Security

Security at Fortress.

We take security seriously. Fortress Finance is built with institutional-grade security practices to protect your data and financial information.

Our Security Practices

AES-256-GCM Encryption

All API keys and sensitive credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM with unique keys per account.

Mandatory 2FA

Every Fortress account requires two-factor authentication via TOTP. No exceptions.

Read-Only Access

Exchange connections use read-only API permissions. Fortress can never move, trade, or withdraw your assets.

Account-Scoped Access

Every data query is scoped to the authenticated account, so users can only access their own data.

Audit Logging

All API actions are logged with user ID, action type, timestamp, and IP address for compliance.

Infrastructure Security

Hosted on Vercel with automatic HTTPS, DDoS protection, and edge network distribution.
