We invest in our infrastructure to support customers with a handful of users, hundreds of users, or millions of users. The HireRoad platform infrastructure is provided by AWS, one of the most secure cloud service platforms in the world. AWS is responsible for securing the underlying infrastructure that supports the cloud, and HireRoad is responsible for anything we collect, store, or process in the cloud and/ or connect to the cloud. Backups are regularly performed following strict protocols.

Access
Only authorized employees have access to our production infrastructure, which requires strong authentication. Customer data access is limited to employees who need it to provide service, support, or troubleshooting on the customer’s behalf. Accessing customer data is done solely on an as-needed basis, and only when approved by the customer (e.g. as part of a support request), or to provide proactive support and maintenance.
