Rayven places security at the forefront of its platform, ensuring that data is protected at every point within the IoT environment. Our proprietary security architecture and the use of Microsoft Azure Security features provide a robust framework for
Overview
Security is fundamental to the Rayven platform. Whether you’re managing IoT devices, handling sensitive operational data, or deploying AI-driven workflows, Rayven ensures your data is protected across every layer — in transit, at rest, and during use. This is achieved through a combination of Rayven’s proprietary security framework and Microsoft Azure Security integration, delivering enterprise-grade protection for critical environments.
How Rayven Protects Data
1. Private Cloud Hosting
Rayven solutions are hosted in a secure, private cloud infrastructure. This ensures all data processing and storage occurs in isolated environments, free from exposure to multi-tenant risks.
2. Data Encryption in Transit
Rayven applies encryption protocols across every connection layer:
-
Device-to-Cloud: SHA-256 with RSA encryption (device-dependent)
-
Device Authentication: Devices are validated using unique keys
-
End-User to Cloud: Enforced 256-bit SSL encryption on all user interfaces (PCs, tablets, mobile)
3. Real-Time User Access Revalidation
Rayven continuously verifies user permissions to ensure secure access:
-
API-based permission validation
-
Real-time access changes using push or pull API calls
-
Dynamic role enforcement for all users
4. Strong Password Policies
To protect user accounts, Rayven enforces strict password rules:
-
Minimum of 8 characters
-
At least 1 uppercase + 1 lowercase character
-
At least 1 number and 1 special character
5. User Data Encryption at Rest
Stored data is encrypted using:
-
Triple DES encryption for general user data
-
SHA-256 one-way hash for passwords, ensuring credentials cannot be reversed
6. API Authentication Methods
Multiple secure API authentication types are supported:
-
Username + password
-
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
-
Token-based access for secure service integrations
7. Single Sign-On (SSO) Support
Rayven supports SSO integration, allowing seamless and secure login across platforms and internal systems.
8. Security Event Monitoring & Incident Handling
Rayven monitors both users and devices in real-time and allows you to respond dynamically:
-
Live monitoring of system actions and access
-
Workflow-based incident responses via the Rayven Flow Builder
9. Protection of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability
Data is secured throughout its lifecycle:
| Data State | Security Layer |
|---|---|
| In Transit | SHA-256 + RSA / TLS / SSL |
| At Rest | Triple DES or AES-256 encryption |
| In Use | Secure workflows + protected endpoints |
10. Device Security Health Monitoring
Rayven actively checks device security:
-
Automated health checks via polling or pull
-
Rayven Defender flags anomalies and signs of tampering
Security Protocols and Technologies
Rayven supports industry-standard security mechanisms across its stack:
| Security Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| TLS Handshake Protocol | Authenticates both ends before transmitting data securely |
| TLS Record Protocol | Encrypts messages over TCP for secure sessions |
| SSL Encryption | Secures end-user sessions across all interfaces |
| Certificate-Based Auth | Uses public/private key pairs for physical-layer device verification |
| Bearer Tokens | Allows secure, key-free API communication |
| Database Encryption | Encrypts database contents (available in private cloud configurations) |
| SFTP | Secure file transfers between systems |
| VPN (Private Cloud) | Fully encrypted server and device communication tunnels |
☁️ Microsoft Azure Security Integration
Rayven leverages Microsoft Azure’s robust security tools to enhance platform protection:
| Azure Feature | Role in Rayven Security |
|---|---|
| Azure Security Center | Provides threat detection, alerting, and security recommendations |
| Azure Policy | Enforces controls like disallowing public IPs or managing RBAC |
| RBAC (Role-Based Access) | Defines granular access rights across Azure-connected services |
| Resource Locks | Prevents unauthorized resource deletion or configuration changes |
| Custom Dashboards | Track security alerts, service health, and network risks in real-time |
Summary
Rayven’s security architecture protects your data from edge to cloud, combining:
-
Private cloud isolation
-
Multi-layer encryption
-
Dynamic user access controls
-
Device-level protection
-
Integrated Microsoft Azure security
From initial device ingestion to live dashboards and APIs, your data remains confidential, consistent, and available, while also remaining auditable and compliant with modern enterprise standards.
Security FAQ
Q: Is Rayven’s platform secure enough for enterprise IoT use?
A: Yes. Rayven combines proprietary controls with Microsoft Azure Security to deliver enterprise-grade protection.
Q: Does Rayven encrypt data in storage and transmission?
A: Yes. Data is encrypted at rest (Triple DES / AES-256) and in transit (SSL/TLS with SHA-256 + RSA).
Q: Can I monitor login attempts or unauthorized access?
A: Yes. Rayven includes security event monitoring and enables incident response workflows.
Q: What authentication methods does Rayven support?
A: Username/password, multi-factor authentication, token-based authentication, and Single Sign-On (SSO).
Q: How are devices authenticated and monitored?
A: Rayven uses device keys, certificates, and polling-based health checks. Rayven Defender flags anomalies in real-time.
Q: Can I isolate Rayven in a private cloud?
A: Yes. Rayven supports secure private cloud deployments with optional VPN and database encryption.
Q: Does Rayven support audit logs for compliance?
A: Yes. Rayven records system access, login attempts, and workflow events that can be included in audit logs and compliance reports.
Q: Can I restrict access to specific dashboards or datasets by user role?
A: Yes. Rayven uses role-based access control (RBAC) to manage which users or groups can see specific data, dashboards, or workflows.
Q: How does Rayven handle password recovery or resets?
A: Password resets are governed by secure flows and must comply with the same password complexity rules (uppercase, lowercase, special character, etc.).
Q: Can I integrate Rayven security with my corporate identity provider?
A: Yes. Rayven supports Single Sign-On (SSO) integration with most identity providers (e.g., Azure AD, Okta, Google Workspace).
Q: Does Rayven have protection against brute force login attacks?
A: Yes. Rayven includes rate limiting and can block IPs or users after repeated failed login attempts. Admin alerts can be configured.
Q: Can Rayven detect tampered or compromised devices?
A: Yes. Rayven Defender monitors devices for anomalies or tampering and can trigger alerts or automated responses.
Q: Is VPN access required for all Rayven customers?
A: No. VPN is optional and available for private cloud deployments. For most users, Rayven’s default encryption and access controls are sufficient.
Q: Can I create custom incident response workflows?
A: Yes. Use the Flow Builder to define automatic actions when security events are detected—such as revoking access, sending alerts, or logging reports.
