security

Your data, handled with care.

Releasedog stores release notes, not secrets. Still, we treat every byte like it matters — because your work does. Here's how we keep it safe.

how we protect data

Six things we do. Every day.

Encryption in flight and at rest

All traffic uses TLS 1.3. Data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 via our managed Postgres provider.

Managed infrastructure

Hosted on Vercel with Neon Postgres. Automatic scaling, DDoS protection, and region-pinned data.

Modern authentication

Sessions managed by Better Auth with rotating tokens, bcrypt password hashing, and rate-limited sign-in.

Least-privilege access

Admin access is gated by SSO and audited. No engineer accesses production customer data for debugging.

Monitoring and alerting

Errors, anomalies, and sign-in patterns are tracked in real time. On-call engineers get paged within minutes.

Compliance in progress

We follow SOC 2 controls today and are working toward a formal Type II report. Happy to share details on request.

We're a small team, so we pick battles carefully. These are the ones we fight by default.
