Mailday Security Overview
Last updated: 2026-05-13
Mailday takes a defense-in-depth approach to keeping member and workspace data secure. This page summarizes the technical and organizational measures we implement today. A more detailed description forms Annex II to our Data Processing Addendum.
If you discover a security issue, please report it to security@mailday.ai. We support responsible disclosure and will not pursue legal action against good-faith research conducted within these guidelines.
Encryption
- In transit: TLS 1.2 or higher for all customer-facing traffic. TLS termination at the AWS Application Load Balancer with auto-renewing certificates.
- At rest: AES-256 for primary databases, file storage, and backups.
Access control
- Role-based access controls in-application (Member, Workspace Admin, Workspace Manager, Super Admin) enforced at every API boundary.
- Internal access to production systems is restricted to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis, with mandatory multi-factor authentication and periodic access reviews.
- Admin actions on customer accounts are logged to an immutable audit log.
Personnel
- Confidentiality obligations apply to all personnel with access to customer data.
- Background checks where lawful.
- Security awareness training during onboarding and at least annually thereafter.
Network and infrastructure
- VPC isolation; security groups enforce least-privilege ingress.
- Web Application Firewall in front of public endpoints.
- Amazon GuardDuty for cloud-infrastructure threat detection.
- Rate-limiting on authentication and other write endpoints.
Email security
- SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured on all sending domains.
- SES bounce and complaint feedback wired into automatic suppression lists.
- Size limits and source checks on inbound and outbound messages and attachments. Deeper malware scanning is on our roadmap.
Logging and monitoring
- Centralized audit logging for administrative and security-sensitive actions.
- Application observability via LaunchDarkly (errors, performance, optional session replay) — see the Cookie Policy for the customer-facing privacy posture.
- Anomaly alerts route to the on-call team.
Vulnerability management
- Regular dependency scanning and patching.
- Coordinated vulnerability disclosure to security@mailday.ai — see § Responsible disclosure below.
Incident response
- Documented incident response plan.
- 24/7 on-call rotation for production.
- Security incidents involving customer Personal Data are reported to customers without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours, as required by GDPR.
Backups and resilience
- Encrypted backups with 90-day retention.
- Redundancy and geographic distribution within hosting regions.
- Periodic restoration testing.
Vendor management
- Due diligence on every third-party processor.
- Written data-protection agreements with each subprocessor.
- Periodic review of our Subprocessor List.
Privacy by design
- Data minimization at collection.
- Purpose limitation and retention limits documented in the Privacy Policy § 9.
- Role separation between application logic and observability data.
Certifications and roadmap
We are planning SOC 2 Type II certification. Updates will be posted here.
Responsible disclosure
If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please:
- Email security@mailday.ai with a description of the issue and reproduction steps.
- Give us a reasonable opportunity to investigate and remediate before public disclosure.
- Avoid privacy violations, destruction of data, and interruption or degradation of our Service.
- Do not test against accounts you do not own, run automated scans without prior authorization, or perform denial-of-service tests.
We will acknowledge receipt within 5 business days and keep you informed as we investigate.
