GUARDYX AI

Security & Trust

Guardyx AI is infrastructure that sits in the path of real actions.

So we hold it to an infrastructure standard.

The Guardyx AI approvals queue: every agent tool call held for review, tagged by risk, with the policy that stopped it — the evidence a security reviewer sees.

Every action Guardyx AI governs — allowed, held, or denied — lands here and exports as a tamper-evident evidence pack.

Deployment

Run Guardyx AI as hosted SaaS, or self-hosted in your own VPC or on-prem — whichever your security posture calls for.

Encryption

TLS 1.2+ in transit. KMS at rest. Credentials double-encrypted, keys in Secrets Manager.

TLS 1.2 or higher

AWS KMS
Credentials
AES-128-CBC + HMAC, on top of KMS

Agent auth secrets
One-way SHA-256 hashes
Key rotation
Staged, no downtime
Full statementon Encryption

Encrypted in transit and at rest. All traffic uses TLS 1.2 or higher. Data is encrypted at rest with AWS KMS, and credentials get a second layer of application-level encryption (AES-128-CBC + HMAC) with keys held in AWS Secrets Manager — never in code. Agent authentication secrets are stored as one-way SHA-256 hashes, not encrypted. Encryption keys support staged rotation with no downtime.

Data retention

Governance evidence is retained for 730 days by default, and never longer. Searchable history depends on your plan; tool-call content has a separate retention window. Every purge attested.

Evidence default
730 days (two years)
Evidence maximum
730 days — shorten it, never extend it
Indefinite retention
Not an option
High-risk floor
183 days (EU AI Act Art. 26(6))
Enforcement
Database-level constraints
Tiers
Governance evidence vs. tool-call content
Full statementon Data retention

You set the window; the schema enforces it. Every workspace has an explicit governance-evidence retention period — indefinite retention isn't an option. The default is 730 days, which is also the ceiling: a workspace can shorten its window, never extend it. Database-level constraints mean a misconfiguration can't silently destroy your trail. Workspaces that self-declare as high-risk AI deployers get a 183-day floor, matching EU AI Act Article 26(6). Searchable audit history is a separate plan entitlement: 7 days on Free, 90 days on paid plans, and longer for Enterprise as agreed, within the evidence retention window. Expiration of searchable history does not itself delete stored evidence, and a longer history entitlement cannot restore deleted records. The Terms specify a 90-day storage minimum unless an Order Form or DPA provides otherwise; shorter configured windows must be consistent with that agreement and applicable minimums. Retention is two-tier: keep governance evidence for years while scrubbing tool-call content on a shorter clock. Every purge is attested by a retained, hash-chained record — and a purge aborts entirely if audit-chain verification fails, so cleanup can never destroy evidence of tampering.

Data residency

All customer data is stored in AWS US East (N. Virginia, us-east-1). We do not currently offer regional data residency options.

Data handling & isolation

Row-level workspace scoping on every record, query, and export.

Scoping
Row-level, per workspace
Queries & exports
Filtered to the calling workspace
Admin endpoints
Role-gated
What is recorded
Tool calls, including arguments and results
Content retention
Controlled independently of audit metadata
Full statementon Data handling & isolation

Every record is scoped to your workspace at the row level, and every query and export is filtered to the calling workspace. Administrative endpoints are role-gated. Guardyx AI records the tool calls your agents make, including call arguments and results — that's the evidence the product exists to produce — and you control how long that content is kept independently of the surrounding audit metadata.

Audit trail integrity

Tamper-evident: a per-workspace SHA-256 hash chain, verified on demand.

Method
Per-workspace SHA-256 hash chain
Detection
Pinpoints the exact modified record
Verification
On demand, embedded in every evidence pack
Full statementon Audit trail integrity

Your audit trail is tamper-evident. Every governance event is linked into a per-workspace SHA-256 hash chain, so any after-the-fact modification is detectable at the exact record. Verification runs on demand and its result is embedded in every evidence pack you export.

Identity & access

Sign in with your own identity provider over OIDC, with role-based access control (RBAC) across the portal and administrative actions.

Approvals

Route approvals to the Guardyx AI portal, Slack, or email — wherever your team already works.

SIEM & observability

We don't currently stream into a security information and event management (SIEM) tool or an observability platform, and we'd rather say so than imply otherwise. Every governed action is captured and can be exported as an auditor-ready evidence pack, with audit-chain verification embedded in the export.

Compliance

Guardyx AI maps to ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 27001 Annex A — and produces the evidence for them on demand, as an auditor-ready pack rather than a questionnaire response.
