Network and
Application security
Data Storage
We host our services and data in Amazon Web Services’ data centers in the US.
Virtual Private Cloud
Messagely’s servers are housed within a virtual private cloud (VPC), and we use Access Control Lists (ACLs) to ensure that unauthorized requests do not get access to our network.
Back-ups and Monitoring
To back up customer data, Messagely uses an MMS backup service by MongoDB. We also produce audit records and get Logentries to analyze these. To archive our records, we use Amazon S3.
Disaster Planning
Messagely’s infrastructure and data are spread across 3 AWS availability zones.
This means our tool will function as per normal even if one of these data centers fail.
Encryption
Messagely encrypts all data that passes through the app using 256 bit encryption. We utilize TLS/SSL only API and application endpoints which are HSTS and Perfect Forward Secrecy. Our endpoints also score the highest possible rating on tests by Qualys SSL Labs.
Permissions and Authentication
Messagely makes it easy for you to limit access to customer data to select employees. The app is served on a secure HTTPS connection, and we use a combination of Single Sign-on (SSO), 2-factor authentication (2FA) and strong password policies to ensure that only authorized users get access to our cloud services.
Vulnerability scanning
Messagely utilizes a multi-pronged approach when it comes to vulnerability scanning. On top of using external security tools to check for vulnerabilities, we frequently enlist the help of security experts in conducting penetration tests. Finally, we run a “bug bounty” program on Bugcrowd to tease out additional areas of vulnerabilities.
Incident response
Messagely has a standard protocol in place, and we’re well-equipped and able to handle security issues. Our employees are aware of these protocols, and familiar with the escalation procedures to follow in the event of a security incident.
Other security features
GDPR
Messagely allows users to port or delete data, with automatic data expiration. This ensures that you’re fully compliant with the GDPR.

In accordance with local laws, Messagely performs stringent background checks on its new employees. Among other things, we verify past employment and conduct criminal checks.
