HireHop Security – How HireHop protects your data

Secure rental softwareWe care about security as much as you do, and we do it well. HireHop uses automated tools to monitor service performance for problems 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with no days off. Our servers have complete 24-7  security and maintenance, with advanced monitoring to prevent high-tech breaches.

HireHop is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is the world’s largest data and server hosting global infrastructure, valued at around $3 trillion; not even the world’s largest rental company could afford an infrastructure of that size. AWS is used by NASA, banks, large companies and governments all over the world due to the world leading security and services it provides.

Your data is protected and private

We utilise many of the AWS advanced security safeguards to keep all of your data private and protected. HireHop also undergoes and passes penetration tests (pen tests) every year, meaning ethical hackers try to break into the system to find vulnerabilities, and pass us only when they feel we are secure.

We have made sure that our database servers are protected behind advanced firewalls, so even in the extremely unlikely event a hacker manages to get the login credentials for our servers, they would still be unable to gain access due to the firewalls.

Connections to HireHop are secure

HireHop uses secure sockets layer (SSL also known as HTTPS) with 128 bit encryption technology. SSL protects users against man-in-the-middle attacks that can be launched from compromised or insecure networks, and verifies that when logging into HireHop, you are not being redirected to a spoof site.

HireHop uses a 2 step password-protected login with limited attempts that are enforced with a timeout. This protects you against brute force attacks, where a hacker will flood our server with login requests to try to work out what your password is.

You’ll never forget to backup your data

HireHop performs automated daily backups, as well as having live backups on servers located around the world, so if there is a catastrophe in one country, your up-to-date data is also available in another country if needed.

HireHop also has local live backups, as well as fallover protection with replications in other AWS availability zones. This means that you get the convenience of HireHop backing up and maintaining your data without the effort and cost of managing it yourself. If a server does go down, another will automatically fire up and replace it, giving you the maximum possible uptime.

We protect you from bots

HireHop will automatically deny a user access if it feels a bot is posting or requesting data on the user’s behalf. This extra layer of protection prevents bots from damaging or extracting your data in the event one of your users’ login credentials being leaked.  HireHop will also log a user out if the same user account tries to login to another machine, making sure that you don’t leave open access on another computer. You can also use Multi-Factor Authorisation (MFA) in HireHop, by utilising it with a Google, Xero or Microsoft Sign in.

We value privacy

HireHop builds privacy into everything we do, as that is how we choose to treat and respect our customers. We follow a strict set of guidelines and practices to protect all of your private information and data, and will not sell, rent or share your information with third parties for their promotional use. For full disclosure of our privacy practices, please read our Privacy Statement.

HireHop is available 24/7

HireHop has been available more than 99.9% of the time for the past three years. This is because we rely on redundant servers and a self-correcting error detection systems. This means that if one server becomes impacted or unavailable, your service will probably not be affected, as another server will automatically kick in, enabling you to access your data online no matter where or when.

You make the rules

You control which users can accesses your data, what they can see and what they can do. Each user in HireHop is subject to various permissions set by you, that lets you limit the rights of each user. You can even limit a user to only be allowed to login from a certain IP address, like the one at your office, preventing them logging in outside of the place of work.

Everyone is held accountable

HireHop logs practically every transaction done by a user, which cannot be turned off or deleted. HireHop records every user login, and whenever possible, records a the changes done by the user, giving you a detailed audit trail.

New Features – A Review of the Latest Updates, April 2018


We strive to improve our cloud based hire business software by actively listening to our users and implementing the features that they need.
We have worked tirelessly to bring you new features and functionality based on users feedback and needs, that many of our users have been beta testing over the past few months.
We look forward to continuing our journey together to make the best software even better!

Scan out in Tree View

We have listened to our users and have worked hard to further enhance our powerful scanning features.

All HireHop users now have the ability to scan jobs out in the same view as the Supplying List, or continue scanning out in the traditional Grouped and List methods. Our tree view allows you to expand or collapse branches of the tree and view the headings and notes exactly as they were created – allowing the user to assign a scanned item to the selected row within the tree.

Check Out – Test Verifications

Don’t want an asset to be checked onto a job if a test or service has expired or is due during the job? On HireHop you can now prevent this from happening.

First, login to HireHop and visit Home-Settings-Company Settings to set your company verification preferences for the three test types available:
  • Ignore – Allows assets with test/service failures to be scanned out.
  • Confirm – Brings up a warning of test/scan failures, but allows the user to scan again to confirm and check out. See User Permissions below.
  • Prevent – Does not allow the asset to be scanned out.

 

If you have chosen Confirm as your Company Setting for a test, select the Users tab to tailor your User Settings and enable/disable users from being able to confirm a scanned asset which has failed it’s test or service.

Now you’re good to go! Just ensure your tests and services are up to date through Hire Stock Management. You may also like to take a look at our recently enhanced and extremely handy Test/Service Report, which can be found in the Reports tab from the Home page.

Note: Tests can be renamed using our Language Editor!

Limit User Locations

Administrators now have the ability to limit the locations that specific users can login from, such as limiting a user to access HireHop only from the warehouse. 

Simply enter the IP address required, or click ‘My IP address’ to use your current IP.

Job Delivery & Collection

On jobs, add labels to say how the kit is leaving the warehouse and how it is arriving back in.

For goods out, the default options are customer collection, we deliver, courier delivery and other goods out.

For goods in, the default options are customer return, we collect, courier collect and other goods in.

Note: Customise these to your company via the Language Editor!

Prevent Deletion of Supplying Items

HireHop will now prevent a User from deleting more items from the Supplying List than have already been checked out.

Administrators can choose to override this for specific users in User Permissions.

Advanced API in Beta Testing

Completely customise HireHop & interface with HireHop from an external app via our API to do almost anything in the system!

Contact us now for further information.

GDPR Compliance

Enable your users to unsubscribe from the address book mailing lists!

General Improvements and Speed Enhancements

We can’t list every update we do (you’ll get bored reading through the long list), as we regularly release new minor enhancements and features to help make your life easier such as more document fields, system speed increases, additional data fields and the list goes on.

Convert Seaward PAT Test Data To CSV – Seawardd PAT Test Data To Excel Spreadsheet Online Tool

Many users of HireHop Rental Business and Asset Management Software have asked us how they can import their PAT test data from their Seaward PAT testers.  This can be done using the Seaward PAT Guard 3 software, however to save our users from having to pay for this software, we have added a small tool below where you can upload the ASCII text output file from your Seaward tester, and we will return the data in a CSV format that you can use to import into HireHop.

This format works with testers such as the Apollo, PrimeTest and SuperNova PAT testers, including the Apollo 600, Apollo 500, Apollo 400, Supernova Elite, PrimeTest 250+ range of testers.

To get the ascii text output file, link your tester to your PC, download the data into the PATGuard Lite software and export/save the file.  You can then upload the file here for it to be converted to CSV.


Choose a file to convert by clicking the “Choose File” button.
