Zero Trust Architecture
Security by design. Every request authenticated, every endpoint protected, every data flow encrypted. How Aevum Encyclopedia safeguards knowledge at scale.
Never Trust, Always Verify
In a platform hosting 2.4M+ articles, 180K contributors, and real-time AI inference pipelines, perimeter-based security is obsolete. Aevum's Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) eliminates implicit trust, enforcing strict identity verification, least-privilege access, and continuous behavioral monitoring across all network layers.
Explicit Verification
Every access request is fully authenticated and authorized based on all available data points, including identity, location, device health, and service integrity.
Least Privilege Access
Users and services receive only the minimum access required to perform their function, dynamically adjusted via Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC).
Assume Breach
Architecture is designed to minimize blast radius. Micro-segmentation, encrypted data-in-transit, and automated threat containment limit lateral movement.
Request Lifecycle & Security Gates
Client Authentication & Device Posture
MFA, certificate pinning, and hardware-backed attestation validate the source before any network handshake.
Policy Decision Point (PDP)
Real-time policy engine evaluates identity context, risk score, and historical behavior against adaptive access rules.
Micro-Segmented Service Mesh
Approved requests route through isolated service domains. East-west traffic is encrypted and policy-enforced.
Data Plane & Continuous Monitoring
All data at rest is encrypted (AES-256). DLP, anomaly detection, and audit logging run in parallel to detect deviations.

ZTA Reference ArchitectureFrequently Asked Questions
Contributor identities are bound to device posture and behavioral baselines. Any anomalous access pattern triggers step-up authentication or session revocation. All draft submissions are encrypted end-to-end and stored in isolated tenant volumes.
Micro-segmentation contains lateral movement. Our SOAR pipelines automatically isolate affected nodes, revoke compromised tokens, and trigger forensic snapshots. Recovery time is minimized through immutable infrastructure and automated rollbacks.
Model inference endpoints require mTLS and workload identity. Prompt injection filters, output sandboxing, and vector database encryption prevent data leakage. All training data undergoes automated PII redaction and compliance scanning.
Yes. We support SCIM provisioning, SAML 2.0, OIDC, and custom policy webhooks. Enterprise tenants can enforce their own ABAC rules while inheriting our baseline zero-trust controls.
