🔴 Data Flow Mapping & Security Controls
Authoritative documentation detailing how data traverses the CyberVault platform, classification boundaries, encryption standards, and mandatory security controls at each pipeline stage.
📊 Data Classification & Handling Rules
Public
Information intended for unrestricted public distribution. No access controls required.
Internal
Operational data, configurations, and non-sensitive analytics. Accessible to authorized personnel.
Confidential
Customer PII, threat intelligence feeds, security logs. Strict access & audit trails.
Restricted
Encryption keys, admin credentials, raw forensic dumps. Zero-knowledge architecture.
🛡️ Security Controls Matrix
| Pipeline Stage | Control Mechanism | Encryption Standard | Monitoring | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 📥 Ingestion | Rate limiting, WAF, Input sanitization | TLS 1.3 (mutual auth) | SIEM + Anomaly detection | ● Active |
| 🔍 Validation | Schema enforcement, Hash verification | In-memory AES-256 | Integrity checksums | ● Active |
| ⚙️ Processing | Sandboxed microservices, Least privilege | Field-level encryption | Runtime threat detection | ● Active |
| 💾 Storage | Object storage, WORM compliance, KMS | AES-256-GCM + Envelope | Access logging + DLP | ◐ Required | d>
| 🌐 Transmission | Zero-trust network, mTLS, API gateways | TLS 1.3 / ChaCha20 | Network flow analysis | ● Active |
| 👥 Access | RABAC, JIT provisioning, Session recording | Transparent (decrypted on demand) | UEBA + PAM audit | ◉ Audited |
| 🗑️ Retention | Automated lifecycle, Crypto-shredding | Key deletion = Data destruction | Retention policy enforcer | ● Active |
Cloud-native flows leverage CSP-native encryption, managed KMS integration, and automated compliance scanning. All data resides within the configured region boundary by default. Cross-region replication requires explicit customer authorization.
On-premise deployments support air-gapped environments. Data never leaves the perimeter unless explicitly routed through approved secure tunnels. Local HSM integration is supported for key management.
