Lavawall®'s data gathering approach started with Government and Fortune 50 information security audits. When our founder transitioned from audit and assurance work to a Managed IT Service Provider (MSP), he was shocked that basics like Multi-Factor Authentication were painful to implement in some RMMs like ConnectWise and it was impossible to turn off remote access services in others like Datto RMM and SuperOps.

Lavawall® was built from the ground up with these concerns and the Minimum Viable Secure Product requirements in mind.

Some of the controls we implemented include:
  • PassKeys as the preferred primary authentication at no additional cost
  • Single Sign-on using modern, maintained, and industry-standard protocols for all customers at no additional cost
  • Multi-Factor Authentication as a non-negotiable default
  • Encrypting communications the same way as TLS again within the TLS tunnel, so we can allow TLS inspection without breaking like Huntress or disclosing security vulnerabilities to eavesdroppers.
  • Encouraging external vulnerability reports and customer testing
  • Passwords checked against popular disclosed passwords, hashed before they leave your computer, and then stored using Argon2id
  • Not requiring the use of passwords at all. We consider them a temporary backup authentication in case you can't use passkeys or SSO.

Lavawall® scanning computers are on dedicated servers in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Lavawall® databases and front-end systems are hosted with AWS in Montréal, Québec, Canada.
We send emails through AWS in Ireland and dedicated servers in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
We send text messages for additional identity verification through Twilio in the United States.
We store executables and pass requests through Cloudflare at your nearest edge location.
We use Cloudflare for risk management, turnstile, and web application firewall services.
We use LeadPages for landing pages.
We use Google and Facebook for analytics on our public-facing pages, but they do not have access to the console.
We integrate with third-party tools, such as Microsoft, Google, Huntress, Screen Connect, Axcient, and Datto in their respective locations. However, you must initiate these integrations through single sign-on or by enabling them in your Lavawall® console.
