MongoDB completes IRAP assessment
MongoDB has completed IRAP assessment, allowing federal government agencies across Australia to use its MongoDB Atlas developer data platform to build, manage and deploy applications. Carried out by security firm CyberCX, the IRAP assessment evaluated MongoDB Atlas’s platform for data workloads up to ‘PROTECTED’ level across all three major cloud providers — AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform.
The platform offers true multi-cloud capabilities, meaning that data can be stored and synchronised on multiple cloud providers at the same time, rather than on one single cloud provider, to ensure high levels of resilience. Multi-region capability allows organisations to use multiple cloud regions within the same defined geographic area, which makes applications more resilient and makes data sovereignty easier.
Embedded security features include the new Queryable Encryption, which offers a searchable encryption capability. Queryable Encryption enables organisations to search and return encrypted data that becomes visible to application end users only when decrypted with customer-controlled cryptographic keys — but remains encrypted in use throughout the query process, in transit over networks, and at rest in storage.
