Encrypted Data Storage

Your customers trust you with their data. Astrocart protects it with AES-256 encryption at rest for all sensitive information — payment gateway credentials, personal data, and API keys. Sensitive fields are encrypted in the database using Laravel's built-in encryption. Even if someone gains database access, encrypted data remains unreadable without the encryption key. PCI DSS compliance is maintained by never storing raw card data. Payment processing is handled entirely by your payment gateway (Stripe, PayPal, etc.).
