On Demand Migration Current - Security Guide - Teams Migration

Location of customer data

When a customer signs up for On Demand, they select the region in which to run their On Demand organization. All computation is performed and all data is stored in the selected region. The currently supported regions can be found here: https://regions.quest-on-demand.com/.

Teams conversation messages intended for processing to rewrite users and teams mentions or attachments links are temporary stored at Azure Virtual Machine disks before being delivered to recipients. The data is encrypted at rest.

Windows Azure Storage, including the Blobs, Tables, and Queues storage structures, are replicated three times in the same datacenter for resiliency against hardware failure. The data is replicated across different fault domains to increase availability. All replication datacenters reside within the geographic boundaries of the selected region.

Privacy and protection of customer data

The most sensitive customer data processed by On Demand Migration for Teams is the content of Teams conversations including file attachments.

  • File attachments are temporary stored during migration. The data is deleted once migration task for the team is finished. The data is encrypted at rest when stored
  • All migration project data and logs are encrypted at rest.

To ensure that customer data is kept separate during processing, the following policies are strictly applied in On Demand Migration for Teams:

  • All temporarily artifacts created for each customer during migration is stored in separate Azure storage containers and will be saved for a maximum of 30 days for troubleshooting use. Temporary artifacts such as migration logs may contain metadata of objects, but never their content.
  • This information is protected through the Azure built-in data-at-rest server-side encryption mechanism. It uses the strongest FIPS 140-2 approved block cipher available, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, with a 256-bit key.
  • A separate Elasticsearch server instance is used for each customer.
  • A separate Azure Virtual Machine is used as mail transfer agent for each customer.

Separation of customer data

A common concern related to cloud-based services is the prevention of commingling of data that belongs to different customers. On Demand Migration for Teams has architected its solution to specifically prevent such data commingling by logically separating customer data stores.

Customer data are differentiated using a Customer Organization Identifier. The Customer Organization Identifier is a unique identifier obtained from the Quest On Demand Core that is created when the customer signs up with the application.

This identifier is used throughout the solution to ensure strict data separation of customers' data in Elasticsearch storage and during processing.

A separate Elasticsearch server instance is used for each customer.

Network communications

Internal network communication within Azure includes:

  • Inter-service communication between On Demand Migration for Teams components, On Demand Core and the On Demand Platform
  • Communication to customer Microsoft Entra ID tenants

The following scheme shows the communication configuration between key components of On Demand Migration for Teams.

Figure 1: Component Communication Architecture

The network communication is secured with HTTPS and is not visible to the external public internet.

Inter-service communication uses OAuth authentication using a Quest Microsoft Entra ID service account with the rights to access the services. No backend services of On Demand Migration for Teams can be used by end-users.

On Demand Services accepts the following network communication from outside Azure:

  • Access to On Demand Migration web UI.
  • PowerShell cmdlets to access the On Demand Migration for Teams backend. These PowerShell cmdlets are used internally by Quest Support in read-only mode to access customers' Quest On Demand organizations, migration projects, tasks, events, and object metadata for troubleshooting purposes only.

External network communication from outside Azure to On Demand Services include:

  • On Demand Migration user interface access
  • PowerShell cmdlets accessing On Demand Migration backend (PowerShell cmdlets are used internally by Quest Support)

All external communication is secured with HTTPS.

The On Demand Migration for Teams user interface uses OAuth authentication with JWT token issued to a logged in user.

PowerShell cmdlets used by Quest Support are using Microsoft Entra ID authentication to access the On Demand Migration for Teams service. The user of the PowerShell API should be a Quest Microsoft Entra ID member with the appropriate role assigned.

There are no unsecured HTTP calls within On Demand Migration for Teams.
