Today’s world revolves around digital data. Especially so for creative professionals, media assets, files, and information must be handled with the utmost care, from initial upload to final distribution. In collaborative environments, where video editors, VFX artists, and content producers are often working across cities or continents, security is foundational.

For teams choosing cloud storage, Suite offers best-in-class security & reliability protocols, including SOC 2 compliance, TPN certification, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and Single Sign-On, as well as platform-specific features like Transactional Writes, User Permissions, and Time Machine.

Suite is proud to comply with industry standard protocols and offer tools specifically designed to safeguard sensitive assets without compromising workflow efficiency.

Here’s an overview of these industry best practices, and how they impact teams:

Enterprise-Ready Cloud Storage Built for Creative Teams

Whether you're editing a Super Bowl commercial, creating VFX assets for a live performance, or color grading an unreleased music video, protecting your data is non-negotiable. Suite’s cloud storage with file streaming is proud to work earn industry-leading benchmarks in security that make secure collaboration via our cloud storage platform easy and scalable—and secure.

SOC 2

SOC 2 is a rigorous auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that evaluates how a service provider manages customer data and the effectiveness of its policies and procedures, specifically relating to Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and Privacy.

Earning SOC II compliance means Suite has undergone an independent third-party audit and proven that our cloud-native storage platform with file streaming has strict controls in place to protect your data. For media teams, Suite’s SOC 2 compliance offers concrete assurance that your files are managed with enterprise-grade, verified security and accountability.

TPN Certification

Trusted Partner Network (TPN) is a global industry initiative developed by the Motion Picture Association (MPA) to establish standardized security protocols & checkpoints for vendors working with high-value, sensitive content. The TPN certification process ensures that companies meet rigorous content security requirements, reducing the risk of leaks, breaches, and other vulnerabilities that can occur when handling digital files.

Suite’s TPN certified status offers peace of mind for every team, ensuring our platform is among those trusted by the best in the business.

Multi-Factor Authentication

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is available in Suite, offering enhanced security for teams and users who want extra protection on their accounts. MFA strengthens account security by requiring users to verify their identity through a second factor—typically a code from a mobile device or authentication app—in addition to their password. Simply put, users cannot gain access to Suite without that second form of verification. For teams working with sensitive media or high-profile clients that require the strictest user-level security protocols, MFA offers real-world peace of mind for everyone on the team while reducing the risk of account breaches.

Single Sign-On

Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication allows users to securely log in to Suite using their existing company credentials—typically managed through a centralized identity provider like Okta, Azure AD, or Google Workspace. Instead of juggling separate usernames and passwords for every tool, teams can gain seamless access to Suite with a single login. For IT and operations leads, SSO can simplify user management, strengthen security policies, and provide centralized control over who can access Suite and when.

Creator Delight: How Suite’s Platform Enables Secure File Streaming

In addition to earning best-in-class, independently verified certifications, Suite has developed its own infrastructure-level safeguards to support the unique demands of creative workflows.

Transactional Writes

Corrupted files are never an acceptable outcome when storing, sharing, and collaborating on media files, so we designed a system which guarantees transactional file writes.  When a transaction for a file write succeeds, there is 100% confidence that the file is correct; if a transaction fails, no updates to that file will be seen by any other user, client, or future call referencing that file. Each operation is individually verified for correctness and the transaction completes only after all operations succeed - 100% corruption-free.

Suite is the only storage platform that guarantees transactional writes for files.

Redundancy

Suite stores 100% of data to top-tier object storage data centers designed for long-term data storage. These centers implement layers of protection to ensure your data is not accessible to unauthorized identities through secure facilities with 24/7 security monitoring and strict identified hardware access policies. In addition, these systems implement data redundancy to ensure data can easily tolerate hardware and software failures—each piece of data written to the object storage system is copied exactly three times to geographically distributed data centers.

Encryption

From initial upload to final cut, all files stored on Suite are encrypted end-to-end. Suite integrates seamlessly with object storage infrastructure to guarantee that 100% of the data handled by Suite and the infrastructure is encrypted both in-transit and at-rest in the cloud. Simply put, it’s a technique ensuring that even with access to the data, only the correct people can decode and read the data. Whether you’re sharing a preview cut with a client or uploading RAW footage to color, your data stays protected every step of the way. These technical safeguards are invisible to your team—but critical to keeping your workflow seamless, reliable, and secure.

Time Machine

Mistakes happen. That’s why Suite includes a built-in Time Machine feature—giving your team the ability to roll back to any previous version of a file stored in Suite.

Whether someone accidentally replaced a critical asset or a client wants to revisit an earlier draft, Time Machine lets you instantly recover previous versions without hesitance. For creative teams, this means less stress, fewer “Oh, shoot” moments, and confidence that an edit is never really gone for good. Hopefully you’ll never have to use it—but it’s there in case you do.

User-Based Permissions

In collaborative environments, not every team member needs access to every folder or file. Moreover, providing blanket access to an entire team can create risk, confusion, or even costly mistakes. Suite’s user-specific permissions allow teams to control file access down to the individual level, ensuring that only right people see the right files at the right time.

For creative end users, this means a cleaner, more focused workspace. Editors, VFX artists, colorists, and assistants only see the files relevant to their role, without digging through folders they don’t need or accidentally modifying critical assets.

For managers and producers, managing permissions is all about control and accountability. You can grant view-only access, enable or restrict file uploads, and compartmentalize sensitive assets (like unreleased spots or brand content) until they're ready for wider review. And when freelancers roll off a project, permissions can be revoked instantly.

Security That Scales With You

Whether you're a boutique post house, a global production studio, or any company that needs to collaborate on media, Suite provides teams the tools to move fast while ensuring top-tier security. From SOC 2 compliance to TPN Certification, end-to-end encryption to real-time rollback and granular permissions, every layer of Suite is designed to keep your media protected and your team in control of your data at every step of the workflow.
