EU-only data residency. GDPR by architecture. ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, TISAX, and BSI C5 attestation in progress — not certified yet. Security is how we build, not how we patch.
Your data stays in Europe.
All processing — database, storage, AI inference, backups — happens within the EU. Primary data center: Frankfurt. No transfer to non-EU countries. Ever.
Encrypted everywhere.
TLS 1.3 in transit. AES-256 at rest. Service-to-service over mTLS. Your BYOK keys encrypted with per-customer encryption keys in a hardware-backed KMS.
Tenant isolation at the database layer.
Row-level security policies enforce workspace separation in Postgres itself, not just the application. Cross-tenant access is technically impossible, not just policy-prohibited.
We never train on your data.
Your conversations, prompts, and knowledge bases stay yours. Default: AI providers do not retain or train on Laavod traffic. You can verify this in your account settings.
Primary database, object storage, AI inference, and backups all run in the European Union, with Frankfurt as the primary region. Backups are geo-redundant within EU regions only. AI model inference routes through EU-resident endpoints, even for US-based providers like OpenAI and Anthropic.
Your data does not leave the European Union. This is enforced through geographic routing controls, not just policy.
Every request is authenticated and authorized at multiple layers. Multi-factor authentication is available to all users and enforceable as a workspace policy. Passwords are stored only as salted bcrypt hashes. Session tokens are cryptographically signed and short-lived.
Enterprise customers get SSO via SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0 / OIDC with major identity providers (Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Google Workspace, Auth0, PingIdentity, JumpCloud). SCIM 2.0 handles automated user provisioning and deprovisioning. IP allowlisting restricts access to approved networks.
Supporting facts
Brute-force protection: server-side rate limiting, exponential lockout, IP anomaly detection, CAPTCHA escalation, automatic account lockout with admin-configurable thresholds.
Every authentication event is written to the immutable audit log in real time.
Sign-ins, failed sign-in attempts, MFA changes, role and permission changes, administrative API access, data exports, integration activations, AI model switches, security configuration changes — all written to an immutable audit log.
Admins can view and export logs (CSV, JSON). Enterprise customers can stream logs in real time to their SIEM (Splunk, Sentinel, Datadog, or similar).
Laavod is built for AI work, which means we treat AI-specific risks as first-class concerns, not afterthoughts.
