The Osprey software is hosted in Azure via ‘Platform as a Service’ products, which provide automatic OS and platform patching. Osprey utilizes point in time backup functionality on data stores to protect against data loss due to corruption. The Osprey system is deployed into Azure utilising Infrastructure as Code tools, allowing in an event of infrastructure loss for the system to be redeployed quickly. Sensitive data is encrypted within the database and is only unencrypted within application at time of use, and the entire database is encrypted at rest.
