Storing your Data

Your data is stored securely on our servers. We use military grade encryption to ensure your data is well protected and stored on our server.

We pay special attention to security for our application and our servers. We have an experienced team that uses the best engineering practice and tools to develop the product.

We use AES 256 bit encryption and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Our files are stored on Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3). Amazon S3 itself has its own robust security policy of its own, details of which can be found here

Some of the key security features of Amazon AWS

1. Amazon S3 is accessible via SSL encrypted endpoints.
2. Data is encrypted by 256 bit AES encryption before been stored on the server.
3. Amazon EC2 provides a complete firewall solution. Only explicitly opened ports are allowed with the possibility of restricting only certain IPs to access the servers.
4. Amazon uses Standard Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation techniques such as syn cookies and connection limiting.

Backing up your Data

Dropmysite, Resellers's backup servers connect to your web server using secure FTP connection (when available). We use a secure connection to fetch data from your database server for backup. All the files that are fetched are encrypted. Thus your data is always secure and protected.

Public key authentication is an option for website backups. This is on top of using military grade encryptions and ciphers to retrieve the information. This ensures all data is transmitted securely while we back them up.

Access to Data

Your data can only be accessed by your account. No other user with a Dropmysite, Resellers account has access to your data. Dropmysite, Resellers employees are prohibited from viewing your account and backups. We follow best-in-class practices where we have a small team of trusted and verified employees who must be able to access user data for the reasons stated in our privacy policy (e.g., when legally required to do so). We have a strict policy and access controls for these employees that prohibit them to access the data except for these rare situations. All employees are required to act under our strict compliance guidelines. We have proper security policies in place to ensure that your files are protected from unauthorized access.
