Security & Compliance
Hardened for critical environments
Designed from the ground up for judicial facilities, military installations, and national infrastructure — where security is non-negotiable.
  • End-to-end TLS 1.3 encryption — all data in transit encrypted. All stored recordings optionally encrypted at rest with AES-256.
  • Zero-trust role-based access — JWT token auth with per-resource permission scoping. No implicit trust at any tier.
  • Immutable audit logs — every operator action, login event, and system change is logged with tamper-detection hashing.
  • Air-gap deployment ready — fully operational in isolated networks. No cloud dependencies. All services run on-premise.
  • Multi-factor authentication — TOTP-based 2FA with hardware token support for privileged operator accounts.
  • Container isolation — each microservice runs in an isolated Docker container with minimal privilege and network segmentation.
  • Data retention policies — configurable per-tenant retention schedules with automatic secure deletion and compliance reporting.
  • Vulnerability patching SLA — critical CVEs patched within 48 hours. Monthly security hardening updates across all base images.
