Securing your data

Each database is encrypted with a strong 256-bit password-based cipher so it is protected against un-authorized access in case of theft or break-in from a hacker or malware. Backup copies of databases are encrypted too, so you can store them on unprotected media.

Normally, your database is locked and your data is protected for un-authorized access. To unlock it, you have to provide the correct password. Your database will be auto-locked after a period of inactivity.

IMPORTANT: You have to choose a strong password for your database in order to prevent guessing of the password.

Security measures

We take the security of your data very seriously:

  • 256-bit AES encryption cipher - a standard for strong government-grade encryption
  • use of a custom database engine to encrypt every bit of your data
  • use of the open-source encryption library Bouncy Castle instead of OS or JRE encryption libraries to provide protection against possible backdoor intrusions
  • TLS (formerly SSL) connection for sync data.
