Authentication Security
Controller Cloud uses industry-standard OAuth with GitHub and Google, plus traditional email authentication to ensure secure access to your account:
- OAuth 2.0 Protocol - Secure authentication through trusted providers (GitHub and Google)
- No Password Storage - When using OAuth, Controller never stores your GitHub or Google passwords
- Encrypted Connections - All authentication requests use HTTPS encryption
- Token-Based Access - Secure tokens manage your session without exposing credentials
- Email Authentication - Traditional email/password option with secure password hashing
