HR data security software

Control who signs in and sees what

Choose sign-in methods, require 2FA for everyone, open each role down to single fields, and give every integration and AI client a narrow way in.

HR data security settings in Skailer: sign-in methods, required 2FA and password rules
01Sign-in you set
Password, Google or Microsoft sign-in, and 2FA for everyone.
02Access down to the field
Each role views or edits specific fields, for specific people.

04One account per integration
The API works only through service users with their own roles.
The problem

A security review shouldn't stall the rollout

The questionnaire arrives: sign-in, access, logging, integrations, AI, hosting. Meanwhile salary sheets are shared by link, and people who left can still sign in.

Sign-in and identity

Decide how people sign in and require 2FA for all

Admins choose which sign-in methods are on: password, Google or Microsoft Entra ID. Google sign-in can be limited to your Workspace domains and Microsoft to your tenants. 2FA can be required for everyone.

01Three sign-in methods
password, Google and Microsoft Entra ID; the admin picks which
02Limited to your domains
Google for your Workspace domains, Microsoft for your tenants
03Required 2FA
an authenticator app for everyone; admins reset it on lockout
04Password and email rules
password length and expiry, and work emails from your domains
Access control

Open each role to the fields and people it needs

Every role sets view or edit rights down to single fields and modules, and decides whose data it reaches: own record, reports, teams, a location or a legal entity. New custom fields stay hidden until granted.

01Field-level rights
no access, view or edit for each field, including custom ones
02Scoped by structure
reports, teams, departments, locations or legal entities
03Hidden by default
new custom fields and tables stay invisible until a role gets them
04Reversible lockout
disable someone's sign-in without changing their records

Audit and accountability

Keep a record of who did what, including admins

Log in as is a separate, time-limited permission with restricted actions, and every session goes to the audit log. Position, pay and leave changes keep who and when, and the audit log is searchable via the API.

01Log in as with limits
its own permission, time-limited, with restricted actions
02Audit log
searchable through the API by the roles you allow to see it
03Change history
position, compensation and leave changes keep who and when
04Signed documents
each signature keeps a report of who signed and when

Integrations and AI

Give each integration and AI tool a narrow way in

The API works only through service users, each with its own role and expiring tokens. Webhooks are signed. AI clients via MCP act with one person's permissions, and the assistant changes nothing without confirmation.

01Service user per integration
its own account and role, never an employee's login
02Scoped responses
the service user's role decides which fields come back
03Signed webhooks
your systems verify the sender, and the secret can be rotated
04AI within permissions
off until enabled, asks before changes, read-only unless allowed
Privacy

Collect consent and set how long candidate data stays

Recruiting runs consent management under GDPR: candidates get a consent request with your privacy policy and can ask to edit or delete their data. Anonymous survey results stay hidden until 3 people answer.

01Consent under GDPR
consent status shown on every candidate profile in the ATS
02Retention period
you set how long candidate data is kept, and extend it per person
03Candidate requests
edit or delete requests straight from the consent email
04Survey anonymity
results, exports and AI summaries need at least 3 answers
One HR platform

Security settings that every module follows

Sign-in rules, roles and the audit log apply across Core HR, Recruiting, Performance and integrations, so reviewers check one access model, not one per module.

How does Skailer handle HR data security?

Skailer lets admins choose sign-in methods (password, Google or Microsoft Entra ID, limited to your domains and tenants) and require 2FA for everyone. Roles set view or edit rights per field and module and limit them to reports, teams, locations or legal entities. Log in as is a separate, time-limited permission, and each session goes to the audit log. Integrations use service users, webhooks are signed, and AI acts within user permissions. SAML and SCIM aren't supported today.
