At Paystrator, we uphold the highest standards of data protection to ensure our clients’ information remains secure, confidential, and uncompromised.
Our systems are built with end-to-end security in mind, following internationally recognized frameworks and certifications such as ISO/IEC 27001:2022, NIST SP 800-57, and FIPS 140-3, ensuring our approach meets both industry and regulatory expectations.
How We Protect Client Data
Paystrator enforces a zero-trust principle across all environments. This means no system, employee, or process is automatically trusted without verification. Access to client data, including credentials, user information, and passwords is strictly controlled, monitored, and segregated.
- Encryption in Transit: All communications between users, systems, and internal services are secured using TLS 1.2 or higher, protected by AES-GCM cipher suites, and enforced through HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS). Every server certificate uses RSA 2048-bit or higher keys to ensure resilience against cryptographic attacks.
- Encryption at Rest: All databases employ Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), Application-Level Encryption, and Column-Level Encryption with AES-256-GCM for personally identifiable and sensitive data. This ensures that even if unauthorized access occurs, data remains unreadable and useless.
- Credentials and Sensitive Data: Client credentials and passwords are never stored in plaintext. Instead, they are hashed and salted using industry-approved algorithms. Application secrets are securely stored and managed using our internal Vault system, with automated key rotation and lifecycle management based on NIST SP 800-57 guidelines.
Employee Access and Data Privacy Assurance
Access to any sensitive or client-related data is strictly role-based and audited continuously. Only authorized personnel with a legitimate business purpose can access specific data layers and employees cannot view user passwords or sensitive credentials under any circumstance.
This protection is enforced through:
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Least Privilege Principle (PoLP)
- Privileged Access Management (PAM) integrated with audit trails
- Data Masking and Tokenization for any sensitive data used in analysis or debugging
- Comprehensive Logging and SIEM Monitoring, ensuring any access event is recorded, monitored, and reviewed by our Security Operations Center (SOC)
Compliance
Paystrator’s security framework aligns with multiple international standards and compliance requirements:
- ISO/IEC 27001:2022 – Information Security Management System (ISMS)
- FIPS 140-3 – Validated cryptographic modules and algorithm standards
- NIST SP 800 Series – Framework for key management, incident handling, and secure cryptographic design
- OWASP ASVS & NIST CSF – For secure application development and continuous security assurance
Regular independent audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments are conducted to verify our security posture and compliance with these standards.
Security Implementation
- Internal Vault-Based Key Management: All encryption keys are automatically rotated, versioned, and revoked according to defined lifecycles.
- Secure API and Communication Policy: We enforce Content Security Policy (CSP), implement body-level encryption for sensitive API payloads, and continuously review data exposure paths.
- Multi-Layer Authentication: All access to internal tools and systems requires Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Single Sign-On (SSO) controls.
- Continuous Monitoring: Real-time threat detection and anomaly analysis are performed by automated systems backed by our Security Operations Center (SOC).
- Data Localization and Backup Security: Data is stored in secured data centers with encryption both in transit and at rest, and backups are cryptographically verified for integrity.
Paystrator combining zero-trust architecture, FIPS-certified cryptographic modules, automated key rotation, with standard of ISO/IEC 27001, Paystrator delivers uncompromising security and trust to ensuring that client data remains private, protected, and under the highest standards of global compliance.
