How We Protect Your Data

Security Architecture

SOC 2 Trust Services Alignment

Our infrastructure and operations are designed and operated against the AICPA SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Confidentiality). A formal Type II attestation is on our roadmap as we scale — in the meantime, every access, change, and data flow is logged and verifiable, and we can walk enterprise customers through our control environment under NDA.

  • Controls mapped to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria
  • Role-based access control enforced at the application layer
  • Full audit trail in CloudWatch Logs for every data access and change
  • Incident response plan documented and tested regularly

End-to-End Encryption

Data is encrypted at every stage — in transit via TLS 1.3, at rest via AES-256, and at the application layer via AWS KMS field-level encryption for sensitive patent data.

  • TLS 1.3 for all data in transit — no exceptions
  • AES-256 encryption at rest across all storage layers
  • AWS KMS-managed keys with automatic rotation
  • Application-layer encryption for sensitive fields (client names, patent details)

Zero AI Training Guarantee

Your patent data is never used to train AI models — ours or anyone else's. We operate our own AI infrastructure on AWS Bedrock with strict data isolation.

  • No data shared with external AI providers for training
  • Private AWS Bedrock deployment — models run in our VPC
  • Data processed in-memory only, never persisted in AI systems
  • Contractual guarantee: your data stays yours

Data Residency & Sovereignty

All data is stored and processed exclusively in the United States on AWS infrastructure. We do not replicate data outside US boundaries.

  • US-East-1 (Virginia) primary region
  • No cross-border data transfers
  • AWS GovCloud compatible architecture
  • Data deletion within 30 days of account closure

Infrastructure & Redundancy

Built on AWS with multi-AZ deployment, automated backups, and zero-downtime deployments. Designed for 99.9% uptime with disaster recovery.

  • Multi-AZ deployment across AWS availability zones
  • Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery
  • DDoS protection via AWS Shield and CloudFront
  • Real-time monitoring with automated alerting

How We Compare

IPELINTvs. Industry Standard

Most legal-tech platforms rely on shared AI infrastructure and basic encryption. We built something fundamentally different.

Common Questions

Security FAQ

We implement defense-in-depth security: TLS 1.3 for all data in transit, AES-256 encryption at rest, AWS KMS field-level encryption for sensitive patent data, role-based access control, and comprehensive audit logging via CloudWatch. Our infrastructure runs on AWS with multi-AZ deployment and DDoS protection.

Absolutely not. We operate private AI infrastructure on AWS Bedrock within our own VPC. Your data is processed in-memory for analysis and never stored in or shared with AI training pipelines — ours or any third party's. This is a contractual guarantee, not just a policy.

Upon account closure, all your data is permanently deleted from our systems within 30 days. This includes documents, analysis results, and all associated metadata. We provide a data export option before deletion and can issue a certificate of destruction upon request.

All data is stored and processed exclusively in AWS US-East-1 (Northern Virginia). We do not replicate customer data outside the United States. Our architecture is AWS GovCloud compatible for organizations with stricter requirements.

Yes. All accounts support MFA through our identity provider (Clerk). We support TOTP authenticator apps and SMS verification. Enterprise plans can enforce MFA for all organization members through admin policies.

We implement project-level role-based access control (RBAC). Team members are assigned to projects with specific permissions. All access decisions are logged and auditable. Client portal users have restricted views limited to shared content only.

Not yet. Our controls are designed and operated to meet the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, but we have not completed a formal Type II attestation — that engagement is on our roadmap as we scale. In the meantime, we're happy to share our security documentation, control inventory, and architecture details with enterprise customers under NDA so your security team can conduct its own review.

We maintain a documented incident response plan that is tested quarterly. In the event of a security incident, affected customers are notified within 72 hours per our contractual obligations. We conduct root cause analysis and publish post-incident reports.
