  • encryption of data in transit (TLS) and at rest;
  • access controls, multi-factor authentication, and role-based permissions;
  • regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing;

  • incident response and breach notification protocols.

While we take all reasonable steps, no system can be guaranteed 100% secure. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and OTPs.
