Security & Architecture

Vantage is enterprise software. Security and architectural posture are not afterthoughts — they are the constraints from which the product is built. This page is the formal statement of that posture. Deeper architectural detail lives in our Architecture Whitepaper.

Architectural philosophy

Vantage agents are read-only by architecture, not by policy. The connector layer that bridges customer systems to Vantage agents enforces read-only access at the connector primitive, before any agent reasoning occurs. An agent cannot write to a customer system, initiate a workflow on a customer system, or take operational action without explicit, separately-authorized human approval through a customer-administered control.

Multi-tenant isolation

Customer data and agent state are isolated at the agent and storage layer. Each tenant’s observed signals, calibration thresholds, and audit history live in storage scoped to that tenant. The agent runtime resolves tenant context on every operation; cross-tenant reads are not addressable.

Authentication

• SAML SSO for federation against the Customer’s identity provider
• OIDC for modern identity stacks and downstream service authorization
• Role-based access for administrators, leadership consumers, and integration accounts
• Session controls consistent with enterprise IT expectations — session timeout, IP allowlisting on request, and configurable MFA enforcement

Audit logging

Every agent action — every observation, every signal surface, every connector authentication, every administrative change — is logged to an immutable, tenant-scoped audit log accessible to the Customer’s designated administrators. Audit retention is configurable per engagement.

Geographic data residency

Vantage operates across four regions and offers residency options matched to the regulatory environment of the engagement:

• US default — primary region for engagements outside regulated geographies
• GCC residency — Saudi and UAE residency available for organizations subject to in-country data sovereignty
• EU residency — available on request for engagements subject to GDPR

Encryption

• All data in transit is encrypted via TLS 1.2 or higher
• All data at rest is encrypted via AES-256 or equivalent
• Connector credentials are stored in tenant-scoped secret storage with envelope encryption; access is mediated by the connector runtime, never by user-facing surfaces

Access controls

• Role-based permissions for administrators, leadership consumers, and read-only auditors
• IP allowlisting available per engagement for tenant administration surfaces
• Per-connector scope review surfaced in the customer admin experience — no hidden authorizations

Compliance posture

Vantage is architected with SOC 2 control principles in mind, and certification is on the roadmap. We do not claim certifications we have not earned. As we progress through the formal certification program, this page is updated with what has been issued, the effective dates, and the auditing party.

Bug bounty

A formal bug bounty program is on the roadmap. Until it is launched, security researchers can report vulnerabilities directly to security@vantage.app. Reports receive an acknowledgment within 72 hours and a written assessment within 14 days. Responsible disclosure is honored.
