Important: New Platform Feature – Encryption at Rest Coming in October 2025

Kia ora,


We are introducing encryption at rest for customer data within the Silverstripe AWS platform. This is a major upgrade to how we protect your data on the platform.


What’s coming?


Encryption at rest ensures your data is automatically encrypted while stored, even when not being accessed. It’s a significant step forward in platform security and aligns with industry-leading best practices for sensitive data handling.


This feature will be released and applied to all environments from October 2025 and we’ll be in touch closer to the time with a scheduled maintenance window for your stack(s).


Why this matters to you

  • Stronger protection for your application data
  • Compliance with high security standards
  • Zero configuration or effort required on your end

What do you need to do?


Nothing for now. This is just a heads-up that this enhancement is on the way.


We will be in contact in the near future with details on when these changes will be applied to your environment.


Please share this message with others in your team who should be aware.


If you have any questions or would like to know more, feel free to reach out to your Account Manager or our support team.


Ngā mihi,

The Silverstripe Cloud Team
