Here at Big Red Cloud, we take security and protection of your data extremely seriously. That\u2019s why we have teamed up with Microsoft Azure to provide you with secure and reliable online accounting software.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"24\" data-lineheight=\"36px\">Infrastructure platform<\/h3>\n<p>Big Red Cloud\u2019s accounting software application is hosted on Azure.

This allows you to protect your financial records by assigning the relevant access required by each individual user. You may give an unlimited amount of users access to your records, however they must be invited by the account administrator first.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"24\" data-lineheight=\"36px\">Security testing<\/h3>\n<p>Big Red Cloud\u2019s accounting software has been subjected to independent, external testing to verify its security.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"24\" data-lineheight=\"36px\">Data ownership<\/h3>\n<p>Although you enter your data into Big Red Cloud\u2019s accounting software which is hosted by Microsoft Azure, you retain ownership of the data.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"24\" data-lineheight=\"36px\">Data backups<\/h3>\n<p>Microsoft Azure automatically takes two backups of your data.
