What is Labfolder, and how does it benefit my research team?
Labfolder is an electronic lab notebook (ELN) designed to help labs document, organize and manage experiments efficiently. Unlike traditional paper notebooks, it centralizes all your data, streamlines workflows and improves collaboration among team members. It also enhances data security and ensures compliance with industry standards, making it a valuable tool for modern labs.
How does Labfolder ensure data security and privacy?
Data security and privacy is a top priority in our ELN. You remain the sole owner of your data, which is only accessible by you unless you choose to grant access to others. All data is securely encrypted with SSL (256-bit), and Labfolder’s servers are based in Germany, ensuring compliance with EU and German privacy laws. To further protect your information, we perform nightly backups, retaining data for up to 30 days. In the event of account termination, all your data will be permanently deleted once you confirm the export of your information. These measures ensure the highest level of security for your valuable research.
How does Labfolder support compliance with industry standards and regulations (e.g., GLP, FDA 21 CFR Part 11)?
Labfolder supports compliance with key industry standards and regulations, including GLP and FDA 21 CFR Part 11, by offering features designed to ensure data integrity, traceability, and security. These include record history, electronic signatures and secure data storage, which help meet the documentation and verification requirements of regulated industries. Labfolder also provides role-based access control to ensure that only authorized personnel can view or edit sensitive data. For more information explore Labforward’s white papers giving technical insights and guidance on the most common regulatory frameworks adopted within laboratory environments.
Can I access Labfolder from any device?
Yes, the ELN is browser-based and can be accessed from any modern web browser (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) on different operating systems (e.g. Windows, MAC, Linux), guaranteeing a seamless user experience across various devices like desktops, tablets and smartphones. This ensures you can access, update, and manage your data from anywhere with an internet connection, making it ideal for remote or field-based research.
