Encryption at rest

Definition

Encryption at rest refers to the protection of stored data through encryption, so that it is unreadable without the decryption key, even in the event of unauthorised physical or logical access to the storage medium. Certyneo encrypts documents and their audit trails at rest (AES-256) on its infrastructure hosted in Germany, in compliance with GDPR requirements.
