Security and Compliance

We, at Hexnode, identify data security and privacy as an integral part of our product. We have gone above and beyond to set the bar for the best security practices in the industry.

ISO 27001 certified

We think ISO 27001 standard is great for two main reasons. One, ISO 27001 makes it simple for you to make well-informed decisions without knowing the nuances of the latest information security recommendations and technologies. Two, it aligns with our core beliefs of information security and privacy compliance. Most of the security practices that this certification validates were already in place here at Hexnode.
