Security & Compliance
SOC 2 Type II Certified
Independent audit confirms our controls for security, availability, confidentiality, and privacy.
Continuous Monitoring & Governance
Security is embedded into every layer of our architecture, backed by enterprise-ready governance frameworks.
Data Privacy & Residency
Azure-Native Architecture
All AI inference and data processing occur entirely within Microsoft Azure. Models are staged and served from your selected Azure region, giving you deterministic control over where your data resides. This architecture aligns with Microsoft’s enterprise security guarantees and supports compliance with regional data sovereignty requirements, including GDPR.
Tenant Isolation
Customer environments are separated by design. Multi-tenant workflows are secured through private endpoints, virtual networks (VNets), and Azure-native access controls. Your data never co-mingles with another customer’s environment. Each tenant maintains its own institutional knowledge repository, ensuring that the context CognitiveSOC learns about your organization stays within your boundary.
Encryption Standards
All data is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher and at rest using AES-256 or equivalent. There are no exceptions to this policy.
Explainability & Auditability
Step-Level Reasoning Traces
Every investigative step is logged, validated, and linked to underlying evidence.
Deterministic Outputs
Structured schemas ensure repeatable, inspectable results.
Confidence & Coverage Signals
Each verdict includes clarity on what the model understood, ignored, and where uncertainty remains.
Deployment Options
SaaS (Hosted)
For teams that want rapid time-to-value without managing additional infrastructure, we offer a fully managed deployment on Conifers-hosted Azure infrastructure. Tenant isolation, encryption, and access controls are enforced by default.
Private Cloud (Your Azure Tenant)
For organizations with strict data residency or regulatory requirements, CognitiveSOC can be deployed directly within your Azure environment. All data processing, model inference, and storage remain entirely under your control.
Data Retention & Deletion
Retention Policy
Default data retention is 24 months for operational support. Retention periods can be adjusted based on contractual requirements.
Customer-Controlled Deletion
Full data deletion is completed within two weeks of a written request.
Responsible AI
Secure AI Principles
Explainability: Every decision can be traced and understood by a human analyst.
Reproducibility: Structured schemas ensure consistent outputs that can be verified independently.
Isolation: Strict tenant boundaries prevent data leakage between customers at every layer.
Governance with Human-in-the-Loop Oversight: Critical decisions remain with your team; our CognitiveSOC platform is designed to provide the context and evidence your people need to act with confidence.
No Cross-Customer Training
Your data is never used to train models for other customers. The institutional knowledge CognitiveSOC builds about your environment, your policies, and your risk tolerance stays within your tenant. This is a contractual commitment, not just a preference.
