5. Data Security

We employ advanced, multi-layered security measures to protect your information:

5.1 Technical Measures

• Encryption in Transit: All traffic encrypted via TLS 1.2/1.3 (HTTPS). SSL certificates managed and auto-renewed
• Encryption at Rest: Database encrypted with AES-256. Backups encrypted
• Data Isolation: Row Level Security (RLS) architecture ensures each Organization can only access its own data. Enforced at the database policy level
• Authentication: JWT-based auth with Supabase Auth. Passwords hashed with bcrypt. MFA (multi-factor authentication) supported
• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Feature and data access restricted by user role within the Organization
• DDoS Protection: Cloudflare WAF and DDoS protection active on all traffic
• Content Security Policy: Restrictive headers preventing XSS and injection attacks

5.2 Organizational Measures

• Restricted Access: Database access limited to authorized personnel only, with audit logging
• Least Privilege: Employees access only information required for their role
• Monitoring: Anomaly detection and monitoring systems operate 24/7
• Backups: Daily automatic backups retained for 30 days. Backups encrypted and stored in a separate geographic region
• Security Reviews: Periodic security reviews and dependency updates

No security method is perfect. We follow industry-standard practices and continuously update our protections. If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it immediately to security@jumpstart.co.il.
