PayLink is built with defense-in-depth security. Every layer — from the network to the application — is designed to protect your workforce data.
All connections are encrypted with TLS 1.2+. HTTPS is enforced across all endpoints. HSTS headers prevent downgrade attacks.
8 granular roles: System Admin, Owner, HR Manager, Payroll Manager, Department Manager, Supervisor, Employee, and Contractor. Every API endpoint enforces permissions.
Server-side sessions with httpOnly, secure cookies. Passwords hashed with bcrypt. Automatic session expiry and re-authentication.
Every payroll run, schedule change, shift swap, approval, and data modification is logged. Full accountability for compliance.
Stack traces, SQL errors, and internal paths are never exposed to clients in production. Generic error messages protect implementation details.
HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Referrer-Policy headers are set on all production responses.
PostgreSQL with encrypted connections. Data at rest encryption. Daily automated backups with point-in-time recovery capability.
