Aligned stores customer data in AWS and does not access it. Aligned completed security testing with public companies, including penetration tests, ISO, and SOC 2. Use Room sharing permissions to control who enters each Room and how they access it. When you add sensitive information, raise the Room to Password protection - many teams use this setting when they work with banks and large companies.

Prerequisites & Requirements

  • Plan: All plans

  • Permissions: Any user with permission to share the Room.

  • Technical Specs:

    • Aligned stores customer data in AWS.

    • Aligned does not access customer data.

    • Aligned completed penetration tests, ISO, and SOC 2.

How to raise a Room’s sharing permission to Password protection

  1. Open the Room.

  2. Click Share.

  3. Under Room Access permissions, select Password protected.

  4. Optional: Replace the Room password.

  5. Share the Room link and send the password through your preferred channel.

What the Buyer sees

  • The buyer opens the Room link.

  • Aligned prompts the buyer to enter the Room password.

  • The buyer enters the password to access the Room.

How to choose when to raise permissions

  1. Use your default sharing permission for early-stage, low-sensitivity content.

  2. Switch to Password protection when you add sensitive information or when the customer requires tighter access controls (for example, banks and large companies).
