Performance and Security

Superior performance and speed characteristics allow serving more traders setting for lower requirements on the hardware. Today MetaTrader 5 is one of the fastest, efficient and cost-effective trading platforms in the world.

MetaTrader 5 is based on a distributed architecture, where different functions are performed on different servers. This removes architectural limits and allows the performance of the software system to be increased by deploying more servers within the platform. The scalability of the system provides the perfect solution to any growth issues allowing to preserve the highest quality of brokerage services.

In addition, the distributed architecture increases the platform resistance to hacker attacks. Trade servers can be hidden behind multiple access points which will serve like shells. In case of such attacks, trade servers will continue to run in a normal mode, while the information stored on them will be absolutely safe.

The trading platform provides a reliable security system. Data exchange between the system components is performed over an encrypted connection. Built-in advanced authentication and authorization systems provide complete protection of trade accounts. All the system databases are securely encrypted and provided with the backup and recovery options.

You independently deploy our software on your own hardware, as well as maintain your server infrastructure and fully control support and administration. We do not offer SaaS or other similar solutions which would permit even partial external management or third-party control over your company's operations, and thus we have no access to your servers, accounts, or your clients' trading history. MetaQuotes prioritizes user data security and strives to maintain product compliance with the industry's latest safety requirements.
