Whistleblowing: 3 good reasons to choose a secure software, fully aligned with regulations

Companies or Public Administrations needing to adopt an online tool for the management of offenses reports may be confused by the offer that the current software landscape provides. However, not all software know how to respond to real needs, nor they can ensure constant regulatory alignment, application security, and usability. Moreover, due to the complexity of the matter, getting the software might be just a step of a more complex need to receive a 360° consultancy and support service (possibly from the same company which developed the software).

What are then the crucial features that Whistleblowing software should have to meet these stringent needs? We have identified three excellent reasons for choosing the software Legality Whistleblowing.

In addition to the strictest organizational and compliance requirements, the software offers:

A solid IT system capable of rationalizing the management of reports and reporting cases: through the facilitated and guided management of the reports and the investigation process that follows, the timing and the possibility of error are reduced. Specifically, using a simple and automated case assignment system, managers are assigned reports based on their type and can also interact with third parties.
A reporting system capable of guaranteeing security and secrecy of information: thanks to the use of an exclusively dedicated infrastructure and the application of asymmetric encryption on contents and attached files, the most inflexible needs in terms of security and confidentiality are met. Access and data management is not only run in compliance with the regulatory framework but is also certified by rigorous standards like ISO / IEC 27001 (Information Management System) which guarantee the integrity and confidentiality of the data processed. No data can be shared with third parties, and only the whistleblower is aware of the encrypted key to access the information.
The reduction of the barriers to reporting thanks to the guarantee of anonymity of the whistleblower: deciding to report an offense is not a simple process, which the whistleblower can do light-heartedly. What is key here is adopting software that does not generate difficulties and is capable of encouraging complaints starting from the guarantee of anonymity throughout the process: the aim is to guide the whistleblower in the various steps, making it clear that whoever receives the report has the will to listen.
