Protecting your data
Whenever you use a Plaid-powered app, we’re working behind the scenes to protect your financial information. Our security practices are designed to meet or exceed the industry standards that banks and leading technology companies use. They include:
End-to-end data encryption
The combination of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) help keep your personal information safe end-to-end.
Strong authentication
Plaid protects your data on our systems and requires multi-factor authentication for added security.
Cloud infrastructure
Plaid uses secure cloud infrastructure technologies to enable you to connect quickly and safely.
Robust monitoring
The Plaid API and all related components are continuously monitored by our information security team.
Third-party security reviews
Security researchers and financial institutions regularly audit Plaid’s API and security controls.
