What happens if we decide to move away from WhistleB?
Encrypted data can be exported to another database.
Is phone reporting available?
Yes, the WhistleB whistleblowing system supports multilingual voice messaging with local phone numbers and allows for anonymous dialogue with the person calling. All messages are received in your Case management tool.
Research and our experience show that voice reporting is rapidly declining. We advocate the web-based solution for data security, cost-efficiency and user-friendliness reasons. An example of a web based feature, that is appreciated by our customers, is the possibility to attach picture and text file evidence.
How does WhistleB ensure the highest possible level of data privacy?
WhistleB has made data privacy our top priority. Data security and privacy are essential for building trust in the whistleblowing system, and to protect an anonymous whistleblower and sensitive data. We have integrated the high data privacy settings throughout the development and the life cycle of the service. Your data is hosted according to the highest possible security standards, as confirmed by our ISO 27001 certification.
The WhistleB service is continuously monitored and regularly tested, including penetration testing by external IT security experts. Visit the WhistleB Trust Centre » to learn more about whistleblowing and data privacy.
