Data protection in Netronic Manufacturing

Netronic Manufacturing is a cloud-based solution that extends the capabilities of ERP systems like SAP Business One and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Our top priority is protecting your data throughout its lifecycle from synchronization to storage and access.

1. Hosting and infrastructure

Netronic Manufacturing is hosted in Microsoft Azure cloud environments, with deployments in:

• West Europe (Netherlands)
• North America (Canada Central, Toronto)

Customers are connected to the region closest to their operations to ensure low latency and high availability.

Microsoft Azure protects your data using multiple layers of security and encryption protocols. For details, see Microsoft’s Data residency page and the Azure encryption overview. You may also want to read Microsoft’s white paper on how they handle your data in the cloud, covering sub-processors and data privacy.

Architectural overview

Here is a draft of the overall architecture for Netronic Manufacturing:

2. Data synchronization and encryption

Our solution extends the functionality of your ERP system by synchronizing only the necessary data via secure APIs. Key aspects of our data handling include:

• End-to-end encryption: All data in transit is encrypted end-to-end using HTTPS. At rest, data is protected using industry-standard AES-256 encryption in Microsoft Azure.
• Data synchronization: Communication is established through the standard APIs of supported ERP systems.
  • SAP Business One uses Basic Authentication;
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central uses OAuth 2.0.

2.1. IP whitelisting

To ensure secure and reliable communication, ERP systems must whitelist specific fixed IP addresses used by the Netronic Manufacturing cloud service. These IP addresses are used for outbound connections from the Netronic Manufacturing solution to the customer’s ERP system.

Whitelisting these IPs is essential to allow the cloud service to establish a secure connection with your ERP environment.

For detailed guidance on setting up the connection, please refer to our Help center articles:

• Enable communication with SAP Business One
• Enable communication with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

3. Authentication and access control

Boyum IT has implemented robust authentication mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the system:

• Authentication is managed through an identity provider hosted in Boyum IT’s own secure data center in Denmark;
• Audit logging tracks access and changes to sensitive data for accountability and compliance.

4. Compliance and data privacy

Netronic Manufacturing is fully compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We ensure:

• Personal data is handled in accordance with GDPR principles.
• Data is stored securely in Azure databases with strict access controls.
