Security and Privacy at Linchpin

Security is at the heart of what we do—helping our clients improve their security and compliance posture starts with our own.

Governance

Linchpin’s Security team establishes policies and controls, monitors compliance with those controls, and proves our security and compliance to third-party auditors.

Data Protection

Data at Rest

All data, including customer information, is encrypted when stored, enhancing security and ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the information. This measure reflects our commitment to maintaining high standards of data security and instilling trust in our clients.

Enterprise Security

Endpoint protection

All corporate devices are centrally managed and are equipped with mobile device management software and anti-malware protection. Endpoint security alerts are monitored with 24/7/365 coverage. We use MDM software to enforce secure configuration of endpoints, such as disk encryption, screen lock configuration, and software updates.

Secure remote access

Linchpin secures remote access to resources and client devices using LogMeIn Central.

Identity and Access Management

Linchpin employees are granted access to applications based on their role and automatically de-provisioned upon the termination of their employment. Further access must be approved according to the policies set for each application.
