- End-of-contract process
- Customers have full control to delete, back up, or export their data at any time. Upon contract termination, they are reminded to retrieve their data. Because of Zero-Knowledge model, LucidLink does not have access, control, or visibility to any data a customer stores within the Filespace service.

Deletion is documented, and certification is available upon request. All personal data is either returned to the customer or securely deleted, following formal retention and disposal procedures per customer request. Any required retention for legal reasons is limited to business contact, contract, and billing information, and only for as long as legally necessary.

The service operates as a virtual extension of the customer's chosen cloud storage, requiring no special networking setup beyond outbound HTTPS. Access is managed by the customer, ensuring only authorized users can reach their files.
- Accessibility testing
- LucidLink presents itself as a local file system on the end user’s machine.

- Description of customisation
-
LucidLink provides a comprehensive set of administrative controls that enable organisations to customise the platform in line with their operational, security and governance requirements. Administrator users can centrally manage user access and permissions, ensuring individuals and teams have the appropriate levels of visibility and control over files and folders.
Performance can be tailored through configurable cache sizes on a per-user basis, allowing administrators to optimise local storage usage and responsiveness based on user roles, device capabilities or network conditions. Data protection policies can be customised by defining snapshot schedules, enabling organisations to establish recovery points that align with internal retention, backup and compliance standards.
In addition, administrators can manage filespace settings, user onboarding and offboarding, and other operational parameters to maintain consistency, security and efficiency across distributed teams. These controls provide flexibility while ensuring centralised oversight, making LucidLink adaptable to a wide range of workflows and organisational requirements.
Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Customer data is logically separated into single tenants, each with a dedicated filespace hub and object storage account. This robust separation, combined with a zero knowledge model, ensures one customer's demand or activity cannot impact another's data or performance.
Analytics
- Service usage metrics
- Yes
- Metrics types
- LucidLink provides detailed performance metrics for Filespace, including concurrency, IOPS, latency, notifications, size, throughput, and total usage. Cache metrics cover efficiency, hits, misses, read/write bytes, and utilization. Additional metrics are available for synchronizer, preloader, and metastore components, supporting comprehensive monitoring and optimization.

Data importing and exporting
- Data export approach
- Users can export their data by mapping usernames to email addresses, downloading a CSV of usernames, and specifying which users to include. They can also export mailbox data by sharing the Filespace mount-point and using either the user interface or command-line tools to export to a PST file. Progress can be tracked via the Exchange Management Shell.

Data-in-transit protection
- Data protection between buyer and supplier networks
- Other
- Other protection between networks
- Data is encrypted end-to-end, with all data encrypted on the customer device and remaining encrypted both in transit and at rest. Only the customer holds the encryption keys. Communication channels use TLS for additional protection, ensuring data is doubly encrypted during transfer. This zero-knowledge model means neither LucidLink nor storage providers can access the data contents.
- Data protection within supplier network
- Other
- Other protection within supplier network
- LucidLink operates on a Zero-Knowledge model and has no access, control, or visibility to any data a customer stores within the Filespace service. For the limited contact data it collects for contract, billing, and support services, Data is protected with strong encryption (AES-256 in GCM mode at rest, TLS 1.2 in transit), strict access controls (RBAC, "Need to Have/Need to Know" principle, quarterly reviews), continuous monitoring (SIEM, intrusion detection), endpoint and boundary protection, and secure management of privileged accounts. Only authorized users can access sensitive data, and all access is logged.

Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Configuration and change management approach
- LucidLink uses a documented change management process covering logging, planning, testing, risk management, approval, and backout procedures. All changes to production, including systems, applications, and infrastructure, require review, approval, and testing before implementation. Changes are tracked in a ticketing system, with quality assurance and user acceptance testing documented. Development and testing occur in environments separated from production. The effectiveness of these controls is independently verified through third-party audits and external assessments.
- Vulnerability management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
- LucidLink uses a mature, risk-based vulnerability management program with industry-standard tools and recurring scans. Vulnerabilities are tracked, risk-scored, prioritized, and remediated according to defined SLAs: critical/high within 30 days, medium within 90 days, and low within 180 days. The process includes monitoring for new threats, thorough evaluation, and prompt mitigation of critical issues. Host-based scans are performed at least quarterly, and penetration testing is conducted annually with remediation plans implemented as needed.
- Protective monitoring type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402

Intrusion detection systems, firewalls, and endpoint protection are in place for early detection of security breaches. All Monitoring activities are ongoing, with integration to enterprise SIEM with corrective actions tracked and escalated as needed. Employee activity and adherence to policies are also monitored, and annual risk meetings review deficiencies and corrective actions. Cloud infrastructure is continuously monitored using AWS GuardDuty.
