How does Stackfield protect your data?

1. Step

Two-Factor Authentication

In order to strengthen the security of your account at the login, you can activate the two-factor authentication. Should your password be compromised, this will prevent a login by unauthorized persons.

Using a YubiKey additionally secures the access to Stackfield and helps to verify the user.

2. Step

Server located in Germany

Stackfield’s server are located in Germany. Therefore we meet the European Data Protections Directives. This means for example that you can save files with sensible customer data without violating the laws.

3. Step

End-to-End Encryption

RSA-2048 & AES-256

Our unique End-to-End Encryption encrypts your data by using a unique combination of AES and RSA algorithms. For the encryption with AES a key length of 256 Bits is used, while the RSA encryption takes place with a key length of 2048 Bits. Hereby all relevant data are de- and encrypted directly in the browser. In this way, we ensure that no unauthorized persons - not even we as platform provider - can decrypt or view your data. All relevant data are thus transferred encrypted to our servers and stay encrypted all in rest.

Each data room is encrypted separately with an automatically generated password. The user does not need to remember these passwords to access the data of the data room - the standard login password serves this need.
