Security
Last updated: January 2, 2026
1. Infrastructure
Geniy is built on industry-leading secure infrastructure powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS):
- Frontend Hosting: AWS Amplify with automatic SSL and global CDN distribution.
- Backend Hosting: AWS EC2 with App Runner for isolated, scalable compute instances.
- Database: Amazon RDS (PostgreSQL) with encryption at rest and automatic backups.
- File Storage: AWS S3 with server-side encryption (SSE-S3).
- Payment Processing: Paystack (PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant).
2. Authentication & Access
We implement robust authentication measures:
- Password Security: bcrypt hashing with automatic salt generation.
- Session Management: Secure JWT tokens with expiration.
- Workspace Isolation: Strict role-based access control (RBAC) ensures only authorized members can access workspace data.
- Audit Logging: All sensitive operations are logged for security monitoring.
3. Data Protection
We employ strict measures to protect your data:
- Encryption in Transit: All data is encrypted via TLS 1.2+ (HTTPS).
- Encryption at Rest: Business context and sensitive data encrypted with AES-256.
- Database Isolation: Workspace data is logically isolated with row-level security.
- Secure File Handling: Uploaded documents are stored with restricted access policies.
4. AI & Third-Party Security
Our AI integrations prioritize your privacy:
- Google Gemini: Enterprise API with zero data retention for training.
- No Cross-Workspace Data Sharing: Your data is never used to train models or shared with other users.
- API Key Security: All third-party API keys are stored encrypted and never exposed to the frontend.
5. Survey & Response Security
Survey responses are protected with:
- Unique, non-guessable survey URLs.
- Optional respondent anonymity settings.
- Encrypted storage of response data.
- Rate limiting to prevent abuse.
