At Acendre, the security and protection of our customers’ data is a top priority. Our solutions are architected and designed to meet the requirements of the world’s most secure organizations. Because our talent management solutions are in a secure cloud, you can have the security you require without the traditional capital expenditures and lower ongoing infrastructure and support expenses.

Natural Talent Federal Cloud (NTFED Cloud), Acendre’s talent management solution suite, provides a reliable and scalable platform that enables secure, rapid deployment of the talent management system. With Acendre, your data is securely stored on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud infrastructure. The AWS infrastructure has been designed to satisfy the highest availability while putting strong safeguards in place regarding customer privacy and segregation.

NTFED Cloud is protected by extensive network and security monitoring systems. In addition, AWS infrastructure components are continuously scanned and tested.

AWS builds its data centers in multiple geographic regions as well as across multiple Availability Zones within each region to offer maximum resiliency against system outages. AWS designs its data centers with significant excess bandwidth connections so that if a major disruption occurs there is sufficient capacity to enable traffic to be load-balanced to the remaining sites, minimizing the impact on you.
