enterprise Class, resources in different data
centers can be assigned to regions so you can deploy to specific
subsets of servers. You’ll also have the ability to designate where
the data is stored and where the application is run.
BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT
To help ensure that you have a platform that you can trust and
on which you can rely, Modulus will sign Business Associate
Agreements in accordance with HIPAA requirements.
DATA PRIVACY AND RETENTION
Modulus takes data privacy extremely seriously.
• All data is regularly backed up to ensure seamless
disaster recovery.
• We can limit server access to any subset of employees
or engineers.
• Access logs are available for auditing purposes and
compliance.
• To maximize security, all data can be stored on
encrypted hard drives.
You can run Modulus on dedicated hardware in the location
of your choosing whether on-premises, in a dedicated cloud
environment, or a hybrid of the two. This secure, dedicated
environment can be the foundation of compliance fulfillment.
With Modulus Enterprise Class, all servers are dedicated
instances; no resources are shared between M-EC installations.
In addition, unique SSH keys are generated for each installation.
Keys created for one installation cannot be used to access
resources for another.
COMPLIANT CLOUD RESOURCES
With respect to Amazon AWS cloud computing, Modulus
enhances your organization’s ownership of compliance
initiatives related to your data and information housed on AWS
infrastructure. You’ll still have the AWS assurance of robust
security and data protection—uncompromised. More about AWS
compliance can be found at aws.amazon.com/compliance.
