Security

Last updated: March 13, 2026. At Strategical, protecting your data is foundational to our platform. This page outlines the security measures we implement to safeguard your personas, research data, and account information.

1. Data Encryption

We employ encryption at every layer:

In Transit: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. We enforce HTTPS on all connections with no fallback to unencrypted protocols.

At Rest: All stored data, including persona research, user accounts, and workshop sessions, is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. Database backups are also encrypted.

Secrets Management: API keys, tokens, and sensitive configuration values are stored in encrypted vaults and never committed to source code.

2. Authentication & Access Control

We implement multiple layers of access control:

Passwords are hashed using industry-standard bcrypt with per-user salts.

Session tokens are securely generated and expire after a configurable period of inactivity.

Role-based access control (RBAC) restricts data access based on user roles (Admin, Team, Client Stakeholder, Viewer).

Team members only see data associated with their assigned clients.

Administrative actions are logged for audit purposes.

3. Infrastructure & Hosting

Our infrastructure is designed for reliability and security:

The platform is hosted on secure, SOC 2-compliant cloud infrastructure.

Automated deployment pipelines ensure consistent and auditable releases.

System dependencies and packages are regularly scanned for known vulnerabilities.

Infrastructure access is limited to authorized personnel with multi-factor authentication.

Regular backups are performed and tested to ensure data recoverability.

4. Data Isolation

Your data is kept separate and secure:

Each client organization’s data is logically isolated within our database.

Application-level access controls prevent cross-tenant data access.

AI processing requests are scoped to your organization’s data only.

Third-party integrations (Stripe, OpenAI, Resend) receive only the minimum data necessary to perform their function.

5. Incident Response

We maintain a documented incident response process:

Security incidents are prioritized and investigated by our engineering team.

Affected users will be notified within 72 hours of a confirmed data breach, in accordance with GDPR and applicable regulations.

Post-incident reviews are conducted to identify root causes and implement preventive measures.

Critical security patches are applied promptly upon discovery of vulnerabilities.

6. Compliance & Certifications

We are committed to meeting industry standards:

Our data handling practices are designed to support GDPR and CCPA compliance.

SOC 2 Type II certification is on our compliance roadmap.

We conduct regular internal security reviews and assessments.

Third-party vendors are evaluated for their security posture before integration.

7. Responsible Disclosure

We value the work of security researchers. If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it responsibly:

Email: support@strategical.ai

Please include a detailed description of the vulnerability and steps to reproduce it.

We ask that you give us reasonable time to investigate and address reported issues before public disclosure. We will acknowledge your report within 48 hours and provide updates on our progress.
