Security & Architecture

Built to pass your security review, not just your demo.

Tenant isolation, read-only connectors, scoped retrieval, and an immutable audit trail running inside your cloud or your data centre. Nothing leaves your perimeter, and everything the AI does is written down.

Six things that make AI safe to deploy.

Written for the person filling in a vendor questionnaire, not a compliance team reading a framework.

Deployed inside your perimeter

Anvax runs in your AWS, Azure, or GCP account, on a sovereign-cloud partner in your region, or on-prem with no outbound network. We never hold your data. There is no Anvax-side copy to breach.

Read-only connectors by default

Connectors pull documents and records; they do not write back. Write actions are off until an admin enables them per connector, and every enabled write goes through an approval step.

Tenant and workspace isolation

Postgres row-level security and per-tenant encryption keys separate every customer and every workspace. A user cannot surface a document through chat that they could not open directly.

Identity you already run

SSO via SAML/OIDC, SCIM provisioning, role-based access (Owner, Admin, Member, Guest), and per-workspace connector scoping. A finance workstream sees finance systems; a sales workstream does not.

Encryption and key control

TLS 1.3 in transit, per-tenant encryption at rest, customer-managed keys on the private-cloud and on-prem tiers. Secrets for connectors are stored encrypted and never exposed to the model.

No training on your data. Ever.

Models run in your tenant. Prompts, documents, and outputs are not used to train any model, and there is no shared model across customers to leak into.

Real questions

Three questions every reviewer asks.

Direct answers. No slide decks.

The CISO asks

"What can the AI actually reach?"

Only what the signed-in user can already reach. Every retrieval is permission-checked against the source system's ACLs at query time, not at index time, so a revoked permission takes effect immediately. Connector scope is set per workspace by an admin. On the on-prem tier, egress is blocked at the network layer; the model cannot call out even if prompted to.

The General Counsel asks

"If a regulator asks what the AI said and why, can we answer?"

Yes, from the audit log. Every query records the user, timestamp, the exact documents retrieved (with versions), the model and prompt template used, the answer, and any approvals on write actions. The log is append-only and exportable. This is the same trail we map to SOC 2, ISO 27001, EU AI Act record-keeping, and RBI FREE-AI.

The auditor asks

"Show me a control, not a slide."

Pick one. Retrieval scoping, audit immutability, key custody, and connector write-gating each map to a named control in the framework tabs below, with the implementing component and how to test it. We would rather you test it than trust it.

Certifications

Honest status. No vanity badges.

We list what is live, what is in progress, and what is mapped. Nothing is claimed that is not implemented.

Architecture

Six security checkpoints, every query.

Every AI request passes through all six checkpoints in sequence. Select a step to see what it enforces and what it guarantees.

Identity & access

Every request authenticated via SSO (SAML/OIDC) before any AI executes. Sessions are short-lived, phishing-resistant, and bound to your tenant context. No anonymous or shared-credential access at any tier.

Identity verified before any data is touched

AI controls

Security controls designed for AI, not retrofitted from the last decade.

AI systems introduce attack surfaces that traditional security frameworks were not built for. These controls address each one directly.

Hallucination mitigation

Answers grounded in retrieved context only; model surfaces uncertainty rather than inventing. Every response cites the source it drew from.

PII auto-redaction

PII, names, ID numbers, payment card data, and health identifiers detected and redacted before the model context window is assembled.

Prompt isolation

User input is structurally separated from system instructions; role boundaries enforced at the prompt layer, not relying on model instruction-following alone.

Model pinning

Model version locked per tenant; behaviour cannot change without an explicit upgrade decision and audit entry.

Inference audit

Every prompt, retrieved context, and completion stored in an append-only, cryptographically chained audit log.

Data residency

All inference, embeddings, and retrieval routed within your chosen region. Nothing crosses the perimeter you define.

Spend controls

Per-tenant token budgets with hard limits; anomalous usage patterns trigger alerts before they become incidents.

Human-in-the-loop

High-risk decisions and agentic actions require explicit human sign-off before any downstream action is taken.
