Security & Governance

Security & Governance

Built for paranoid engineers who sleep well at night

Security and governance aren't features we added later. They're the foundation. Multi-tenant RLS, immutable audit logs, circuit breakers, and idempotency guarantees are baked into every layer.

Security Architecture

Multi-layered security from the database to the API to the agent runtime

Multi-Tenant Row-Level Security

Postgres RLS ensures data isolation at the database layer. No tenant can see another tenant's data, even if application logic fails.

  • RLS policies on every table, no exceptions
  • Organization-scoped queries enforced at DB layer
  • Tenant isolation tested with every deployment
  • Policy violations trigger automatic alerts

Immutable Audit Logging

Every action flows through an append-only event log with cryptographic signatures. Tamper-proof compliance trail.

  • Append-only log, no updates or deletes allowed
  • Cryptographic signatures on every event
  • Point-in-time system reconstruction
  • Configurable retention: 30 days to forever

Idempotency Guarantees

Every operation is idempotent with unique request IDs. Retry safely without duplicates or side effects.

  • Idempotency keys on all mutations
  • Duplicate request detection and deduplication
  • Safe retries across failures and restarts
  • Exactly-once semantics for outbound messages

Circuit Breakers

Automatic failure isolation prevents cascade failures. Services degrade gracefully under load or downstream failures.

  • Circuit breakers on all external service calls
  • Automatic failover to fallback behaviors
  • Health checks with exponential backoff
  • Manual circuit override for emergencies

Retention & Data Lifecycle

Configurable retention policies for audit logs, event data, and PII. Automatic archival and deletion.

  • 30-day, 1-year, or infinite retention options
  • Automatic archival to cold storage (S3 Glacier)
  • PII scrubbing after retention period
  • GDPR right-to-delete compliance

Secrets Management

API keys and credentials never touch application code. Encrypted at rest, injected at runtime, rotated automatically.

  • Vault-backed secrets storage with rotation
  • Runtime injection, zero code exposure
  • Audit trail for every secret access
  • Integration with AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault

Role-Based Access Control

Granular permissions down to individual event types and resources. Principle of least privilege by default.

  • Fine-grained permissions per event type
  • Team-based and individual access policies
  • SSO and SAML 2.0 integration
  • Session management and MFA enforcement

Execution Sandboxing

All agent code runs in isolated containers with resource limits, network restrictions, and read-only filesystems.

  • Containerized execution with resource quotas
  • Network egress filtering and allow-listing
  • Filesystem isolation and read-only modes
  • Automatic termination of runaway processes

Reliability Patterns

Because 2am pages are bad for everyone

Retry with Exponential Backoff

Failed operations retry automatically with increasing delays. Prevents thundering herd.

Dead-Letter Queues

Failed messages after max retries go to DLQ for investigation. Nothing is lost.

Health Checks & Liveness Probes

Every service exposes health endpoints. Unhealthy instances are removed from load balancers.

Rate Limiting & Throttling

Protect external APIs and prevent abuse with intelligent rate limits.

Graceful Degradation

When dependencies fail, degrade gracefully. Serve cached data, queue for later, or return partial results.
