How Silosset keeps your register safe

Your asset register says what you own, where it is and who has it. This page sets out how Silosset protects it, in plain terms and only what is true today.

The safeguards in place

These apply to every organisation on the hosted service.

Hosted on Google Cloud

The hosted service at app.silosset.com runs on Google Cloud, and files are kept in Google Cloud Storage.

Each organisation kept apart

Every record belongs to one organisation, and every query for your data is filtered by your organisation's id. Members of one organisation cannot reach another's register.

Sign-in by password or Google

Members sign in with an email address and password, or with their Google account.

Signed, expiring file links

Photos and documents are not kept at public addresses. When someone needs to see a file, Silosset hands out a signed link that expires after a short time.

Secure QR labels

Secure labels carry a code tied to one asset, so they cannot be copied onto another asset.

Captcha on public forms

Sign-up, the contact form and the public page shown when someone scans a label are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, to keep automated abuse out.

Access

Permission for each action, limited by location

Access is granted per action, such as approving assets or running an audit, rather than per page. Start from a role and adjust it, and limit any member to the locations they work at.

  • Roles: Owner, Manager, Technician, Auditor, Finance and Viewer
  • More than 80 individual permissions
  • A per-member Access screen, with a history of every change to it
A member's access: every permission they hold, grouped by area, and the role it comes from

History

Every change has a name and a date

Each asset keeps a full history of edits, moves, assignments, verifications and write-downs, with who made each change and when.

  • Who changed what, and when, on every asset
  • Electronic signatures when assets are issued, on plans that include them
  • An audit trail that exports to Excel for your auditors
An asset's history: every status change, assignment and edit, with who made it and when

On-premises

Keep your data on your own servers

When data must stay in-house, the on-premises edition runs in your own environment with S3-compatible storage you control, under an annual licence. You decide where it runs and who can reach it.
