How CrownCAD Safeguards Your Product Data Security
When you move your designs from a personal computer to the cloud, one of the first questions that likely comes to mind is: "Where do my files go? Are they safe?" This concern is both reasonable and common, and it is a question we have asked ourselves. Today, your design teams and suppliers may be spread across different offices, cities, or even around the world. Cloud-native collaboration has become essential for efficient cross-regional workflows, and robust data security is what makes that possible. CrownCAD, as a modern cloud-native 3D CAD platform, has built data security into its DNA. We fully understand that your design drawings and models represent the core "digital assets" of an enterprise. Therefore, we have implemented an enterprise-grade, multi-layered security system to protect your design assets.
Vault-Level Protection in the Cloud
Core Strategy: Multi-Layered Defense with Flexible Deployment
True security does not rely on a single point of protection, but is built as a system of multiple layers.
Vault-Level Protection in the Cloud : When you use CrownCAD in the cloud, your data is stored in high-standard global data centers operated by world-leading cloud providers. Think of it as entrusting your design assets to a global digital vault with top-tier security. On top of that, we implement CrownCAD's performance-optimized encryption and application-layer safeguards, creating a dual-layered protection system of “infrastructure security and application security.” This ensures that external threats cannot access your core data.
Designed for Stringent Control Requirements : We fully understand that certain industries and enterprises have exceptionally strict requirements for data sovereignty and internal control. CrownCAD's architecture was built precisely for this need, supporting full private deployment to ensure data is entirely controllable within internal networks. This capability has been already proven in demanding enterprise environments and currently being rolled out progressively to markets worldwide. At the same time, we are actively expanding our global capabilities to deliver deployment solutions that meet region-specific security and compliance needs for more markets worldwide.
How Do We Protect Your Data Security ?
How Do We Protect Your Data Security ?
In traditional CAD collaboration, the security of core designs relies on a fragile link: the sharing of native design files (.dwg, .prt, etc.). Whether via email, USB drives, or internal server sharing, once a complete CAD file leaves your environment, control is lost. Recipients can easily view, edit, or even export every detail and parameter without authorization. This model not only exposes data to high risks of leakage, duplication, and theft during transmission and storage, but also complicates version management and creates operational chaos.
Data Storage
Files Never Leave the Vault, No Complete Copies Stored Locally: When you log into CrownCAD and start designing, all your geometry data and design parameters remain securely encrypted on cloud servers and never leave the cloud. Your local computer only caches processed, lightweight visual data for real-time display and interaction. Even if that computer is lost or stolen, no one can retrieve your actual design data from it, eliminating the risk of core asset leakage caused by endpoint compromise at its source.
Fragmented and Encrypted Storage
Fragmented and Encrypted Storage : To achieve a higher level of protection, your core data is not stored as directly accessible files on the server. Instead, it is further encrypted and split into multiple data blocks, which are distributed across different secure locations, with no readable structure on their own. This means that even in extreme scenarios, any illegally obtained data would only consist of scattered, encrypted data blocks. Without the complete context and the corresponding decryption keys, they are virtually impossible to reconstruct into usable designs.
Access & Permissions
Multiple Backups for Uninterrupted Data Security : Every operation you perform is saved to the database automatically and in real time, eliminating the need for manual saves while maintaining a complete version history. On top of that, CrownCAD employs a multi-layered backup strategy, including cross-region redundancy, regular snapshots, and offsite backups, to ensure that even in extreme disaster scenarios, your data can be restored quickly and completely.
Data Transmission
When you work in CrownCAD, all your design data transmitted over the network is protected by HTTPS (TLS 1.3), the same standard trusted by online banking and securities trading. This ensures the security and integrity of your data during transmission, preventing eavesdropping or tampering. For your sensitive data, we apply encryption mechanisms tailored to each usage scenario, striking the right balance between security and functionality.
Access & Permissions
CrownCAD embeds security into every access attempt. We verify user identity through multi-factor authentication. In real-time collaborative design, the system provides granular file permission settings. Administrators can clearly define who can view, edit, export, and more. Collaborators can only access the parts permitted by their assigned roles. The system ensures that no one can overstep their authority to obtain the complete design. All collaborative data is synchronized through encrypted channels, eliminating the need to expose internal network ports and fundamentally preventing backdoor vulnerabilities.
Moving to the cloud is not about introducing new risks, but about unleashing your team's collaborative potential and creative speed on a higher foundation of security. Just as design tools themselves continue to evolve, the paradigm of data security must also advance. CrownCAD is committed to delivering a powerful and seamless design experience while embedding enterprise-grade safeguards into the very DNA of the product, so you can focus on creating the future with complete peace of mind.
