Security and administration
Roles, audit trail and verified backups
Attendance data is used to pay salaries: it must be accurate, protected and recoverable. Tempo limits who sees and changes what, records every sensitive action in a trail whose integrity can be checked, and verifies each backup by reopening it.
Roles and permissions
Five roles are predefined — owner, HR manager, supervisor, reception, report viewer — and you can create custom roles. A supervisor only sees their departments; personal information (phone, national ID, address) is hidden from most roles. The national ID number is encrypted.
Audit trail
Every sensitive action is logged: who changed what, when, before and after, and why. Entries are chained together; “Verify integrity” detects a change or a deletion in the trail.
Backups and restore
- Back up to a USB drive or a network folder, on demand or on a schedule
- Each backup is verified by reopening the copy
- Backups can be encrypted with a password (keep it away from the PC)
- A restore is staged and applied at the next start, after a safety backup of the current state
- Automatic backup at the first start after an update
Where your data lives
On the company’s PC. Tempo needs no internet and sends nothing: no cloud, no telemetry, no update check. Atlaxys Consulting has no remote access to your data and receives no copy, unless you send a backup or a diagnostic file to support (the diagnostic contains no personal data).
Faces and fingerprints stay on the terminals. An encrypted copy in Tempo exists only if the employer turns the option on; it is off by default. See biometrics and privacy.
