Our security team continually evaluates new tools to increase the coverage and depth of these assessments. Evernote defines its network boundaries using a combination of load balancers, firewalls, and VPNs. We use these to control which services we expose to the Internet and to segment our production network from the rest of our computing infrastructure. We limit who has access to our production infrastructure based on business need and strongly authenticate that access.
Evernote never stores your password in plaintext. We select the number of hashing iterations in a way that strikes a balance between user experience and password cracking complexity. We limit failed login attempts on both a per-account and per-IP-address basis to slow down password guessing attacks.
All users can generate codes locally using an application on their mobile device or can choose to have the codes delivered as a text message. Evernote gives you a way to create notes in your account by sending emails to a unique Evernote email address.
To protect you from malicious content, we scan all email we receive using a commercial anti-virus scanning engine. When you receive an email from Evernote, we want you to be confident that it really came from us. Securing our Internet-facing web service is critically important to protecting your data. Our security team drives an application security program to improve code security hygiene and periodically assess our service for common application security issues including: CSRF, injection attacks XSS, SQLi , session management, URL redirection, and clickjacking.
Our web service authenticates all third party client applications using OAuth. OAuth provides a seamless way for you to connect a third party application to your account without needing to give the application your login credentials. Once you authenticate to Evernote successfully, we return an authentication token to the client to authenticate your access from that point forward.
This eliminates the need for a third party application to ever store your username and password on your device. Every client application that talks to our service uses a well-defined thrift API for all actions.
Please see dev. We consider your data private and do not permit another user to access it unless you explicitly share it. For information on how to delete notes, please see this help center article. We securely erase or destroy all storage media if it has ever been used to store user data.
This end-to-end encryption feature only lets someone that knows the passphrase decrypt the text. We never receive a copy of your passphrase or the encryption key we derive from it. If you forget your passphrase, we cannot recover your data. If a thief steals a device you have Evernote installed on, they will be able to access your Evernote data as easily as your email, photos, and other applications on that device.
To protect yourself against this situation, you should enable the security controls available to you in your device's operating system. In most cases, you only need to log into Evernote on your phone, tablet and desktop computer once. If you lose one of these devices, you should revoke its access to your account. Follow these instructions. Every email that Evernote sends is cryptographically signed and sent from IP addresses we publish.
If you receive an email from one of these domains, you can trust it. If you receive an email that looks like it is from Evernote, but the sender address is not one of those domains, we did not send it and you should delete it. A common way for you to get malware on your computer is by visiting a site that tries to exploit a security vulnerability in your browser or the browser plugins you have installed. Follow the steps for your browser:.
