SOC 2 Type II

Audited annually

Encrypted in transit

TLS 1.2+ for all web sessions

24/7 monitoring

Continuous threat monitoring

Least privilege

Role-based access across all systems

Governance

A documented, independently validated program

Our security program is built on documented policies and continuous monitoring, validated through independent third-party audits and certifications. It is guided by four principles.

Least privilege access

System access is limited to people with a legitimate business need, with role-based controls across all systems and applications.

Defense in depth

Multiple layers of controls protect your data, from network perimeter defenses to application-level encryption and monitoring.

Consistent application

Controls are applied uniformly across the entire platform, so there are no gaps regardless of where your data resides.

Continuous improvement

We regularly assess and strengthen our posture through risk assessments, penetration testing, and control maturity evaluations.
