Data encryption
Event Notifications stores and encrypts details that are related to your destinations like email (sender, recipients, subject), or SMS (sender, recipient, details).
Access to Event Notifications takes place over HTTPS and uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt data in transit.
For more information on supported TLS ciphers, see TLS cipher support.
If you attempt to use a cipher that is not on this list, you may experience connectivity issues. Update your client to use one of the supported ciphers. If you are using openssl, you can use the command openssl ciphers -v at the command line (or, for some installations of openssl, use the -s -v options) to show a verbose list of what ciphers your client supports.
Compliance readiness
Event Notifications meets controls for global, industry, and regional compliance standards, including ISO 27001/27017/27018/27701, and others.
