Security at Kontent.ai.

General

At Kontent.ai, privacy and security are paramount. We have embedded security in everything we do, including Security Development Lifecycle (SDLC) in our Agile processes. This helps us reduce the number of security flaws and their severity. Read more about SDLC for agile.

Moreover, all our development team members must attend unique security training focused on writing secure code, doing a security code review, and performing security testing. We also regularly do a code review as well as website security scans. The security review is performed:

  • manually—by our internal team and external penetration testers
  • automatically—we use scanners and other security tools to ensure Kontent.ai is free of any security vulnerabilities

Security reviews cover exploitations, including the most frequently occurring vulnerabilities defined as TOP 10 by OWASP standards. Any found vulnerability is inspected by our security experts and fixed within a few hours/days, based on its severity.

Data storage

Kontent.ai stores the data in Microsoft Azure storages. You can choose to store your project data in a data center in Europe (the Netherlands), the United States (Virginia), or Australia (East Coast). By choosing the location of the data center, your project data and tracked visitor data are stored in the selected area. Project data represents all your content created within the Kontent.ai application. This does not include the user (meta)data required for the Kontent.ai service to work, which will always be stored in the data center located in West Europe. You can find more information about data centers here.

Kontent.ai uses a global Content Delivery Network (CDN) powered by Fastly to deliver content from your website. The CDN has edge nodes all around the world, ensuring fast content delivery no matter the destination.

All data is encrypted by default. We also back up the data daily and store the backups for 30 days.

Availability

We continuously monitor all our services to ensure the highest availability. You can find the status information of all our services on this status page, together with information about the planned maintenance. The Enterprise and Scale plans automatically come with a guaranteed Service Level Agreement (SLA) on the service availability, and you can optionally get an SLA on support response time.

Payment information

Kontent.ai uses FastSpring as a payment provider, and we do not store any credit card information. FastSpring processes payment data securely. All FastSpring stores are PCI compliant and adhere to PCI DSS.
