Data Security
Your data, handled with care.
Most clients ask some version of “who can see my data, and where does it go?” Here’s how we approach it.
Data Security & Storage
Where does your data live?
Depends on the project — usually a cloud database (Azure SQL, PostgreSQL) in a region you specify, or on your own servers if you need it on-premises. Either way, you own it.
Encryption — at rest and in transit
Every database I build is encrypted at rest and all connections use TLS. That means your data is protected whether it’s sitting in storage or moving between your app and the database.
Access control & audit logs
Role-based access means people see only what they need — a field technician doesn’t get access to the full landowner database, a manager gets summary views without raw records. Every change is logged: who did what, and when.
Government & federal contracts
I build on FedRAMP-authorized cloud infrastructure (Azure Government, AWS GovCloud) and structure deployments to align with federal compliance requirements. Full FedRAMP authorization is an organizational process, not something a single contractor delivers — but you’ll be starting on the right foundation.
Sensitive & private data
Private landowner records, PII, health data — if your project involves information people expect to stay private, that shapes the architecture from day one: what gets encrypted, who has access, what gets logged, and how data is handled when a user leaves the project.
Backups & recovery
Every database gets a backup plan — scheduled snapshots and a documented restore procedure. You’ll know what the recovery process looks like before launch, not after something goes wrong.
Questions about your specific setup?
Tell us what you’re working with — landowner records, federal data, PII — and we’ll walk through how the architecture would protect it.
