Built around the working day

How do you give people access without giving everyone the same access?

A team member, manager and business owner do not all need the same information or controls. Start with what each person needs to do. Set access around those responsibilities, review approved devices and keep the process clear when someone joins, changes role or leaves.

Give each person the access their job needs, with clearer control when roles or devices change. Our all-in-one software brings permissions into everyday working practices. Premium salons, aesthetic clinics and multi-location teams can review access by responsibility, helping staff find the information they need while limiting access to other records.

The right access, for the right responsibility.

An online salon management system needs access decisions that reflect everyday work. Review who can use your salon booking software, who can see the salon CRM and which devices are approved. Individual accounts, suitable permissions and regular reviews support your wider security approach.

The tools your team will use

Which security controls are built into Salon Manager?

Two-factor authentication

Add a second verification step at sign-in. This helps reduce the risk that a compromised password leads straight to unauthorised account access.

User access levels

Choose what each role can view or change. Restrict unnecessary access to sensitive areas and review permissions as responsibilities change.

Approved-device controls

Choose which devices can access Salon Manager. A new or unapproved device can require approval before it becomes trusted.

Encryption

Encryption helps protect information in supported storage and transmission scenarios. It reduces the risk of information being readable when accessed without authorisation.

Cyber essentials certification

Salon Manager is Cyber Essentials certified. Ask for current certification details when reviewing the technical controls that help protect against common cyber attacks.

Independent penetration testing

Annual independent penetration testing looks for vulnerabilities using realistic attack techniques. Findings help identify weaknesses that need attention.

From features to everyday work

Which security controls support everyday salon work?

Make it work your way

How should a salon review staff and device access?

  1. 01

    List people and responsibilities

    Review who needs access and which tasks each role performs. Include managers, reception, practitioners and any central team.

  2. 02

    Check permissions and devices

    Apply suitable access levels, review approved devices and confirm the sign-in controls used by your team.

  3. 03

    Review when things change

    Revisit access after staff changes, lost devices or a suspected incident. Train the team to report concerns promptly.

What should you ask a salon software provider about security?

The best salon software for your business should give you clear control over accounts, permissions and devices. Ask to see access controls in practice. Review account protection, device approval, staff departures and access to client data. Request current assurance and data-handling information so your business can assess the setup properly.

When reviewing salon software for groups, check role permissions and location access together.

For the wider salon software system, compare packages and inclusions and see the full feature range.

For independent background, read the NCSC explanation of Cyber Essentials. This explains the scheme; it is separate from your own review of Salon Manager’s current assurance information.

If you choose an AI salon receptionist, include its handling of client information in your wider data review. Ask about access, call-recording settings and retention before agreeing the setup.
