Data Protection

Multi-Tenant Isolation

Each organisation's data is completely isolated using database-level row-level security (RLS). Even if there were a bug, the database prevents cross-tenant data access.

Backup & Recovery

Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery capability. Geo-redundant storage and regular backup testing ensure your data is always safe.

Data Encryption

All data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Passwords use bcrypt hashing. Additional encryption for tax numbers and financial data.

Hosted on AWS Infrastructure

Our application is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), one of the world's most secure cloud platforms. AWS maintains numerous compliance certifications:
