Keeping Your Data Secured

Data
All customer data is stored in the USA in multi-tenant datastores. We do not have individual datastores for each customer. We maintain strict privacy controls in our application code to ensure data privacy and to prevent one customer from accessing another customer’s data.
We have automated testing in place to ensure these controls work as expected. Additionally, we have an independent penetration test performed yearly that includes testing these controls.
Data Transfer
Authentication
Leasecake is served 100% over HTTPS.
We have two-factor authentication (2FA) and strong password policies for Google to ensure access to third-party cloud services are protected.

Security Audits
We perform an annual OWASP Application Security Verification Standard self certification. Any item that doesn’t pass must go through a remediation process.
We perform an annual independent penetration test. Any critical item found must be remediatiated immediately and all non-critical items must go through remediation. Post remediation we have a follow up penetration test to ensure we pass without any failures. We will perform additional penetration tests as needed when major updates are made to the application or infrastructure.
