Security and ownership

Built for security and control

Security starts with the workflow and data, not a generic checklist added before launch.

Ownership model

Clear data ownership. A path to independent use.

Your business data remains yours. The date we hand over the application source code for independent use depends on your subscription plan. The exact date and handover terms are recorded in your agreement.

You control
AlmOps remains responsible for
Application source code

On the handover date defined by your subscription plan, you receive source code with non-exclusive rights to run and maintain your version independently, yourself or with another provider.

Delivery quality

Architecture, review, tests, release and documentation.

Business rules and priorities

Your organisation decides what the product should do.

Managed operations

Monitoring, support and maintenance within the chosen plan.

Hosting decision

Use an AlmOps-managed environment, or client-owned infrastructure with managed support where your plan includes it.

Transition readiness

Keep dependencies, procedures and known risks documented.

Typical technical baseline

Controls matched to the workflow's risk.

The final architecture and control set are scoped during discovery. Certifications are never implied unless explicitly evidenced.

Identity and access

Role-based permissions, least privilege, strong authentication and access review.

Data protection

Encryption in transit and at rest, backups, retention and environment separation.

Auditability

Relevant user actions, privileged access, releases and system events for review.

Secure delivery

Peer review, automated checks, secrets management and controlled deployment.

Operational response

Monitoring, severity definitions, incident communication and recovery procedures.

Vendor boundaries

Documented infrastructure, subprocessors, integrations and responsibility split.

AI-assisted development

Faster production. Human accountability.

AI can help structure requirements, draft implementation and extend test coverage. It does not approve architecture, access production independently or own a release decision.

Approved tools and boundaries

Client information follows agreed confidentiality, retention and tool-use rules.

Review material changes

Engineers verify behaviour, security implications and maintainability before release.

Test the output

Automated and human validation assess the actual software and workflow outcome, not the quality of a prompt.

Due diligence

A practical evidence pack for the product.

The level of detail grows with the system's sensitivity and the client's procurement process.

1

System map

Components, environments, trust boundaries and integrations.

2

Data flow

Classes, locations, retention, backups and export.

3

Runbook

Monitoring, access, incidents, recovery and support contacts.

4

Change record

Repositories, review, tests, releases and dependencies.

Bring security into discovery

Tell us what the workflow handles and what failure would mean.

We reflect those constraints in architecture, hosting, commercial scope and the operating plan.
