Enterprise Security

Built for institutions that can't compromise.

FERPA Compliant
Student education records protected by design. Role-based access, audit logging, and data minimization built into every query.
School-Scoped Data
Every query is scoped to your institution. Schools never see each other's founders, programs, or outcomes data.
Encrypted at Rest
All data encrypted in transit and at rest. Session-based auth with scrypt password hashing and CSRF protection on every mutation.
VC Opt-In Only
Investors only see ventures that have been explicitly listed. No student data is shared without consent.
Domain Verification
Email domain auto-detection for 15+ schools. Unverified users are flagged for admin review before accessing network data.
Rate Limiting
Database-backed sliding window rate limits on all sensitive endpoints. Protection against brute force and API abuse.
Founded meets FERPA requirements for handling student education records at accredited institutions.
