Enterprise-grade data protection and compliance

Remote offers a secure platform for global payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance to help you grow your global team with confidence. We make the security of your data and the data of your employees a top priority.

Infrastructure security

Built-in security you can trust

We built our platform and our company with security in mind.

  • Our infrastructure lives in isolated networks with restricted, fully auditable access.
  • We protect our systems with advanced firewalls, which include security threat detection and prevention mechanisms.
  • To ensure both compliance and protection, we trust Amazon Web Services as our cloud provider, which complies with the strictest industry standards: SOC 1,2,3, ISO 27001/27017/27018, PCI-DSS

Business continuity and reliability

A dedicated security team at your service

Our dedicated Security team ensures your business is safe with comprehensive security practices:

  • Application security audits: We test for vulnerabilities and maintain audit logs of application accesses and changes to bolster network security.
  • Data security: We take the safety of private information and employee data seriously, so we encrypt all data both while in transit and while at rest.
  • Internal security: We follow the Least Privilege Principle to segregate system access to essential personnel only. All our internal tools and systems require SSO, and we conduct regular recertification and training sessions to meet our own rigorous standards.

2FA and SSO

In order to provide stronger security for Remote users and their data, we have enabled two-factor authentication (2FA) and single sign-on (SSO) during login.

2FA requires users to provide a code sent to their mobile device via an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Duo Mobile. SSO can be enabled on a company-wide basis, allowing users to log into the Remote platform securely using their company credentials.
