How can I keep my short links secure?

Security is an important consideration when choosing a URL shortener, QR code generator, and link management solution. Not only do you need to meet data privacy guidelines such as GDPR and CCPA, it's also important to follow your company's internal compliance guidelines. Unlike other providers, BL.INK has invested resources and works with you to meet your specific compliance needs.

As your company's security needs grow, BL.INK grows with you. Whether it's streamlining provisioning and de-provisioning or meeting regulatory requirements, BL.INK works with you. Whatever your requirements—from IT, HR, procurement, legal, or data teams—we'll meet your compliance needs.

Compliance evolves, and so does BL.INK

Whether you’re considering BL.INK as your link management tool, getting started with onboarding at BL.INK, or you’ve been a customer for years, we keep the security and compliance conversation open as your use of BL.INK grows among teams and users.

We regularly run check-ins with our clients. For some customers, we have annual checks in place, as we understand that compliance and privacy needs may fluctuate or change over time. Got new MFA or SSO processes? Need to provision or de-provision users though an existing system? We are here to help.

Compliance has always been front of mind for BL.INK, and we actively take steps on our side to ensure our clients (and their clients) are safe, secure, and operating within established guidelines.

BL.INK's team puts security first internally

Our team, processes, and product were all built with compliance, privacy, and security top of mind. At BL.INK, we recognize that enterprise organizations often require strict guidelines, and that sometimes those guidelines change.

Our team regularly goes through internal training to verify we’re up-to-date on the most recent information, following the standards and best practices set by our many customers.

BL.INK welcomes your security requirements

Clients tell us that other link management providers will not do security reviews or meet their compliance standards. BL.INK is different, because, from the beginning, we focus on the needs of organizations and businesses—not just individuals. We strive to meet all compliance needs, whether it requires a specific configuration, hardware structure, or compliance around SSL certificates. Your company's security is paramount to BL.INK.

If you have stringent requirements for compliance, security, onboarding, vendor management and structures, we can work with you. We will make sure that we can check all of your boxes, so you feel confident choosing BL.INK as your link management solution.
