Our Commitment

At Citadex, security is foundational — not an afterthought. We handle brand-critical data and take that responsibility seriously. This page outlines the technical and organizational measures we employ to protect your data.

Infrastructure & Hosting

• All services are hosted on AWS with data centers in the US and EU regions.
• Production infrastructure runs in isolated VPCs with strict network access controls.
• Automated scaling and redundancy ensure 99.9% uptime SLA.
• All server instances are hardened following CIS benchmarks.

Data Encryption

• All data in transit is encrypted using TLS 1.3.
• All data at rest is encrypted using AES-256.
• Database backups are encrypted and stored in geographically separate regions.
• API keys and secrets are managed through a secure vault system and never stored in source code.

Authentication & Access Control

• User authentication is handled via industry-standard OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect protocols.
• All passwords are hashed using bcrypt with per-user salts.
• Role-based access control (RBAC) is enforced at the application level.
• Internal access to production systems requires MFA and is logged for audit purposes.

Application Security

• Our codebase follows OWASP Top 10 secure development practices.
• We perform regular dependency audits and automated vulnerability scanning.
• Input validation and output encoding are enforced to prevent injection attacks.
• All API endpoints require authentication and enforce rate limiting.

Data Privacy & Compliance

• We are committed to GDPR compliance for all users, including data minimization, right to erasure, and data portability.
• We do not sell, share, or monetize your data with third parties.
• Scan results and brand data are isolated per account — no cross-tenant data access is possible.
• For details, see our Privacy Policy.

Incident Response

• We maintain a documented incident response plan with defined escalation procedures.
• In the event of a security incident affecting your data, we will notify you within 72 hours as required by GDPR.
• Post-incident reviews are conducted to prevent recurrence.

Responsible Disclosure

We welcome security researchers to report vulnerabilities responsibly. If you discover a security issue, please contact us at:
