Data Encryption & Security Standards
How we protect your database credentials and API infrastructure.
1. AES-256 Cryptographic Vault
We understand the sensitivity of connecting remote databases. When you input your database password or WhatsApp API tokens into Akmond Notify, they are immediately passed through an Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) algorithm using a highly secure, randomly generated application key.
Zero-Knowledge Architecture: Your credentials are mathematically scrambled before they ever touch our database storage. Our engineering team, support staff, and database administrators cannot read your plain-text passwords.
2. Read-Only Enforcement Policy
Akmond Notify is designed as a passive monitoring system. Our Sentinel Engine only requires the ability to SELECT (read) data from your transaction tables.
We strongly mandate that all clients create a dedicated, Read-Only database user within their cPanel/server before mapping a connection to Akmond Notify. This guarantees at the database level that our system cannot modify, delete, or drop your VTU tables, ensuring absolute data integrity.
3. The Sentinel Engine Isolation
The core logic that decrypts your credentials and executes the database monitoring is structurally isolated. Our engine files and decryption keys are hosted completely outside of the public web directory (public_html).
This advanced structural obfuscation means that even in the unlikely event of a front-end web exploit, malicious actors cannot navigate to or access the core Sentinel Engine files or the `.env` vault where the master application keys reside.
4. Ephemeral Data Processing
Akmond Notify operates on a continuous, lightweight loop. When a stuck transaction is detected on your server, the data payload (Reference ID, Amount, User Phone) is held in memory just long enough to push the alert to your WhatsApp API provider.
We do not retain long-term historical logs of your users' transaction data, minimizing your exposure and ensuring compliance with modern data privacy standards.
