Security

Your security is our highest priority. Sleep well knowing your data is always backed up and safe.

Bank-Level Payment Security

Kiara integrates with Stripe to process all rent payments and invoices. Payment data is tokenized and encrypted end-to-end, meeting PCI DSS Level 1 compliance—the most stringent security standard in the payment industry. Kiara never touches or stores sensitive payment information; card numbers and bank account details are handled directly by Stripe's infrastructure.

Secure Financial Connections

Kiara uses Plaid for bank account verification and transaction data access—the same infrastructure that powers Venmo, Robinhood, and over 8,000 financial applications. Bank connections are established through OAuth-based authentication, meaning your credentials never pass through Kiara's systems. All data is transmitted over TLS-encrypted channels with read-only API access for automated expense categorization and payment reconciliation.

Enterprise-Grade Data Protection

End-to-end encryption
All data at rest is encrypted using AES-256 encryption with separate key management. Data in transit uses TLS 1.3 with perfect forward secrecy.

Role-based access controls
Granular permission models ensure landlords and tenants access only their authorized data.

Automated backups
Continuous backup replication across geographically distributed data centers with point-in-time recovery capabilities.

Compliance & Certifications

Kiara maintains SOC 2 Type II certification and GDPR compliance, meeting the strictest standards for data security and privacy protection.
