Security & compliance

For the people who have to sign off on it.

A plain-English technical brief for IT managers, security officers, FSOs, and compliance leads: where data goes, what controls exist, and what stays your responsibility.

Our compliance statement, without the marketing.

No product makes an organization ITAR, CMMC, HIPAA, or GLBA compliant, and you should be skeptical of any vendor who says otherwise. Enclave is designed to support your program: AI inference runs on hardware inside your boundary with no required external connections, and the system provides access control, MFA, audit logging, and documentation you can use in your System Security Plan. How you configure, operate, and document it remains your responsibility.

Data flow

Prompts go down the hall, not across the internet.

  • Browsers and the optional Windows agent send prompts and selected file content to the Enclave server on your network.
  • Models, embeddings, knowledge bases, chats, and audit logs live on that server, on encrypted storage.
  • No telemetry or “phone home.” Enclave Servers has no remote access unless you grant it for a supervised session.
  • Optional cloud model connections exist but are off by default. If an administrator enables one, data sent to it leaves your boundary, so keep them off for controlled data.
Built-in controls

Controls that map to NIST SP 800-171.

Requirement numbers below use Rev. 2, the revision referenced by CMMC Level 2 and DFARS 252.204-7012. Our SSP materials also cross-reference Rev. 3.

ControlHow Enclave supports it800-171 Rev. 2
Role-based accessAdmin, user, and pending roles; group-based access to models, knowledge bases, and features3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.5
Unsuccessful logon limitsConfigurable account lockout threshold and duration3.1.8
Security noticeConfigurable login banner and Acceptable Use Policy acknowledgment on first login3.1.9
Session lock & terminationInactivity timeout with automatic sign-off3.1.10, 3.1.11
Audit loggingUser and administrator activity logs, chat review per your policy, keyword flagging, exportable records3.3.1, 3.3.2
Multi-factor authenticationTOTP MFA with admin-enforced enrollment3.5.3
Password policyComplexity, minimum length, reuse prevention; PBKDF2-SHA256 hashing3.5.7, 3.5.8, 3.5.10
Directory integrationLDAP / Active Directory so accounts follow your joiner-mover-leaver process3.5.1, 3.5.2
Media sanitizationDrives sanitized on-site per NIST SP 800-88 on return or de-installation3.8.3
Encryption at restLUKS2 full-disk encryption on server storage3.13.16
Controlled updatesSigned, checksum-verified packages with automatic rollback on failure3.4.1, 3.14.1

Mappings show where Enclave can contribute to a requirement. Whether a requirement is met depends on your configuration, policies, and the rest of your environment.

Under the hood

Boring, standard parts. On purpose.

Nothing exotic for your team to learn or your assessor to research.

  • RuntimeDocker containers
  • InferencevLLM on NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell GPUs
  • InterfaceHardened Open WebUI-based web app
  • DatabasePostgreSQL
  • StorageNVMe RAID, LUKS2 encryption
  • AuthLDAP / AD, local accounts, TOTP MFA

Offline updates

Updates without opening a port.

We build a signed package

Each release is signed and checksummed.

You transfer it on USB

Download on a non-sensitive workstation and move it through your normal media-transfer process.

One command applies it

The script verifies the signature, applies the update, restarts services, and rolls back automatically if anything fails.

Documentation

Paperwork your reviewers will want.

Available to prospective customers under a mutual NDA.

System Security Plan template

Pre-filled SSP materials describing how the appliance fits your boundary, with Rev. 2 and Rev. 3 references.

Architecture & network guide

System architecture, ports, and network configuration for your firewall and segmentation review.

Admin guide & runbooks

Administrator guide, integration checklists, and the update runbook, so your team never depends on us.
