How we protect our customers

2 Factor Authentication (2FA)

We strongly encourage our customers to enable 2FA on their accounts. This is to protect your account and funds from unauthorised access. Find out more about 2FA.

  • An internal security team
  • Partnerships with multiple industry-leading security firms
  • Round-the-clock monitoring by a security operations centre
  • Alignment with stringent regulatory expectations and industry-standard certifications

Ethical disclosure programme

  • Consider your activity as authorised conduct
  • Not initiate legal action against you
  • Take steps to make it known that your actions were conducted in compliance with this Policy, should a third party initiate legal actions against you.

Programme guidelines

We kindly request that security researchers:

  • Make a good faith effort to avoid privacy violations, degradation of user experience, disruption to production systems, and destruction of data
  • Only interact with accounts you own, or with explicit permission of the account holder
  • Conduct analysis limited to the Demo (Practice) environment
  • Use exploits only to the extent necessary to confirm the presence of a vulnerability and once established, do not abuse the vulnerability further
  • Do not exfiltrate data, establish command line access and/or persistence or pivot to other systems
  • Use the defined communication channels (as identified on this page) to report vulnerability information to us
  • Keep information about any suspected or resolved security issues you’ve discovered confidential between yourself and OANDA until we provide express consent
