Security & Compliance

Audit-ready by design.

AEGIS is the audit infrastructure for AI agents — it would be embarrassing if our own posture were weaker than what we ship to customers. This page lists exactly what's certified, what's shipped, and what's in progress. Send corrections to aojieyuan04@gmail.com.

Counterfactual explainer + audit log meet decision-explainability requirement

Trust Center. A SafeBase / Whistic-style single-page audit portal launches with the SOC 2 Type II report. In the interim, enterprise customers under NDA can request the policy bundle, network diagram, and detector architecture brief from aojieyuan04@gmail.com.

Cryptographic audit primitives

Auditors don't trust vendors — they trust mathematics. Every AEGIS deployment ships with cryptographic primitives that make our own infrastructure non-repudiable to your team.

RFC 6962 transparency log

Every audit event appends to a Merkle tree. Tree heads signed Ed25519. Customers cache signed roots locally for offline non-repudiation.

Witness cosignature protocol

Multiple independent signers verify the same tree head — Sigstore-style. Customers verify against ANY witness without trusting AEGIS infrastructure.

Zero-dep offline verifier

A 245-line CLI (`tools/verify-log/index.mjs`) verifies inclusion + consistency proofs with no Node deps beyond the standard library. Runs in any air-gapped environment.

Signed release artifacts

Every npm tarball, PyPI wheel, and gateway Docker image ships with an Ed25519 signature + CycloneDX SBOM + SLSA-compatible attestation. Pin trust on the public key once.

Architecture references

Two design decisions weren't ours to invent. We cite the papers AEGIS is aligned with so buyers with a research team can check the framing before the security review.

arXiv:2606.07119

The Three-Ring Architecture — Toledo et al., 2026

AEGIS is the Ring-2 control plane. Ring 3 (LLM decision) has non-deterministic deviations that "propagate through complex organisational systems without retrospective traceability" — so every Ring-3-originated saga auto-pauses for human approval before compensating, regardless of magnitude. Sagas carry an origin_ring column so approvers can see the provenance.

arXiv:2606.09692

Observability for Delegated Execution — Toledo et al., 2026

Traces carry a bound delegation_id (and parent_delegation_id for sub-delegations) written at execution time by the SDK — not reconstructed heuristically. This gives forensic queries and delegation-scoped rollback (POST /rollback/delegation/:id) semantics that standard audit logs cannot express.

Data handling

Encryption in transit
TLS 1.3 + ALPN preferred; HSTS preload-eligible domains.
Encryption at rest
AES-256 disk encryption on all managed deployments; SQLite + Postgres rows are not application-layer encrypted (workload requires regex/JSON predicates).
Hash algorithms
SHA-256 for content fingerprints + transparency log leaf hashes. Ed25519 for transparency-log root signatures.
Secrets storage
Hashed at rest (SHA-256). Bearer tokens & API keys are emitted exactly once; we cannot retrieve a key you lost.
PII handling
Built-in PII detector runs on every trace ingestion. Detected fields are flagged on the trace + redacted from the cockpit view at the org admin’s option.
Data retention
Per-plan (Free 7d / Pro 30d / Team 90d / Enterprise contractual). Customers can delete data via API or with a single request.
Sub-processors
See https://aegistraces.com/subprocessors. Notification on change ≥ 30 days advance.
Right to deletion
Self-service via the cockpit; cascade across traces, audit log, transparency log, and DLQ.

Vulnerability disclosure

We follow standard coordinated disclosure. If you find a security issue, please email aojieyuan04@gmail.com (PGP key at .well-known/security.txt) with reproduction steps. We acknowledge within 48 hours and target a fix within 30 days for HIGH/CRITICAL severity, 90 days otherwise. We credit you in the advisories list unless you ask to stay anonymous.

What's in scope

  • This marketing + account site at aegistraces.com
  • The hosted gateway + cockpit (rolling out — self-host is the shipping option today)
  • The npm + PyPI release artifacts
  • The desktop installer (any platform we ship)

What's NOT in scope

  • Denial-of-service via volumetric traffic (use the rate-limit instead)
  • Issues that only affect customers' own self-hosted gateways with default test credentials
  • Findings on dependencies that don't materially impact AEGIS
  • Social engineering of staff or contractors

Bug bounty. The HackerOne program launches with the v1.0 GA release. Until then, severity-weighted monetary rewards are paid out of band by direct transfer.
