Security

Your people data,
protected at every layer

Anthropon is built with security as a foundation, not an afterthought. Enterprise-grade protection for every company, regardless of size.

Data Encryption

All data encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.3. Database connections use encrypted channels. Sensitive fields like SSN and bank details receive additional field-level encryption.

Multi-Tenant Isolation

Each organization's data is logically isolated at the database level. Row-level security policies ensure one tenant can never access another's data, even in the event of application bugs.

Multi-Factor Authentication

TOTP-based MFA for all user accounts. Admins can enforce MFA organization-wide. Compatible with Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, and other TOTP apps.

Role-Based Access Control

Four configurable roles — HR Admin, Manager, Employee, and IT Admin — each with granular permissions. Users only see the data and actions relevant to their role.

Comprehensive Audit Trail

Every action is logged with user identity, timestamp, IP address, and the details of the change. Audit logs are immutable and retained according to your data retention policy.

Session Management

Automatic session expiry, secure HTTP-only cookies, and the ability to revoke all active sessions. Admins can force logout for any user in their organization.

Security in depth

A closer look at how we protect your data across every layer of the stack.

Infrastructure Security

Hosting

Deployed on industry-leading cloud infrastructure with SOC 2 Type II certification. All servers run in private subnets with no direct internet access.

Network Security

Web Application Firewall (WAF), DDoS protection, rate limiting, and IP-based access controls. All internal communications use encrypted channels.

Backups

Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery. Backups are encrypted and stored in a separate geographical region. Tested regularly.

Monitoring

24/7 infrastructure monitoring with Prometheus and Alertmanager. Automated alerting for anomalies, errors, and security events.

Application Security

Input Validation

All inputs validated and sanitized server-side using Zod schemas. Protection against SQL injection, XSS, and CSRF attacks.

Authentication

Secure password hashing with bcrypt (cost factor 12). Email verification required. Account lockout after failed attempts. Session tokens rotated regularly.

File Security

All uploaded files scanned for viruses and malware before storage. File type validation, size limits, and content-type verification.

API Security

Rate limiting on all endpoints. API key authentication for programmatic access. CORS properly configured. Request logging for forensic analysis.

Compliance & Privacy

SOC 2 Readiness

Anthropon is built with SOC 2 Type II controls in mind. We are actively pursuing certification and expect to complete our audit in 2026.

GDPR Compliance

Data minimization, right to erasure, data portability, and consent management. We process data in accordance with GDPR principles and can sign DPAs.

Data Retention

Configurable data retention policies. Automated purging of deleted records after the retention period. Export your data at any time in standard formats.

Vulnerability Management

Regular dependency scanning, OWASP ZAP security testing, and penetration testing. Responsible disclosure program for security researchers.

Our security commitments

We never sell your data

Your employee data belongs to you. We never sell, share, or use it for advertising. Period.

Minimal access by design

Our team uses least-privilege access. Only a small number of senior engineers can access production data, and all access is logged.

Transparent incident response

In the unlikely event of a security incident, we commit to notifying affected customers within 72 hours with a full incident report.

Your data is portable

Export all your data at any time in CSV or JSON format. No vendor lock-in. If you leave Anthropon, your data goes with you.

Responsible disclosure

We welcome security researchers. Report vulnerabilities to security@anthropon.com and we'll respond within 48 hours.
