Data

Data Encryption#

All customer data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit via TLS.

Sensitive information like access tokens and keys are encrypted at the application level before they are stored in the database.

Data Residency#

When you create a project in an AWS region, your Postgres database, Auth service, and Storage objects are hosted in that region. Supabase offers regions across the US, EU, and Asia Pacific.

See the full list of available regions.

Backups#

All paid customer databases are backed up every day.

Point in Time Recovery allows restoring the database to any point in time. Customers from the Pro Plan have access to this feature as an add-on.

Data Processing Agreement#

A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available for customers who need a formal GDPR data processing contract. Request or view the DPA.

Configuration

Multi-factor Authentication#

Supabase allows users to enable Multi-factor authentication (MFA) on their account. MFA adds an additional layer of security to your user account, by requiring a second factor to verify your user identity.

Role-based access control#

Members of organizations in Supabase can be granted access to specific resources.

Read more about fine-grained access controls including Read-Only and Billing-Only access.

Vulnerability Management#

Supabase works with industry experts to conduct regular penetration tests.

In addition to internal security reviews, we use various tools to scan our code for vulnerabilities including GitHub, Vanta, and Snyk.

DDoS Protection#

Supabase combats Distributed Denial of Service attacks in several ways to mitigate resource abuse and prevent runaway bills.

In addition to protection at the CDN level via Cloudflare, we employ fail2ban to prevent brute force logins. Users can customize rate limits for critical API routes and set spend caps to prevent surprise bills.

Misc

Payment processing#

Supabase uses Stripe to process payments and does not store personal credit card information for any of our customers.
