Security

School data security, with servers in India.

Gyanama keeps school data on servers in India and backs up the database three times a day. Everyone signs in with a phone number and a one-time code that expires in 5 minutes and allows 3 tries. Five roles each get their own access, every request is written to an audit log, and the school decides which numbers are never called.

Who can see what?

Gyanama has five roles: principal, coordinator, manager, teacher and student. Each role has its own access. Families use the student login, so a parent sees their own child's account.
