Security Information
Enterprise-grade security is built into our DNA. Discover the exact protocols, encryption standards, and threat mitigation frameworks Akira Technology Solutions utilizes to protect your platform experience.
LAST UPDATED: MAY 02, 2026
Identity & Access Management
We utilize state-of-the-art authentication frameworks to ensure that only you can access your account. Our Client Portal is engineered to prevent unauthorized access, brute-force attacks, and credential stuffing.
- ●WebAuthn & Passkeys: Akira fully supports passwordless authentication via biometric Passkeys (Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello) using asymmetric public key cryptography.
- ●Advanced 2FA (MFA): We support Time-Based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) via Authenticator Apps, SMS verification, and cryptographic Recovery Codes.
- ●Secure OAuth Linking: Sign in securely via Google, Apple, Microsoft Azure, Discord, or Facebook. We only request your email and basic profile data from these providers.
- ●Active Session Control: Users can remotely invalidate active login sessions across all devices simultaneously from their Security Dashboard.
Data Encryption & Storage
Encryption in Transit
All communications between your browser and Akira's servers are encrypted using TLS 1.3 (Transport Layer Security) protocols. We enforce strict HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) policies, ensuring that your connection cannot be downgraded to an insecure protocol.
Encryption at Rest
All persistent data stored within our cloud database architecture is encrypted at rest using industry-standard AES-256 encryption. Passwords are never stored in plain text; they are hashed utilizing Argon2 and bcrypt cryptographic algorithms.
Network Infrastructure
Our platform is deployed on scalable, distributed edge networks designed to eliminate single points of failure and mitigate aggressive cyber threats.
WAF & DDoS Mitigation
Our DNS and Edge caching are routed through Cloudflare's Enterprise Network. This provides a robust Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter out SQL injections and XSS attacks, alongside unmetered L3-L7 DDoS mitigation.
Serverless Architecture
By leveraging serverless environments through Vercel and AWS, we minimize the attack surface area of our application. APIs execute in isolated sandbox instances, drastically reducing the risk of server compromise.
Vulnerability Management
We treat system integrity with the highest priority. Continuous integration and monitoring are standard procedures.
- Automated Scanning: Our CI/CD pipelines run automated dependency checks via tools like Snyk and Dependabot to identify and patch vulnerabilities before code reaches production.
- Incident Response: In the highly unlikely event of a data breach, we have strict, predefined playbooks to isolate systems, patch the exploit, and notify affected users within 72 hours per POPIA regulations.
Zero-Trust & Internal Auditing
We operate on a strict Zero-Trust network architecture. Our internal staff, administrators, and technicians do not have unrestricted access to your data.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Data access is provided on a strict policy of least-privilege. Customer support agents can only view data necessary to fulfill a specific request (such as an order number), and developers cannot directly query production databases without specific authorization.
Audit Logs
All administrative actions, data queries, and configuration changes within Akira's backend systems are comprehensively logged and monitored. We maintain these audit trails to ensure complete internal accountability.
