Data Security & Protection
GurkhaX applies the same security principles to the protection of your data that we recommend to our clients:

- We conduct periodic internal access reviews to enforce least-privilege principles
- Engagement data for security assessments is handled under strict confidentiality agreements and stored in access-controlled systems
Despite these measures, no transmission over the internet is guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us has been compromised, please contact us immediately at hello@gurkhax.com.
