Security

Security Overview

At link2go.io, we take security seriously. We implement industry-standard security measures and best practices to protect your data, ensure service availability, and maintain the integrity of our platform.

Our security program is designed to protect against unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security threats while maintaining the functionality and performance of our service.

Encryption in Transit

• All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher
• HTTPS is enforced for all connections to our service
• We use strong cipher suites and secure protocols
• SSL/TLS certificates are regularly renewed and monitored

Encryption at Rest

• Sensitive data stored in our databases is encrypted
• Database backups are encrypted and stored securely
• Encryption keys are managed separately from encrypted data
• We use industry-standard encryption algorithms (AES-256)

Password Security

• Passwords are never stored in plain text
• We use bcrypt for password hashing with appropriate salt rounds
• Password strength requirements are enforced
• We support secure password reset flows

Server Security

• Servers are regularly updated with security patches
• Unnecessary services and ports are disabled
• Intrusion detection and prevention systems are in place
• Firewalls and network segmentation protect our infrastructure
• Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments

Access Controls

• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrative access
• Role-based access control (RBAC) for internal systems
• Principle of least privilege for all user accounts
• Regular review and revocation of unnecessary access
• Audit logging of all administrative actions

Monitoring and Logging

• Continuous monitoring of system performance and security events
• Automated alerts for suspicious activities
• Comprehensive logging of authentication attempts and access
• Regular review of security logs and events

Secure Development

• Security best practices integrated into our development process
• Regular code reviews for security vulnerabilities
• Automated security testing and dependency scanning
• Input validation and output encoding to prevent injection attacks
• Protection against common vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10)

Authentication & Authorization

• Secure JWT-based authentication tokens
• Token expiration and refresh mechanisms
• Rate limiting to prevent brute-force attacks
• Account lockout after failed login attempts
• Support for Google OAuth 2.0 for secure third-party authentication

API Security

• API endpoints require authentication
• Rate limiting on API requests
• Input validation and sanitization
• CORS policies to restrict unauthorized access
• API keys are securely stored and can be rotated

Data Minimization

• We only collect data necessary to provide our service
• Personal data is retained only as long as necessary
• Data deletion requests are honored promptly
• Regular data audits to identify and remove unnecessary data

Backup and Recovery

• Regular automated backups of all critical data
• Encrypted backups stored in secure locations
• Backup restoration procedures are tested regularly
• Disaster recovery plan is documented and maintained
• Point-in-time recovery capabilities where applicable

Privacy Protection

• Strict access controls on personal data
• Data processing activities are logged and audited
• Compliance with applicable data protection regulations
• Clear privacy policy outlining data handling practices
• User rights are respected and honored

We are committed to maintaining compliance with relevant security and privacy standards:

• Regular security assessments and penetration testing
• Adherence to industry best practices and security frameworks
• Compliance with applicable data protection laws
• Third-party security audits and reviews
• Continuous improvement of security practices

In the event of a security incident, we have procedures in place to:

• Quickly detect and assess security threats
• Contain and mitigate the impact of incidents
• Notify affected users as required by law
• Investigate root causes and implement preventive measures
• Document and learn from security incidents

If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it responsibly to security@link2go.io. We appreciate responsible disclosure and will work with you to address any issues.

Security Best Practices for Users

While we work hard to secure our platform, you also play an important role in keeping your account safe:

• Use a strong, unique password for your account
• Enable two-factor authentication if available
• Never share your account credentials with others
• Log out from shared or public computers
• Be cautious of phishing attempts and suspicious emails
• Keep your browser and operating system updated
• Review your account activity regularly
• Report suspicious activity immediately
