Controls visible in the product

These are implemented platform controls, not a substitute for the independent report.

Access control

Signed, expiring access tokens, rotating refresh tokens, role checks, disabled-account enforcement, and hashed API keys.

Persistent audit trail

Security-sensitive changes record the actor, action, outcome, request ID, and timestamp in an append-only audit stream.

Data integrity

Every observation response identifies its publisher, retrieval path, data vintage, and lineage mode. Managed runs add verifiable run IDs and transformation hashes.

Availability and recovery

Health probes, durable service volumes, immutable historical data artifacts, and documented recovery procedures support continuity.
