Jotform servers are colocated in a cloud-based architecture with Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Google Cloud data centers are hosted in Iowa (U.S.) and Frankfurt (Germany, EU). AWS data centers are located in Virginia (U.S.) and Frankfurt (Germany, EU).

Google Cloud servers host our redundant application and data servers in active-active configuration, and all data is replicated to AWS servers on an hourly basis for backup purposes. This provides platform-level redundancy in addition to the redundancy obtained with multiple servers within a single platform. In case we need to switch from the primary platform (Google Cloud) to the secondary platform (AWS), this architecture helps us recover from a platform-level outage. All data remains in-region, so EU data always resides in the EU.

Hosting Jotform on these major cloud platforms also provides us with some extra benefits through implementation of security best practices in areas like hardware life cycle management, physical security, and network infrastructure. Our servers are regularly updated and patched.

If you’re a Jotform Enterprise user, you can choose the physical location of your local cloud data residency center and host your data in any part of the world. This is especially important for complying with data privacy rules and location requirements in places such as Australia, Canada, the U.K., and the EU. Whether you choose to keep your data server close to home or your audience, you’ll enjoy better security, reliability, and site latency. Only users and admins within your Enterprise account will be able access your data server.

We continuously replicate your data between multiple servers hosted by our primary service provider, Google Cloud (back up in real time). Additionally, all data is replicated to AWS (our secondary platform) by way of hourly snapshots. Each snapshot is stored for 30 days in the cloud environment. All data remains in-region, so EU data always resides in the EU zone.

With a Jotform Enterprise account, you can use Single Sign-On. A third-party login boosts security while making it easier for your employees to work together to run your business. You have multiple login methods to choose from, as well as options to track user actions and maintain control of your account’s security.

Jotform Enterprise supports SAML user authentication and popular SSO solutions such as Active Directory, Okta, Google, and OneLogin.

You can also use SSO to protect internal forms with Jotform Enterprise. Users will have to be authenticated before they can view your form. That way, when you collect sensitive employee data, you can ensure the person submitting the form is who they say they are.

In addition to implementing features that increase security, we maintain best practices on the back end to ensure that your account remains secure. We monitor sessions to restrict access to your account appropriately, and have constructed Jotform so that every account is isolated.

We have safeguards in place to detect common attacks, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting. Most importantly, we actively review our code for potential security concerns (in addition to evaluating all user feedback) so that we can address any issues as they arise. Our privacy statement speaks to our level of commitment in ensuring your data isn’t misused.

All developed code is deployed to the production environment only after certain procedures, including test runs on staging systems. Our continuous deployment system and development process allow us to rapidly update and patch our system whenever needed.

PCI scans are regularly performed to detect any kind of vulnerability in our publicly available interfaces. Each quarter, internal and external Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) tests are performed for PCI. In addition to these PCI scans, penetration tests are performed periodically.

We also have a bug bounty program for which we pay outside parties to report vulnerabilities. This ensures that we are the first to know about any bugs. We fix all high-priority issues reported to our bug bounty program as quickly as possible.

We have an outside routing layer from CloudFlare that provides basic filtering to handle and manage any potential DDoS (denial of service) attacks. Security scans are performed periodically as described in the audits/VA/PT chapter. Our servers are configured to allow only the absolute minimum level of access needed to maintain them.

All unnecessary users, protocols, and ports are disabled and monitored. Our employees are able to access the servers only through a virtual private network using a 2048-bit encrypted connection with private keys. In addition to third-party security services, our experienced development operations team continuously monitors any suspicious behavior for the entire system.

All account information is automatically encrypted when transferred. Only you have access to your forms and submissions. You may add multiple users to your account with Jotform Enterprise.

No matter what industry you work in, Jotform wants to help create the perfect security controls for your needs. As an Enterprise user, you can easily request to enable, disable, or add specific security settings to your local data residency center. Contact our Enterprise team to learn more.
