Platform Security

Mailofly is architected from the ground up with defense-in-depth security to protect your sender reputation and subscriber data.

Encryption Standards

  • In Transit: All API traffic, dashboard sessions, and SMTP connections require modern TLS (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) with strong cipher suites. Unencrypted plaintext connections are rejected.
  • At Rest: Database tables, email logs, and OAuth tokens are encrypted using AES-256 with keys managed in hardware security modules (HSM).

API Key Security

  • Prefixing: All live keys use standard mf_live_ prefixes for easy identification in secret scanners.
  • Granular Scopes: Generate keys restricted solely to sending mail or read-only access for analytics.
  • Secret Detection: Mailofly actively scans GitHub public repositories for leaked API keys. If your key is detected publicly, it is automatically revoked to prevent abuse.

Infrastructure Hardening

  • Multi-tenant data isolation with strict row-level security (RLS).
  • Automatic rate-limiting and DDoS mitigation through Cloudflare.
  • Regular third-party penetration testing and vulnerability assessments.
