Education industry helpdesk privacy features

Single Sign On (SS0)

allows you to authenticate users and staff using a central Identity Provider. This means your users or employees can access the system without having to remember yet another password and gives your IT team control over password policies and access. Helpy supports SAML, LDAP, and OAuth.

Fine Grained Permissions

Determine which staff members have access to different features of Helpy, and which groups of customer tickets. This helps you enforce the minimum necessary access to potentially sensitive customer service information or functionality.

Data Masking

Prevents the storage of PII or other sensitive information in the body of support communications. This feature automatically scrubs GDPR defined PII like email addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers, IP Addresses, and credit card numbers.
