Security and Compliance at UN1QUELY
We protect things that matter.
Protecting personal and customer confidential information is our top priority. For the sake of our customers, our business ethics and values, we don’t compromise or cut corners when it comes to data security. As part of that commitment, we operate with the utmost transparency. The following overview provides a high-level look at the ever-evolving security
practices we have in place.
We’re compliant with the highest security and privacy standards
Our encryption protocols are national-security worthy
Powered by a multi-cloud environment, we keep all data encrypted both in rest and in motion using best-in-breed security algorithms such as RSA4096, SHA256 and AES256. Data sent to or from our infrastructure is encrypted in transit via industry best-practices using Transport Layer Security (TLS). At rest, all data is subject to battle-proof encryption algorithms and stored using secret management services.
With end-to-end encryption at every stage – at rest, in transit, or in cloud storage – UN1QUELY services ensure your data is always safe, secure, and private. Even the metadata communications between your system and the UN1QUELY are encrypted for total security.
Our consent-based model gives people control over their personal and protected health information
According to Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation of 2018, personal data, including protected health data, is owned by the individual it represents, and consent to process and share that data must be “freely given, specific, and informed.” We couldn’t agree more.
When a user uses UN1QUELY services, they are sending a request to an individual for permission to access their data, empowering the average person to exercise consent and data ownership.
Our security measures are ever evolving to keep pace with the changing threat landscape
Our work on security and privacy efforts does not have an end; it’s a continuous cycle of researching, revising, implementing, testing, fixing, scaling, blocking, and permissioning. We are constantly working to meet and exceed what is asked of us from regulators, investors, partners, and users, and we collectively live the security processes on a daily basis. Security and privacy are integral to our culture. After all security is one of the core services we offer.
Data retention and removal is standardized and at the discretion of our users
All permissioned user data held by UN1QUELY is available to our customers for electronic retrieval for a period of 30 days after the expiration or termination of the Master Service Agreement. All data is then completely removed from UN1QUELY’s servers. Every user can request the removal of their personal data by contacting UN1QUELY support. Read more about our privacy settings.
We establish strong defences at points of entry
UN1QUELY developed apps and backend infrastructure, the main entry points of user data, only allows client requests using strong TLS protocols. All communication between UN1QUELY maintained infrastructure and data platforms is transmitted over encrypted tunnels.
We take all necessary infrastructure precautions
All of our services run in cloud environments. We don’t host or run our own routers, load balancers, DNS servers, or physical servers. Cloud providers we use regularly undergo independent verification of security, privacy, and compliance controls against the following standards: ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27017, SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, PCI DSS, HIPAA, CSA Star, FedRAMP, and many others.
We practice stringent network-level security monitoring and protection
We maintain our own in-house Security Operations Center. Our network consists of multiple security zones, which we monitor and protect with trusted and next-generation firewalls, including IP address filtering, to insure against unauthorized access. We deploy an intrusion detection and/or prevention solution (IDS/IPS) that monitors and blocks potential malicious packets as well as distributed denial of service (DDoS) mitigation services powered by an industry-leading solution.
We boast an industry-leading security team
Our security team comprises security experts dedicated to constantly improving the security of our organization. Our team is trained and certified in security threat detection and incident response, security engineering, penetration testing, application security, security management&compliance and latest security best practices.
We encourage responsible disclosure.
If you discover vulnerabilities in our application or infrastructure, we ask that you alert our team by contacting [email protected] please include a proof of concept in your email. We will respond as quickly as possible to your submission and won’t take legal action if you follow the responsible disclosure process:
Please avoid automated testing and only perform security tests with your own data.
Please include a proof of concept in your email.
Do not disclose any information regarding the vulnerabilities until clear approval is given.
Note that our bug bounty program is currently closed and we are not looking for new security researchers.
