Security, as it should be, is at the heart of everything we do. We use industry standard methods to make sure that all our home automation systems are secure. As these evolve, our systems evolve, so to list everything we use is tricky but we use a combination of HTTPS, JAAS, OAuth2 and a number of other solutions that combined secure the Nifty solution.
The security of the whole system (which includes our controller and all your third-party devices) varies dependent on the devices you have installed and the technologies they use.
We carefully vet all our third-party devices and services before we recommend and install them. However, we do not accept any responsibility for problems that may arise by using them.  If you want to be reassured of a specific devices security measures then please contact the manufacturer directly.
It is important to realise that our controller and all the third-party devices that are connected to it are only as secure as your home network. So, if you use your pets name and date of birth as your Wi-Fi password or worst still have no password then at some point your system will likely be compromised. Make sure your password is not a word, is over 10 characters, includes upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols and is not written down and easy to find. The best place to hide passwords is in an encrypted App such as LastPass or 1Password.
After every install, we will make sure your system is secure. After this it is your responsibility to keep it that way. If you have any specific concerns or questions please contact support.
