Security

How we protect your data and keep your information safe

Our Security Commitment

At Evo Board, security is not an afterthought—it's fundamental to everything we do. We are committed to protecting your data and maintaining the highest standards of security. This page outlines the measures we take to keep your information safe and secure.

Data Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard TLS (Transport Layer Security) 1.3. This ensures that your information cannot be intercepted or read by unauthorized parties during transmission.

Data at rest is encrypted using AES-256 encryption, one of the strongest encryption standards available. This means your data is protected even when stored on our servers.

Authentication & Access Control

  • Secure passwords: We use bcrypt hashing with salt rounds to securely store your passwords. Passwords are never stored in plain text.
  • Session management: Secure session tokens are used to authenticate your requests. Sessions expire after periods of inactivity.
  • Multi-factor authentication: We support optional two-factor authentication (2FA) to add an extra layer of security to your account.
  • Access controls: We implement role-based access control to ensure that only authorized personnel can access your data.

Infrastructure Security

Hosting & Cloud Security

Our infrastructure is hosted on industry-leading cloud providers that maintain the highest security certifications, including:

  • SOC 2 Type II compliance
  • ISO 27001 certification
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • 24/7 security monitoring and incident response

Network Security

  • Firewalls and intrusion detection systems
  • DDoS protection and mitigation
  • Regular security updates and patches
  • Network segmentation and isolation

Application Security

  • Secure coding practices: We follow OWASP security guidelines and best practices in our development process.
  • Regular security audits: Our codebase undergoes regular security reviews and automated vulnerability scanning.
  • Dependency management: We regularly update dependencies and monitor for known security vulnerabilities.
  • Input validation: All user inputs are validated and sanitized to prevent injection attacks.
  • API security: Our API uses authentication tokens and rate limiting to prevent abuse.

Data Protection & Privacy

  • Data minimization: We only collect and store the data necessary to provide our Service.
  • Privacy controls: You have full control over what data is shared publicly through your privacy settings.
  • Data retention: We retain your data only as long as necessary and delete it when you delete your account.
  • Backup security: Regular backups are encrypted and stored securely.
  • GDPR compliance: We comply with GDPR and other applicable data protection regulations.

Payment Security

We use PCI DSS compliant payment processors to handle all payment transactions. We never store your full credit card information on our servers. All payment data is processed securely through our payment partners, who maintain the highest security standards.

Payment information is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is restricted to authorized personnel only.

Monitoring & Incident Response

  • 24/7 monitoring: We continuously monitor our systems for suspicious activity and potential threats.
  • Automated alerts: Security events trigger immediate alerts to our security team.
  • Incident response plan: We have a documented incident response plan to quickly address any security issues.
  • Regular audits: We conduct regular security audits and penetration testing.
  • Vulnerability disclosure: We have a responsible disclosure policy for security researchers.

Employee Security

All employees and contractors who have access to user data undergo background checks and sign confidentiality agreements. Access to user data is granted on a need-to-know basis and is regularly reviewed and revoked when no longer necessary.

We provide regular security training to our team to ensure they understand and follow security best practices.

Third-Party Security

We carefully vet all third-party services and vendors that have access to or process your data. We ensure they meet our security standards and maintain appropriate security certifications.

All third-party integrations are reviewed for security implications, and we use secure APIs and authentication methods when connecting to external services.

Your Role in Security

Security is a shared responsibility. Here's what you can do to help keep your account secure:

  • Use a strong, unique password for your account
  • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) if available
  • Never share your password or authentication tokens
  • Log out from shared or public devices
  • Keep your devices and browsers updated
  • Be cautious of phishing attempts and suspicious emails
  • Review your account activity regularly

Security Updates & Notifications

We regularly update our security measures and will notify you of any significant security changes or incidents that may affect your account. In the event of a security breach that may impact your data, we will notify affected users as required by law.
