Strata Hub security and privacy
We have implemented multiple security measures to protect the identity of individuals, businesses and strata schemes.
Strata annual reporting
All strata schemes in NSW will need to report key information online each year.
Report multiple schemes in bulk
We have different options for strata managers who want to report in bulk.
We ask Strata Hub users to prove they are who they say they are, and have a legitimate reason to access the hub, before they are allowed in.
Examples include:
- multi-factor authentication
- strong password protocols
- captcha software
- auto-disabling long-time dormant users
- proof of identity through Service NSW
- identity checking strata manager's licence number.
We monitor the sessions our users have on the Strata Hub.
Examples of how we do this include:
- logging out a user after failed login attempts
- logging out after extended inactive screen time.
We log the activity a user does on the Strata Hub.
Examples of the activity we log include:
- requests to access strata scheme information
- login/logout attempts
- viewing or attempting to view scheme information
- field level changes and any change of individual user's access.
We are always reviewing our processes and technologies.
We are proactively completing:
- end-to-end testing to ensure the auditing processes are working properly
- penetration security testing by cyber security experts during critical delivery phases
- continuous upgrades of the platform used for strata scheme reporting to address potential new vulnerabilities.
