LeanSuite Trust Center: Secure your operations, build with confidence

LeanSuite protects your operational data: it has a SOC 2 Type 1 report, is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure, encrypted in transit and at rest, with single sign-on, multi-factor authentication and role-based access.

  • SOC 2 Type 1 Compliant

  • Secure cloud hosting

  • Encrypted in transit and at rest

  • Single sign-on (SSO)

OUR COMMITMENT

Layered security for your data

Our security program covers our infrastructure, development practices and company policies, and is checked by independent auditors.

  • Compliance and verification

    Independent auditors test our security controls. You can download our SOC 2 Type 1 report once you accept our confidentiality terms.

  • Infrastructure and network security

    LeanSuite runs on secure cloud infrastructure with redundancy, disaster recovery, network monitoring, firewalls and DDoS mitigation.

  • Data encryption

    All data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES-256, including production databases, file stores and backups.

  • Access control

    Custom roles per module limit each user to their department, pillar or team. Single sign-on uses SAML 2.0 or OAuth with Microsoft Entra ID and Okta, and multi-factor authentication is available.

    Scope, rules and what to include

RESPONSIBLE DISCLOSURE

Report a vulnerability

If you believe you have found a security issue in LeanSuite, email support@theleansuite.com. It is our only security mailbox, and our team reads it. We acknowledge every report and credit the ones that lead to a fix.

What is in scope

  • theleansuite.com and its subdomains (www, help)
  • theleansuite.app, the customer application
  • starter.theleansuite.com, the free Starter plan
  • The LeanSuite iOS and Android apps

Third-party services we use (for example our help center, scheduling and chat vendors) have their own programs; report issues in them to that vendor.

What to include

  • The URL, endpoint or app screen affected, and the account type you used
  • Steps to reproduce, with a request and response or a short recording
  • What an attacker could do with it, in your own assessment
  • How to reach you for questions and for credit
Email support@theleansuite.com

Testing rules

  • Test only against accounts you own. Do not read, change or delete other customers' data.
  • No denial of service, spam, social engineering of our staff or customers, or physical attempts.
  • Give us a reasonable time to fix the issue before you publish anything about it.
  • Automated scanning is fine at low volume; stop if we ask.

What we do in return

  • We acknowledge your report and keep you informed while we fix the issue.
  • Valid reports are credited by name or handle once the fix is live, if you want the credit.
  • We do not run a paid bounty program and do not pay in advance of disclosure.
  • Researchers who follow these rules will not face legal action from us for their testing.
