Storage is encrypted to a strength of AES-256.This pertains not only to the customer database, but also data backups. In addition, our container-based infrastructure leverages a container-optimized operating system root filesystem. This mounts the underlying file system as read-only and prevents an attacker from owning the system. More information on COS can be found here: https://cloud.google.com/container-optimized-os/docs/concepts/security
Data encryption in transit
All communication channels to our production environment are TLS encrypted to a strength of AES-256.Care Managers access the system using a current Internet browser over a TLS encrypted communication channel.
Mobile Users access the system using our custom smartphone app, also over TLS encrypted communication channel.
