Infrastructure

  • Hosted on Vercel – global edge network with automatic DDoS protection
  • Database on Supabase – PostgreSQL with row-level security, encrypted at rest
  • Cache on Upstash Redis – encrypted, serverless Redis with TLS
  • DNS on Cloudflare – additional DDoS protection and SSL termination

Authentication

API Keys

  • All API keys are hashed before storage – we never store plaintext keys
  • Keys are prefixed by type for easy identification:
    • ak_live_ – merchant keys
    • ak_aff_ – affiliate keys
    • ak_onb_ – onboarding keys
  • Keys are scoped – each key only has access to the permissions you grant
  • Keys can be revoked instantly from the dashboard

Webhook Signatures

  • All outbound webhooks are signed with HMAC-SHA256
  • Signing secrets are derived per-endpoint (not shared across endpoints)
  • Timestamp validation prevents replay attacks
  • See Signature Verification for implementation details

Responsible Disclosure

If you discover a security vulnerability, please email security@agentref.co. We take all reports seriously and will respond within 48 hours.
