The platform is hosted in an ISO 27001 certified data center and meets the standards set by the Safer Technologies 4 Schools framework. Developed by MUSAC Ltd, Helix draws on over thirty years of experience in providing support to New Zealand educational institutions, ensuring it meets the unique needs of schools in the region.
