Using SimScale
How is SimScale protecting my data?
When data is transferred to or from the SimScale platform, it is protected with industry standard encryption technology. We exclusively use AES encrypted hard-drives on our servers as well as in external data centers to ensure highest data security. Your password is not stored in plain text but only as salted hash. That is, in a form that makes it impractical for anyone to find out your password even with access to our database. As stated in our terms and conditions, we will not sell, trade or give away your CAD or simulation data. We protect your data by redundantly backing it up to multiple encrypted backup servers.
