Security
Permafrost-Level Protection
Your documents never touch shared infrastructure. Every layer of ArcticAI's architecture is an ice wall — engineered to enforce privacy, not just promise it.
Architecture
How Data Flows Through The Ice
Pillars
Four Walls Of Ice
Dedicated GPU Chambers
Your data runs on isolated hardware — a frozen chamber with no shared silicon. Each vault provisions its own GPU that is fully decommissioned when you trigger the melt sequence.
Frozen-Channel Encryption
AES-256 encryption locks data at rest. TLS 1.3 seals data in transit. Your documents are encrypted before they leave your browser and remain sealed until they reach your dedicated cold chamber.
Zero-Knowledge Orchestration
Our control plane routes metadata and provisions resources. It never sees, caches, or processes your documents. The orchestration layer is structurally blind to content. Cryptographic attestation available on request.
Air-Gapped Perimeter
Your vault operates inside a sealed network with no outbound internet access. Data physically cannot escape the instance. This creates a true cold-room environment — an ice wall around your analysis.
Data Lifecycle
From Freeze To Sublimation
Every phase is engineered so your document content remains invisible to ArcticAI at all times.
Phase 1
Freeze
Documents are encrypted in your browser and transferred over frozen TLS 1.3 channels directly to your dedicated GPU instance. Our servers never intercept or inspect the payload.
Phase 2
Contain
All AI inference runs locally on your GPU using auditable open-source models. No data is transmitted to any external API, third-party service, or shared compute resource.
Phase 3
Preserve
Documents exist only on your instance's local encrypted storage. No copies are replicated elsewhere. The cold chamber holds everything in isolation until you decide otherwise.
Phase 4
Sublimate
When you destroy a vault, the GPU instance is terminated and all storage is cryptographically wiped. Every byte evaporates. The process is verified and irreversible.
Compliance
Built To Withstand Your Auditors
ArcticAI's cold-chamber isolation is designed to support regulatory frameworks across healthcare, finance, legal, and government sectors.
HIPAA Compatible
Isolated cold-chamber architecture engineered to satisfy HIPAA technical safeguards for protected health information.
GDPR Ready
Data residency controls and right-to-erasure are built into every vault lifecycle by default.
SOX Compliant
Tamper-proof audit trails with SHA-256 integrity verification for financial data accountability.
Attorney-Client Privilege
Zero third-party access to document content. Everything stays inside your sealed cold chamber.
Note: ArcticAI provides the technical infrastructure to support compliance. Achieving certification depends on your organization's broader security posture and implementation practices.
Security You Can Inspect, Not Just Trust
Open-source models. Isolated cold chambers. Zero-knowledge architecture.
