Data Protection
Comprehensive measures to protect your data and maintain compliance with international standards.
Multi-layered data protection
ARK Platforms implements comprehensive data protection measures that combine technical safeguards, organizational practices, and legal compliance frameworks to ensure the security and privacy of all personal information.
Infrastructure security
Encryption
All data is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.2+ and at rest using AES-256 encryption. Encryption keys are managed securely with regular rotation.
Access Controls
Access is restricted using the principle of least privilege. Multi-factor authentication is required for sensitive systems and elevated access is logged.
Firewalls & DDoS
Advanced firewalls protect against unauthorized access and malicious attacks. DDoS protection prevents denial-of-service attacks.
Intrusion Detection
Continuous monitoring detects and responds to unauthorized access attempts or suspicious activities in real-time.
Secure Development
Applications are developed following secure coding practices with code reviews, vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing.
Backup & Recovery
Regular encrypted backups are maintained with automated testing of recovery procedures to ensure business continuity.
