As part of our information security process, users must create a unique password. However, you’ve probably wondered what steps we take to protect your personal information. In this article, we’ll explore three reasons why you should place your trust in impō.
When you use impō, you can rest assured that your information will not fall into the hands of a hacker. How do we ensure this? Our platform and application were built based on recognized secure development standards and are comparable to those used online by banking institutions. They were also subject to rigorous security testing by external firms with expertise in the field. As you can see, we work hard to pinpoint and eliminate vulnerabilities before hackers become aware.
When developing our websites and applications, we used Microsoft Azure, an ultra-sophisticated open and flexible cloud computing platform offered by our partner Microsoft. One of Azure’s benefits is the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL), a software that allows developers to build secure applications. Furthermore, Azure Active Directory (AAD) allows us to manage user identities and access. Naturally, Azure offers several other services and software as part of their security practices.
When you click on the “Privacy Policy” link on the bottom right of the impō homepage, you can view our Information Security Policy and online security measures. In concrete terms, we undertake to protect your personal information and not divulge it, unless we’re required to do so (to send your tax returns to the Canada Revenue Agency and Revenu Québec, for example). This also involves implementing measures to ensure information protection such as the creation of a security and prevention team that monitors your electronic transactions.
As you can see, you don’t have to worry about a security breach. Thanks to our sound decisions regarding security and ongoing monitoring, you can sleep soundly. Ōh so reassuring!
