Privacy
Your data is stored with Amazon within Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). The application is available over HTTPS and data is always encrypted in Amazon S3 using AES-256.

Widen complies with GDPR and is ISO 27001 certified. Amazon’s commitment to customer data safeguard processes and controls is detailed in their certifications and accreditations, which include SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS Level I, and FIPS 140-2, among other compliance initiatives.

Redundancy
Your data is redundantly stored and synchronized within multiple geographically separate data centers in two Amazon S3 Regions, the US-East and the US-West Regions. European customers may opt for European data storage, processing, and backups in EU West and EU Central regions.
Third-party validation
We employ a third party to run continuous assessments of our Collective environment, checking for all known vulnerabilities based on the WASC Threat Classification and OWASP Top 10 standards.
Annual third-party penetration tests
We engage a third party to perform penetration tests within Amazon's environment, the Widen Collective, and Widen physical offices to ensure your data is never at risk and always secure.
User audit trails
Audit the details of user activity within your DAM system and asset usage through Widen Reports and Insights leveraging Amazon CloudWatch and Kinesis.
Delivery outside the Collective
Our content delivery network (CDN), Amazon CloudFront, securely delivers Collective content to give your users up-to-date, high speed, and low latency access to assets. Combined with unlimited bandwidth, we confidently and seamlessly handle all of your assets — from hundreds to hundreds of thousands.
Cost efficiencies
We use auto-scaling services, like Amazon Lambda and Amazon DynamoDB to effectively scale your storage needs. With automatic backups, scalable storage, and secure servers, cloud services provide protection and reliability that you can count on for access to you data when and where you need it.
