Security & reliability
You're trusting us with your coursework and your payment information — here is exactly how that trust is earned and maintained, in plain language.
Network isolation
Every VM is placed on its own dedicated VLAN through Proxmox SDN. Students cannot see, scan, or reach each other's machines — each VM is as isolated as if it were on a separate physical network.
Encryption
All traffic between your browser and your VM (console access, RDP tunnel, and the dashboard) is encrypted with TLS. Virtual disks are stored on encrypted-at-rest storage on the host.
Access control
Our own infrastructure access uses a dedicated, narrowly-scoped Proxmox API token — never the root account — and every administrative action is written to an audit log. Support staff cannot log into your VM without your explicit request.
Built and operated in-house
The server fleet, the provisioning pipeline, the dashboard you're using right now, and the team keeping it online are all part of the same operation — sourced, configured, written, and maintained by us. No white-label control panel, no outsourced NOC, no reseller layer marking up someone else's cloud.
Payments
All billing is handled by Stripe. Static Campus never stores your card number — Stripe is PCI-DSS Level 1 certified, the highest level of certification in the payments industry.
Reliability
Every node reports a heartbeat we track continuously — its live reliability score is computed from that real history, not a marketing number. A node that goes degraded is automatically pulled out of rotation for new VMs and flagged for the team to investigate.
Backups & data control
You control your own VM lifecycle. When you delete a VM, its disk is securely wiped and cannot be recovered — by us or anyone else. We recommend keeping coursework backed up to your school's cloud storage as well.
Account security
Passwords are hashed with bcrypt and never stored in plaintext. Login and signup are rate-limited well below brute-force range, on top of the site's general rate limit.
Found a security issue?
We take reports seriously and respond quickly. Email main@staticgpu.com — please don't test isolation boundaries against other students' live VMs.
