Trust & Security

Your data. Your hardware.
Your control.

Ayudh runs inside your infrastructure, local-first. If you choose to add your own external model accounts, sensitivity rules and an egress log govern every call — and restricted data never leaves. Critical actions are logged, auditable, and tamper-evident. The result is AI your board, compliance team, and business owners can actually govern.

Why on-premise matters

Not a preference.
A requirement.

Attorney-Client Privilege
When documents are processed by third-party cloud APIs, privilege may be waived. On-premise processing keeps every document within the privilege boundary.
Regulatory Compliance
RBI, SEBI, and enterprise no-cloud policies require sensitive data to stay inside organisational infrastructure. Ayudh is architecturally compliant — not policy-compliant.
Data Residency
Your data stays on your hardware, in your jurisdiction. No cross-border transfers. No third-party storage. No ambiguity.
Competitive Intelligence
Your contracts, strategies, and deal terms are your most sensitive data. Processing them through external APIs means sharing them with another company's infrastructure.
Every claim grounded. Every output reviewable.

The audit trail

Every decision. Every source.
Every change.

Ayudh maintains a hash-chained, tamper-evident audit trail across mutating operations. This is not a log file. It is a cryptographic chain where each entry is linked to the previous one. Any tampering breaks the chain and is immediately detectable.

The system also knows what it does not know. When it cannot extract a field reliably, it routes the residue to verification rather than guessing. Silent, fluent failure is the real danger — outputs that are wrong but look authoritative. See a real example →

Source Documents Consulted
Which documents were retrieved, which sections were selected as relevant context.
Reasoning Applied
What instructions governed the output, what alternatives were considered.
Changes Made
Every modification traced to its source provision, with before-and-after states.
Who Did What, When
User, action, timestamp, resource affected. Exportable for compliance review.
Who sees what

Granular. Enforced.
Not optional.

Every retrieval path in Ayudh passes through a single access control resolver. This is not a filter applied after results are returned — it is a gate that determines what results exist for each user.

Per-User, Per-Document Controls
Permissions enforced at every level: tenant, team, department, collection, folder, individual document.
Native Permission Mirroring
When documents are synced from Google Drive or OneDrive, the original sharing permissions are carried through into Ayudh's access model. If a user cannot see a file in Drive, they cannot see it in Ayudh.
Fail-Closed Design
If a permission cannot be resolved, access is denied. The system does not default to open. Ambiguity is treated as denial.
Governed model routing

Your models.
Your rules.

The Ayudh Gateway routes every AI call by task, data sensitivity, and user seniority. Run open models on your GPUs, bring your own provider accounts, or mix both — the routing rules, not the vendor, decide where a call may go.

Model choice is configuration, not reinstallation. Your AI strategy is never hostage to one vendor.

Sensitivity Ladder
Every document and stream is classed on a ladder from public to restricted. The class travels with the data into every AI call.
Fail-Closed for Restricted Data
Data classed as restricted is routed to local models only — it physically cannot leave your network. Architecturally enforced, not a policy promise.
Complete Egress Log
If an external model is ever used, the log records what class of data went where and when. Never the content itself.
Security

Architecturally enforced.
Not policy-dependent.

Ayudh does not rely on policies or promises to keep your data safe. Security is built into the architecture.

01
Multi-Factor Authentication
TOTP authenticator apps. No SMS fallback. No weak factors.
02
Encrypted Sessions
Secure token handling with HTTP-only cookies. No client-side token storage.
03
Role-Based Access
Per-user, per-document-type permissions enforced at every endpoint.
04
Tamper-Evident Logging
Hash-chained audit trail. Any modification breaks the chain.
05
Multi-Tenant Isolation
Each organisation's data is isolated at the database level. No cross-tenant access by design.
06
Adversarially Tested
The platform has been subjected to adversarial security review, with findings tracked, reviewed, and remediated as part of the engineering process.
Getting started

Four weeks. Your infrastructure.
Your data.

Week 1 — Install & Ingest
Install Ayudh on a dev box. Ingest a representative document set. Confirm the knowledge layer answers your questions.
Week 2 — Configure & Verify
Configure a workflow for one document type with your team. Run reference documents. Verify acceptance on the outputs.
Week 3 — Pilot Group
Open to a pilot group. Monitor the audit trail. Collect feedback. The system begins learning your conventions.
Week 4 — Security & Integration
Security review. Access control setup against your identity provider. Integration with your document management system.

After week four, you have a governed deployment path, real user feedback, and a clear production-readiness view.
