Security is in our DNA
We combine enterprise-class security features with comprehensive audits of our application and processes that ensures customer and business data is always protected.
Data protection
We use the highest recommended standard of algorithms for encrypting your data, and both data-at-rest and data-in-transit are protected by default.
Application security
We take active steps to securely develop and test against security threats to ensure the safety of our customer data, among which are third-party security partners performing detailed penetration tests.
Identity and device management
Ensure only the right people and approved devices can access company information in Impero by implementing features like two-factor authentication or single sign-on.
Availability and business continuity
We maintain a disaster recovery program to ensure services remain available or are easily recoverable in the case of a disaster. We employ service clustering and network redundancies to eliminate single points of failure.


We implement security best practices.
In addition to the security measures provided by Microsoft Azure, such as AICPA SOC 2 and ISO 27001, we also meet not just industry-based compliance standards such as ISAE 3402 Type II, but the most stringent requirements, in addition to performing regular penetration tests and security audits. Part of the controls performed internally is a review of relevant audit statements covering the Microsoft Azure resources. Among these is the SoC2 report that includes:
• Backup and restoration
• Infrastructure
• Firewall
• Patching
• Antivirus
• Business continuity management
Security and data integrity
At Impero, we adhere to the strictest data protecting measures both physically and digitally. Our physical offices are subject to the highest standards of security as well as to periodical inspections.
Our cyber security is consistently examined with both internal and external penetration tests performed regularly.
Impero is hosted and protected by Microsoft Azure using their North and Western Europe data centers.
