Security & reliability

Your account data security is our top priority. Learn about our robust data protection measures, SSL encryption, backups, and service uptime, along with our team's maintenance schedules and support options ensuring everything runs smoothly and securely.

Do you support SSL encryption for security?

Kanban Tool uses 256-bit SSL encryption to keep your data safe.

Every connection to your account is protected with HTTPS, ensuring your information stays private and secure. This encryption prevents any third party from reading or tampering with your data.

The feature is automatically enabled on all Kanban Tool accounts—no extra setup required.

What is 256-bit SSL?

SSL — Secure Sockets Layer — is a trusted security technology that creates an encrypted link between a web server and a browser.

With 256-bit SSL encryption, all data sent between your browser and the website server is securely encrypted by the sender and decrypted only by the receiver. This can prevent unauthorized parties from gaining access to sensitive, confidential, or personal information.

As the industry standard for online security, SSL is used by millions of websites to safeguard transactions and user data.

How often do you back up my data? Is it safe?

Your data’s security is our top priority. We perform daily encrypted off-site backups to ensure your information stays protected.
Additionally, access to the live database is strictly limited to a select, trusted team, and is guarded by strict internal security policies.

Can I host Kanban Tool on my own server?

Yes! We offer a self-hosted variant of Kanban Tool for companies that need full control over their data location, handling and backup procedures. Kanban Tool On-Site is available in 10-user annual license packs.

From a technical standpoint, all you need is a virtualization environment to run it smoothly on your server. For more details, visit this page or .

Kanban Tool is running slow in my browser—what can I do?

If you’re experiencing slow response times, delays, or misplaced elements, it may be due to browser compatibility issues, especially if you happen to be using Internet Explorer.

To improve performance:

  • Update your browser to the latest version.
  • If using Internet Explorer, disable the Compatibility View.
