# How secure is cloud-based invoice processing?
Modern cloud-based invoice processing systems implement enterprise-grade security: (1) Encryption - AES-256 encryption for data at rest and TLS 1.3 for data in transit; (2) Access Controls - role-based permissions, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and single sign-on (SSO); (3) Infrastructure Security - hosting on secure platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) with SOC 2 Type II certification; (4) Data Privacy - GDPR, CCPA, and regional privacy law compliance; (5) Audit Trails - immutable logs of all data access and changes; (6) Regular Security Audits - penetration testing and vulnerability assessments; (7) Backup and Disaster Recovery - redundant backups and business continuity plans; (8) Vendor Security - third-party security certifications and insurance. Reputable platforms often exceed the security capabilities of on-premise systems while providing better accessibility.
