Plain Desk
A practical, layered approach to protecting your workspace, your content, and your account—from sign-in to deletion.
Security by design
Plain Desk limits data collection, protects access at the account boundary, and builds secure defaults into everyday workflows. Security questions are answered by a real person, not hidden behind a sales process.

Controls that help keep the right people in—and everyone else out.
Passwords are stored using Django's established password-hashing framework rather than readable text. Authenticated sessions use secure, server-managed controls.
Login and sensitive account activity can be reviewed for unusual behaviour so suspicious access can be investigated.
Workspace-aware permissions keep projects and knowledge organised around the people who are meant to access them.
Sensible controls across the lifecycle of the information you entrust to Plain Desk.
Connections are protected with HTTPS in production so information is encrypted while moving between your browser and Plain Desk.
Application access is limited to what is needed to operate, support, and secure the service. We do not sell personal information.
You can request account or personal-data deletion. Necessary operational records may be retained where required for security, legal, or continuity purposes.
