Security Checklist
Construction Software Security Checklist
Security questions usually appear late in the buying process, but they should be considered early. This checklist helps contractors and procurement teams review whether construction software can protect sensitive documents, worker records, client evidence and business data.

Field Application
Make the resource feel like part of live operations.
Connect written guidance with site activity, team briefings and the evidence records that show how the work was controlled.
Plan the work
Use each guide to decide the owners, records and review points before work starts.
Recommended check
Check user access controls, roles, module permissions and account removal processes.
Brief the team
Turn guidance into toolbox talks, instructions and visible actions for the people doing the work.
Recommended check
Ask about MFA, password controls and how administrative access is managed.
Keep proof
Connect checks, photos, sign-offs and follow-up tasks to the same operating record.
Recommended check
Confirm data protection in transit, secure storage and attachment access controls.
Security is also workflow control
For contractors, security is not only about infrastructure. It also means making sure the right people can see the right RAMS, documents, worker records, commercial data and client evidence at the right time.
Procurement teams need clear answers
A good vendor should make it easy to understand access controls, data handling, backups, responsible disclosure and support routes without forcing every buyer into a long technical review.
Access should follow the job
Construction teams need permissions that reflect projects, roles, subcontractors, workers, clients and administrators. Good access control reduces accidental exposure without blocking day-to-day delivery.
Security evidence should be easy to share
Buyers should be able to find privacy, DPA, status, support and vulnerability reporting routes quickly. Clear evidence reduces procurement friction and helps teams review risk before rollout.
Implementation Plan
Turn the process into a controlled workflow.
Zektrx helps turn repeated checks into owned actions, linked evidence and clear reporting.

Evidence Questions
Ask these before the process goes live.
Evidence question 1
Who owns this record when it is created?
Evidence question 2
What proves the latest version was reviewed or approved?
Evidence question 3
Where are photos, signatures, comments and close-out evidence stored?
Evidence question 4
Can the record be exported for a client, auditor or principal contractor without rebuilding it?

FAQs
Common questions.
What security questions should contractors ask software vendors?
Ask about user permissions, MFA, encryption, backups, monitoring, data handling, audit trails, support access, sub-processors and responsible disclosure.
Why do audit trails matter for construction software security?
Audit trails help show who created, changed, approved, issued or signed important records, which reduces ambiguity when evidence is reviewed.
Does Zektrx have a security overview?
Yes. Zektrx publishes security, trust, privacy, DPA and vulnerability reporting pages to support procurement and due diligence.
