Conners 4 Manual Chapter 3: Data Security |
Access to MHS online services via the MHS Online
Assessment Center+ is
restricted to qualified users and requires an ID and password. Registration of MHS customers or
their designated users (examiners) includes defined user
qualification levels (see Users and User
Qualifications
in chapter 1,
Introduction). All Conners 4 data are stored in an industry-standard secure
database. Access to these data is strictly controlled. A
temporary password initially provided by MHS must be changed upon initial login to the MHS Online Assessment
Center+. MHS Technical Support can reset a password at the request of the customer, if
necessary.
The Conners 4 reports are scored by a separate secure scoring server controlled by MHS with an
advanced level of security protection. MHS protects the
personal data (e.g., name/ID, gender, and date of birth) of all test raters, clients, and users,
as well as the data collected via electronic commerce
interactions, with the highest levels of security. The data collected are stored in a secure
database with a third-party vendor located in the U.S. that
provides 24/7/365 security services and complies with various regulatory bodies such as ISO27001
and SOC-2. The databases use the latest Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES-256), where data is encrypted at rest, and MHS web portals use
Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2), where information is encrypted
in motion. TLS encrypts personal and test information (including test data, responses, and
reports returned to the examiner).
