Email communication is not only about transmitting information but also about making it highly secure. The same concept also applies while migrating e-mails. Migration of e-mails can be due to various reasons. Organizations may need to change their mail service providers. Precious data also needs to be backed up regularly to avoid identity theft, data loss, and so forth. Migrating or backing up emails, therefore, needs to be secure and maintain integrity. It does not serve any purpose if a third party is able to intercept the communication while migrating the data. Sensitive information can be compromised or given away to strangers in a matter of minutes, or trade secrets of a company might be blown wide open. It is very essential that mail migrating applications run like clockwork as it deals with sensitive data. EdbMails ensures safe and secure migration of information to Office 365. Let’s see how this migration solution ensures the safety of your data.
Here are some security features of EdbMails Office 365 Migration tool.
1. No loss of data during migration
During the migration process, you can move the entire data from the source to the destination with a secure connection, and the source data will not be changed after migration. EdbMails ensures that there is no change to data at the source server.
2. Credentials are encrypted
EdbMails ensures that all the credentials you enter during its operation are securely encrypted and used only to achieve the migration goals set for it. This ensures tension-free migration.
3. EdbMails is ISO 27001:2013 certified
EdbMails follows the Information Security Management Standards ISO 27001 certification. With ISO, it is possible to maintain the highest level of information security. Certification of ISO/IEC 27001 is suitable for both small and large organizations for better internal management.
4. OAuth 2.0 / TLS Encryption Authentication
EdbMails uses OAuth 2.0 secured authentication and secure Microsoft APIs for migration. A TLS-encrypted secure connection is made between tenants. EdbMails does not store any user credentials on its servers.
5. No third party involved during migration
There is no third-party tool/service involved in data migration operations, which makes it a one-to-one communication. EdbMails Office 365 migration tool supports direct migration from the source to the target server. User data is not stored on intermediate servers or channels.
6. Supports multi-factor authentication (MFA)
This is an additional layer of security to access data, and the best way to provide high-level security. For example, when enabled, one must authenticate their account on their mobile phone after they have logged in on the website. A hacker will not have immediate access to the account, as he need to have the mobile device to perform the final authentication.
7. It is GDPR compliant
The General Data Protection Regulation mandates businesses to protect the personal data and privacy of EU citizens. A non-compliance would make companies cough up a hefty fine. The EdbMails desktop application acts as an agent for the migration operation. The migration runs within the premises of your local computer and your server. The data is never used or saved on EdbMails’ servers.
8. AES 256-bit military-grade encryption
EdbMails uses AES 256-bit encryption — a high-security, military-grade standard — to protect your data throughout the migration process. Whether transferring data across networks or storing it temporarily for staged or incremental transfers, your information remains fully encrypted. All interactions between EdbMails and your Office 365 environment occur over secure, encrypted channels. This layered security model ensures data confidentiality and restricts access strictly to authorized users.
