Security & confidentiality
Discretion is engineered into every layer.
- Multi-factor access. MFA is required for every account; SSO-ready architecture for enterprise clients in a later phase.
- Least-privilege roles. Eleven-role hierarchy; each user sees only the cases and records they are entitled to.
- Tenant isolation. Row-level and file-level isolation between clients; no shared deliverable storage.
- Encryption. Encryption at rest and in transit on every record, document and message.
- Immutable audit trail. Every decision, approval and document version is preserved as an auditable record.
