# How secure is Paycom's HR and Payroll data?

We're in the retail industry, and with security being our top priority, how does Paycom support cybersecurity for Payroll and HR data?

##### Post Metadata - Posted at: about 2 months ago - Net upvotes: 2 ## Comments ### Comment 1 Great question, and it's one we're always happy to answer because security is foundational to everything we do. Paycom uses a single database, the only one of its kind in the industry, so your HR and payroll data live in one place instead of across multiple systems. Fewer connection points mean fewer risks. We operate our own data centers and are the only HR tech company with Tier IV certification (the highest level). And we have two of them. This is backed by AES-256 encryption, multifactor authentication, 24/7 monitoring and regular testing, plus industry certifications like ISO 27001 and SOC 1, 2 and 3.
