Data and encryption

SaaS infrastructure runs on AWS eu-central-1 (Frankfurt). Data does not leave the EU.

  • All data in transit encrypted with TLS
  • All data at rest encrypted (AWS-managed encryption / KMS)
  • Encryption keys managed in AWS KMS with IAM-restricted access
  • Data backed up regularly, backups encrypted
  • Data does not leave the EU
  • GDPR Data Processing Agreement available
  • Subprocessor list published

Access and authentication

Access is identity-based. SSO and MFA are the perimeter.

  • SSO via your existing identity provider, all plans
  • MFA required for all production and administrative access
  • Role-based access, least-privilege principle
  • Access rights reviewed periodically and revoked within 48 hours of offboarding
  • Threat detection and edge controls in place for all production infrastructure
  • Network segmentation and environment separation between development and production

Application security

Security is part of every code review and release gate, not a final checklist.

  • Security review at design stage for all new features
  • Code review for all significant changes
  • Static analysis and dependency scanning in CI
  • We run Bytesafe Dependency Firewall on our own development pipeline

Vulnerability management

Findings are triaged by severity. Fixes are tracked against internal SLA targets.

  • Findings triaged by exploitability and exposure in the application context
  • Compensating controls applied where upstream fixes are not yet available
  • Audit logging across all production infrastructure

Who we are

Bytesafe is built and operated by Bitfront AB, incorporated in Sweden. We have been working on dependency security tooling since 2018.

Security is part of how we operate and develop our products: restricted access, secure development practices, vulnerability handling, and operational monitoring.

For organizations with strict compliance requirements, both on-premise and partner-managed deployments remove Bytesafe from the data path entirely.

Common questions
