Security Built Into Every Layer
Asteria Engine is engineered with security as a foundational principle. From encryption and compliance certifications to 24/7 monitoring and incident response, we protect your data so you can innovate with confidence.
Data Encryption
Military-grade encryption protecting your data in transit and at rest
Data in Transit
All communication protected with TLS 1.3 encryption. Perfect forward secrecy ensures that compromised keys cannot decrypt past sessions.
Data at Rest
Sensitive data encrypted with AES-256-GCM encryption. Encryption keys are rotated regularly and managed via our secure key vault.
Key Management
Master keys stored in HSM with strict access controls. Per-tenant encryption keys prevent unauthorized access across account boundaries.
Infrastructure Security
Hardened infrastructure with automated monitoring and rapid incident response
Container Security
All workloads run in isolated Docker containers with read-only root filesystems and minimal base images.
Network Segmentation
Production and development environments are completely isolated. Internal APIs use mTLS for service-to-service communication.
Automated Patching
Dependencies scanned daily with automated patches deployed within 48 hours for critical vulnerabilities.
Intrusion Detection
Real-time monitoring with HIDS/NIDS detection systems. Suspicious behavior triggers immediate alerts and automated response.
24/7 Monitoring

Security Best Practices for Users
Simple steps you can take to protect your account and data
Enable Multi-Factor Authentication
Always enable MFA on your account. Use hardware security keys when possible for the strongest protection against account takeover.
Use Strong, Unique Passwords
Create unique passwords for your Asteria Engine account. Use a password manager like 1Password or Bitwarden to generate and store secure passwords.
Rotate API Keys Regularly
If you use API keys, rotate them every 90 days. Immediately regenerate keys if you suspect exposure or accidental disclosure.
Configure SSO for Teams
Enterprise accounts should implement SSO (SAML 2.0 or OIDC) for centralized authentication and easier user provisioning.
Review Access Regularly
Periodically audit team members' access levels. Remove access for departed employees immediately. Use audit logs to monitor changes.
Monitor Audit Logs
Regularly review audit logs in your workspace settings. Set up alerts for unusual activity or permission changes via our webhook integrations.
Use Approved OAuth Integrations
Only authorize official Asteria Engine integrations. Be cautious with third-party apps requesting access to your Asteria Engine workspace.
Report Suspicious Activity
If you notice unauthorized access or suspicious behavior, report it immediately to our security team at security@asteriaengine.com.
