In addition, HubSpot’s Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) prevention defenses protect your site and access to your products from attacks.

Does HubSpot incorporate security into its software development lifecycle (SDLC)?

Yes! HubSpot code is high quality from conception to deploy. We use automated static code analysis alongside human review to ensure development best practices are implemented across our thousands of daily code pushes. Responsive software development means new features, resiliency improvements, and bug fixes arrive hundreds of times a day, seamlessly.

Are physical security protections in place to protect my data?

Yes! HubSpot products are hosted with the world’s leading data center providers. Access to these data centers is strictly controlled and monitored by security staff, tight access control, and video surveillance. Our data center partners are SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified and provide N+1 redundancy to all power, network, and HVAC services.

Are diverse data centers used?

Yes! The HubSpot infrastructure is distributed between three distinct availability zones. We use multi-vendor diversity to ensure that a single failure does not negatively impact our customer base.
