Encryption is one of the primary technologies used to protect information within Army Flight Logbook.
​

Whether you're signing into your account, synchronizing flight records, uploading documents, or viewing reports, encryption helps protect your information while it travels across the Internet and while it is stored within our infrastructure.
​

Frameworks Holdings LLC uses modern encryption technologies and trusted cloud infrastructure to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to customer information.

While no security measure can guarantee absolute protection, encryption is an essential part of our layered security strategy.

Encryption is the process of converting readable information into an encoded format that can only be accessed by authorized systems using the appropriate cryptographic keys.
​

In simple terms:

Without encryption:
​

Flight Record → Anyone intercepting the data could potentially read it.

With encryption:
​

Flight Record → Encrypted Data → Only authorized systems can decrypt it.
​

Encryption helps protect information against interception, unauthorized disclosure, and tampering.

Army Flight Logbook uses encryption throughout the platform.

Examples include:

Whenever your device communicates with Army Flight Logbook, that connection is encrypted.

Examples include:

Connections use HTTPS with Transport Layer Security (TLS) to help protect information while it travels across public networks.

TLS helps prevent:

Army Flight Logbook uses HTTPS with modern versions of Transport Layer Security (TLS), as supported by our hosting providers and client platforms.

These protocols help:

Older and insecure encryption protocols are avoided whenever possible.

Information stored within Army Flight Logbook is protected using encryption provided by our cloud infrastructure.

Examples include:

Encryption at rest helps reduce the risk of unauthorized access to stored information.

Army Flight Logbook is hosted on Google Cloud Platform, which automatically encrypts customer data stored within supported services.

This includes services such as:

Google manages the underlying encryption infrastructure as part of its cloud platform.

Passwords require special protection.
​

Army Flight Logbook never stores passwords in plain text.

Instead:

After a successful login, secure authentication tokens are used to identify your session.
​

These tokens help:

Authentication tokens are transmitted only over encrypted connections and expire according to platform and security requirements.

Files uploaded to Army Flight Logbook, such as DA Forms, images, PDFs, and other supporting documents, are stored using secure cloud storage services.
​

These files benefit from encryption at rest provided by our cloud infrastructure and are accessible only through authenticated requests that satisfy our application access controls.

Flight records and related application data are stored within managed cloud databases that provide built-in security features, including:

Application-level security rules further restrict who may access information stored within the database.

Encryption is only effective when cryptographic keys are protected.
​

Army Flight Logbook relies on managed cloud key management systems provided by our infrastructure partners. These systems are designed to securely generate, store, rotate, and protect encryption keys while reducing operational risk.
​

Frameworks Holdings LLC does not manually manage customer encryption keys for day-to-day operations.

Applications often require credentials such as API keys, service account credentials, and configuration secrets to operate securely.
​

Where appropriate, these sensitive values are stored using managed secret storage services rather than being embedded directly into application code or public repositories.
​

Access to secrets is limited to authorized services and personnel with a legitimate operational need.

Encryption is only one part of protecting information.

Army Flight Logbook also benefits from network security controls that may include:

These controls work alongside encryption to reduce exposure to common network-based threats.

Communications sent by Army Flight Logbook, such as password reset emails, account verification messages, and important service notifications, are transmitted through trusted email providers.
​

While email travels across external systems beyond our direct control, we use reputable providers and encourage users to verify that emails originate from official Army Flight Logbook domains before interacting with links or attachments.

Encryption is an important security measure, but it cannot protect against every threat.
​

Encryption cannot prevent:

Users play an important role in maintaining account security by protecting their devices and credentials.

Frameworks Holdings LLC continuously reviews advances in cryptography, cloud security, and industry best practices to help ensure that Army Flight Logbook uses appropriate encryption technologies for the information entrusted to us.
​

As our platform evolves, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to strengthen encryption, authentication, and key management while maintaining compatibility, reliability, and ease of use.
