Security
How we protect your data and identity
Passwordless Authentication
CoreID uses one-time codes sent to your email for authentication. We never store passwords. This eliminates password-related security risks like breaches, reuse, or weak passwords.
- Each sign-in requires a unique, time-limited code
- Codes expire after a short period
- Your email account remains your primary security layer
Encryption
All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest:
- In Transit: TLS 1.3 for all communications
- At Rest: AES-256 encryption for stored data
- End-to-End: Sensitive data encrypted before storage
Infrastructure Security
Our infrastructure follows security best practices:
- Hosted on secure, compliant cloud infrastructure
- Regular security audits and penetration testing
- Automated vulnerability scanning
- Strict access controls and monitoring
- Regular backups with encrypted storage
Data Minimization
We collect only the data necessary to provide CoreID services. You control what information is shared:
- Emergency Card data is optional and user-controlled
- Linked app permissions are explicit and revocable
- You can delete your account and all data at any time
Session Management
You can view and manage all active sessions:
- See where you're signed in
- Revoke access from any device or browser
- Sessions expire after periods of inactivity
Incident Response
We maintain an incident response plan and will:
- Notify affected users promptly if a security incident occurs
- Work to remediate issues quickly
- Provide transparent communication about impacts
- Learn and improve from incidents
Your Role in Security
While we secure CoreID, you play a crucial role:
- Protect your email account (use strong passwords and 2FA)
- Don't share your sign-in codes
- Review active sessions regularly
- Report suspicious activity immediately
Security Updates
We continuously improve our security practices. This page is updated to reflect current security measures.
