Where is my data stored?

Overview

You may need to know where Code42 stores your data in order to plan for disaster recovery, or to meet privacy compliance requirements. This articles describes where your data is stored.

Considerations

• Data is always encrypted when in servers in our data centers as well as when in transit. For more information, see Code42 architecture.
• To enforce secure access to your data, ensure that firewalls are open only to designated ports. See IP addresses and ports used by the Code42 platform.

  Metadata is stored in AWS regions in the United States (for example, us-east-1).
