Trust & Security
Security at Vesta Plus
Vesta Plus safeguards the compliance data Quebec organizations trust us with. Here is how we protect it — in plain language.
Security isn't a feature we bolted on; it's built into how the product stores data, authenticates users, and handles payments. The measures below are live in production today.
Encryption
Sensitive personal information — including breach-incident details, affected-individual descriptions, internal notes, and privacy-officer contact information — is encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM, an authenticated encryption standard. All traffic to and from the application is protected in transit with TLS (HTTPS).
Authentication & access control
Accounts are protected by a modern authentication system with mandatory email verification and optional Google or Microsoft single sign-on. Passwords are salted and hashed, never stored in plain text. Every request is authorized against the signed-in account, so your data stays isolated from other organizations.
Payments
Billing is handled entirely by Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified provider. Vesta Plus never sees or stores your full card number.
Your data, your rights
You stay in control of your information, in line with Quebec's Law 25:
- →Export a complete copy of your data at any time (data portability).
- →Permanently delete your account and all associated data (right to erasure).
- →Manage your marketing-communication consent from your settings.
Infrastructure
Vesta Plus runs on managed, enterprise-grade infrastructure (Vercel and Neon) with encryption at rest and automated backups. Our infrastructure providers maintain SOC 2 Type II compliance. Application secrets are kept out of source code and injected only at runtime.
Application hardening
The application ships with strict HTTP security headers (HSTS, Content-Security-Policy, and clickjacking protection), rate limiting on sensitive endpoints, and audit logging of administrative and data-export actions.
