Committed to your safety

Layered security

Your assets are kept in offline storage systems that use multisignature technology, role-based governance protocols, and multiple layers of biometric access controls.

Fully certified

Our systems and processes undergo regular audits and are certified to meet international standards, including ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27701:2019, and ISO 22301:2019.

Privacy first

Your personal and financial information is only stored and processed in cloud services that meet our strict infrastructure security requirements.

Defending your crypto against bad actors

*Luno takes a wide variety of preventative measures to defend your crypto against threats, but there is still a risk of scams, hacks, loss of private keys and other financial crimes. Luno will never ask for your password, will never provide financial advice, and will never ask you to transfer funds to an external wallet.

Authorisation

Luno ensures that you first authorise any high-risk actions that are performed on your account, such as sending crypto.

Firewalls

Access to our internal processes is enforced through firewalls and are not exposed to the internet. Our firewall policies are designed to allow minimum permissions for different applications and roles to interact. All application and database servers are running inside private networks, with isolation between staging and production environments. Public-facing services are made available by dedicated load balancers that only handle HTTPS requests.
