Security
Your projects depend on your data. We take protecting it seriously.
Purlieu is built to support the information your team relies on throughout the life of a project. Our platform is hosted using Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure, providing a strong foundation for the security, availability, and reliability of the Purlieu environment.
Security is considered throughout how Purlieu is developed, hosted, maintained, and supported.

Designed around controlled access to your work.
Purlieu brings project, specification, procurement, order, vendor, document, contact, and related operational information into a connected environment. Protecting access to that information is an important part of the platform.
Authenticated access
Users access Purlieu through individual authenticated accounts rather than through publicly accessible project records.
Organizational control
Purlieu is designed to help organizations manage access to their working environment and the information used by their teams.
Connected information
By keeping project information within a structured platform, Purlieu reduces the need to rely exclusively on disconnected spreadsheets, shared files, email threads, and other fragmented sources to manage critical project information.
Our approach
Security is an ongoing responsibility.
Security is not treated as a one-time feature. Purlieu's approach includes the infrastructure the platform runs on, the way the application is developed and maintained, how access is managed, and how our team responds as the platform evolves.
Infrastructure
Using established cloud infrastructure to provide the foundation for the Purlieu environment.
Application
Considering security as part of the development and maintenance of the Purlieu platform.
Access
Providing authenticated access to help protect customer environments and information.
Ongoing improvement
Continuing to evaluate and improve the platform as Purlieu, its capabilities, and customer requirements evolve.
Shared responsibility
Security works best when everyone plays a part.
Protecting business information is a shared responsibility. Purlieu works to provide a secure platform foundation, while customers remain responsible for how their organization manages user access, account credentials, internal policies, devices, and the information their users choose to enter or share through the platform.
We encourage customers to maintain appropriate internal security practices and promptly update access when team members or responsibilities change.
