Security & data

Live payroll data comes later — after the security work is ready.

SecondProof is still being prepared for its first live-data pilots. Early development partner sessions therefore use realistic fictional payrolls and non-personal examples, so bureaux can judge the product without handing over employee data.

What we use now

Realistic fictional payrolls and non-personal examples from your current process are enough to test whether SecondProof is useful and easy to work with.

Before any live-data pilot

Security is a separate go/no-go step

Real payroll data — even if names or identifiers have been masked — will only be considered after the hosted product, user access, backups, data handling, contracts and independent security checks are ready.

Before live payroll data

What needs to be in place first.

This list shows the work SecondProof is requiring of itself before a live-data pilot. It is not a claim that every item is already complete.

Secure production hosting and database
Secure sign-in and multi-factor authentication
Strict separation between each bureau's data
Encryption, backups and tested recovery
Logging of important user and system activity
Clear data retention and deletion procedures
Data-processing, privacy and contractual documents
Independent security review and appropriate insurance
Plain answers

We prefer clear explanations to vague security claims.

As each production safeguard is completed, this page will describe exactly what is in place — where data is hosted, who can access it, how it is protected, how backups work, how long information is kept and how it is deleted.

Payroll assurance. A higher standard.
