EchoWave Security

At EchoWave.io, we take the security of your data very seriously. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of security to protect your information. Here’s how we ensure your data is secure:

Data Encryption

• In Transit: We use TLS (Transport Layer Security) to encrypt data in transit, ensuring that your information is protected as it travels between your device and our servers.
• Passwords: Passwords are never stored in plain text, we use firebase, that in turn uses a modified version of scrypt to ensure passwords are always hashed.

User Authentication

We use Firebase for user authentication, which offers robust security features:

• Two-Factor Authentication: To provide an extra layer of security, we support multi-factor authentication for user accounts.
• Single Sign-On (SSO): If you would like to work with us on setting up SSO for your team, please reach out to our support.

Access Control

Access to data is restricted based on roles:

• User Roles: Different roles (e.g., admin, editor, viewer) ensure that users only have access to the features and data necessary for their role.
• Staff Access: Our internal staff has limited access to user data, and only authorised personnel can access sensitive information.
