Security & Data Privacy Architecture
Student and financial records run through isolated operational boundaries.
Isolated Tenant Boundaries
AI queries run inside isolated school tenant contexts. Cross-tenant data access is impossible.
Zero External AI Training
Student records, parent contacts, and payment statements are never sent to external public LLM training datasets.
Role-Based Access Control
Strict role scoping. Bursars see fee tools, teachers access assigned class tools, and principals view executive data.
Data Protection Act (2019)
Full audit trails log user ID, timestamp, and IP address for every query to comply with Kenya data laws.
Student and fee data protected by design.
Every admission record, report card, parent contact detail, and M-Pesa transaction runs through bank-grade safeguards.
Student Data Encryption
TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256 at rest. Student birth certificates, UPI numbers, and grade profiles remain encrypted.
Strict Role-Based Access
Bursars see fee records, teachers view assigned classes. Staff only access student records permitted by their role.
Zero External AI Training
Student queries in Darasa AI run in isolated private environments. Data is never shared or used to train public models.
Full Audit Trail Logging
Every AI lookup, grade change, and fee adjustment records a timestamp, IP address, and user ID.
Verified M-Pesa Callbacks
Payments match through signed Safaricom Daraja callbacks only — preventing manual payment fraud.
Data Protection Act (2019)
Built around Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019 — covering lawful basis, retention limits, and parent data rights.
Simple, transparent pricing.
Every school gets the full platform. No hidden modules, no feature paywalls.
