Data security & infrastructure

Elixir Point

Encrypted Transfers: All data is encrypted in transit, ensuring sensitive information remains protected during transfer.

Elixir Point

AWS-Hosted Infrastructure: iTraX operates on Amazon Web Services, leveraging ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified data centres with DDoS protection and layered network security.

Elixir Point

System Hardening & Monitoring: Servers are updated with the latest patches, firewalled to minimize exposure and continuously monitored for threats.

Elixir Point

Automated Backups & Point in Time Recovery: Nightly scheduled backups safeguard your data, with tested restore processes to guarantee reliability. Point in time recovery enables your environment to be restored to an exact moment in time, further reducing the risk of any data loss.

Access & identity management

Elixir Point

Granular Permissions: Configure user- and role-based permissions to restrict what individual users, CROs and partners can view, edit and manage.

Elixir Point

Two-Factor Authentication: Adds an extra layer of security beyond username and password.

Elixir Point

Single Sign-On (SSO): Centralized identity management SAML, which uses secure tokens which are digitally signed and encrypted messages with authentication and authorization data, providing seamless yet secure access across systems. The SAML users are under the control of the customer, enabling efficient onboarding and off-boarding that isn’t reliant on Elixir. 

Elixir Point

Best-Practice Combinations: The integration of SSO with SAML and 2FA delivers enterprise-grade security for regulated industries.

Compliance & transparency

Elixir Point

Audit Trails: Maintain logs of system access and data exchanges for accountability and compliance.

Elixir Point

Real-Time Access: Partners and stakeholders can access relevant data instantly, ensuring collaboration without compromising security.

Elixir Point

Regular Penetration Testing: Ongoing third-party security tests validate the platform’s resilience against emerging threats.

Elixir Point

Uptime & Recovery: High system availability with rapid recovery protocols ensures iTraX is dependable even under stress.

What our clients are saying ...

-

I refuse to manage studies without iTraX. The platform’s user-friendliness, transparency, ease of reporting, and clarity far surpass any Excel tracker, no matter how well-designed. It is integral to our operations, and I wouldn’t be nearly as effective as a study manager without it.


Associate Director

Study Management

iTraX has simplified how we work, and has increased both the transparency and efficiency of how we deliver successful science to drug projects, using intuitive software.


Graeme Moody

Drug & Safety Metabolism

I now have a customised snapshot of the sites I am responsible for .. ensuring we share the workload in adding new studies but also capturing progress on current work in a timely manner.


Stewart Jones

Pathology Sciences

Coordinating Medicinal Chemistry design ideas, prioritization and tracking of synthesis progress and compound testing for multiple projects involving many collaborating partners in different continents would be almost unthinkable without it.
