In ProdPad security measures are in place to protect your company’s future

For the deepest understanding of how we keep our customers’ data safe and to view our real-time security and compliance status, visit our Trust & Compliance Center.

Data Protection

All data entered into ProdPad is encrypted at rest and in transit. We use AWS Key Management Store to manage the encryption at rest using AES-256 keys.

All data stores are snapshotted nightly and stored for 30 days. These backups are encrypted. Point-in-time logs complement the nightly snapshots, enabling us to recover data within seconds of a failure and quickly rebuild in another region should it be required.

Layered Protection

At ProdPad we layer protections. Firewalls exist at the host, network, and application level. These firewalls have content policies for both inbound and outbound content. Intrusion detection and response systems exist at both the network and host level. Automated vulnerability scans are run regularly (at least once a week) on all levels.

Audit logs exist on all levels to support comprehensive compliance and security requirements. All code is statically analyzed and run through automated and manual QA processes.

Support and SLAs

ProdPad is based in the UK, so our support team is available to help you during UK business hours. However, we’re a pretty responsive team, so you’ll often find us responding to your requests earlier or later than you’d expect. We also have an active Slack community for active customers, which can be a big help if you just have a question on how to use the system.

Our Slack community is moderated by the ProdPad team, and no member is permitted to solicit or spam other members of the community. We are a friendly bunch, so just ask!
