Security

Isolated by design.

Each machine is a hardware-isolated virtual machine on EU servers, gone when the job is done.

1 VM
per machine, with its own kernel
EU
where machines and data live
TLS
for all dashboard and API traffic

Isolation

Hardware isolation
Every machine is its own virtual machine with its own kernel. Other accounts cannot see or reach it.
Disposable disks
When a machine ends, its disk is destroyed. Nothing carries over to the next machine.

Data

European infrastructure
Runs on European infrastructure, not AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
Stays in the EU
Machines run on servers in the European Union. Disks, output, logs and images are stored there.
Encrypted in transit
Every connection to the site, the dashboard and the API uses TLS.

Access

Passwords and API keys
Passwords are securely hashed. API keys are shown once when created and are not stored in recoverable form.
Activity log
Sign-ins, failed sign-ins and account changes are visible under Activity for 12 months.
Operational access
Privileged production access is restricted and protected with multi-factor authentication.
