Security
Last updated: July 7, 2026
Our security model
Webklip uses a link-as-secret model: knowing the URL is the primary access control for anonymous clips. For sensitive content, use PIN protection or client-side end-to-end encryption.
Transport security
Webklip is served over HTTPS. Secure cookies are used on encrypted connections. Always access the service over an encrypted connection.
Access controls
- PIN protection — optional per-clip PIN, stored as a bcrypt hash. Five failed attempts trigger a 15-minute lockout per IP.
- Unlock cookies — after PIN entry, an httpOnly HMAC-signed cookie grants access for 24 hours.
- End-to-end encryption — AES-256-GCM in the browser; the server never sees plaintext or the decryption key.
Data lifecycle
- Default TTL: 24 hours, configurable per clip
- Burn-on-read: optional single-view deletion when enabled
- Background cleanup: expired clips and orphan files are permanently deleted
- View limits: optional cap on views (1, 3, 10, or unlimited)
Abuse prevention
- Per-IP rate limits on requests and clip creation
- File upload size limits
- Content size limits on updates
- URL validation on outbound callbacks to prevent server-side request forgery
HTTP security headers
We send Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy headers on all responses.
What we do not claim
- We do not encrypt data at rest in the database by default
- We do not guarantee protection against someone who already has your link
Responsible disclosure
