Security Policy

Effective Date: 10.3.2025
Last Updated: 19.5.2025

At Files 4 Share, protecting our users and infrastructure is a core mission. This policy outlines our security practices, firewall implementation, vulnerability handling, and responsible disclosure process.

1. Custom Web Application Firewall (WAF)

  • Our in-house WAF protects against XSS, SQL Injection, CSRF, RCE, file upload abuse, and more.
  • It adds custom headers:
    • X-Protected-By: Files 4 Share
    • Server: Files 4 Share
    • X-WAF: Files 4 Share
  • Layered with strict CSP, 2FA, rate limiting, and IP monitoring.
  • Audited externally by ImmuniWeb, Cloudbric Labs, and tested for OWASP Top 10 compliance.

2. Secure Architecture

  • All traffic uses Sectigo SSL with HSTS and strict TLS settings.
  • Supports latest HTTPS protocols, including HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 (QUIC) for faster, more secure connections.
  • Post-Quantum TLS Ready: Experimental support for post-quantum encryption using ML-KEM (Kyber) for forward security against quantum threats.
  • Passwords are hashed using modern secure algorithms.
  • Critical operations require 2FA and secure session tokens.
  • All input is validated and sanitized server-side.

3. Responsible Disclosure

We welcome reports of potential vulnerabilities. Please contact us at: support@files4share.com

4. Out of Scope

  • Denial-of-Service (DoS) or brute-force tests
  • Spam or social engineering attacks
  • Attacks against third-party services not controlled by Files4Share

5. Standards & Compliance

  • PCI-DSS, NIST, HIPAA, and OWASP best practices

6. Trust & Testing

  • ImmuniWeb WebSec & SSL Labs
  • Cloudbric Labs WAFER Tests
  • Qualis. SSL Labs
  • Mozila Observatory
  • Security Headers by Snyk
  • Internal automated scanners weekly
