Data Security & Infrastructure

Security Protocols

Zero-Compromise Data Protection

We engineer security into every layer of our platform. From encryption to access control, your data and our readers' information are safeguarded with industry-leading standards.

🔐

End-to-End Encryption

All data in transit uses TLS 1.3. Data at rest is encrypted with AES-256. Source code, databases, and backups are secured with rotating keys.

AES-256 / TLS 1.3

🛡️

Zero-Trust Architecture

Every request is authenticated and authorized. Internal microservices communicate via mTLS, and privileged access requires MFA and time-bound tokens.

Identity-First

👁️

Privacy-First Data Handling

We collect minimal user data. Analytics are fully anonymized. No third-party tracking cookies. Reader privacy is a foundational principle, not an afterthought.

Common Questions

Security & Infrastructure FAQ

Transparent answers to how we protect your data and keep our platform running.

How do you handle data breaches? ▼

We maintain a formal Incident Response Plan aligned with NIST and ISO 27001 standards. In the event of a confirmed breach, we notify affected users within 72 hours, engage third-party forensic experts, and provide remediation steps. Full transparency reports are published quarterly.

Where is our data stored and processed? ▼

Primary infrastructure operates in EU and US regions. Reader data is stored within the same jurisdiction as the user's account. We use geo-restricted data boundaries and do not route sensitive data through third-party territories.

Can I request data deletion or export? ▼

Absolutely. Through your account settings, you can instantly export your data in JSON/CSV format or request permanent deletion. Requests are processed within 30 days as required by GDPR/CCPA.

Do you share data with advertisers or partners? ▼

Never. Aevum News operates on a subscription and institutional model. We do not sell user data, do not use programmatic ad networks, and do not share identifiable information with third parties under any circumstances.
