Data handling and privacy
Data categories, purpose, source, ownership, minimization, location, retention, deletion, transfer, subprocessor, and contractual requirements.
Security
Security controls are scoped, implemented, and verified for the engagement
Kubto treats security as a set of environment-specific decisions and evidence across data, identity, application, infrastructure, AI behavior, deployment, and operations.
Who this is for
Security, procurement, technology, and product teams evaluating how a proposed engagement will handle data, access, dependencies, deployment, and operational risk.
Problem to solve
Generic security language cannot establish the controls in a specific system. Buyers need a data flow, responsibility model, control scope, verification method, and contractual commitment.
Kubto does not claim a security or compliance certification on this page. Applicable controls, evidence, audit support, data-processing terms, and customer requirements are confirmed in the relevant engagement documents.
Scope
Control areas considered during solution design
Not every control applies to every engagement. The control set and verification depth depend on data, architecture, deployment, access, regulation, and agreed responsibilities.
Identity and access
Human and service identities, least privilege, environment separation, authentication, authorization, approval, revocation, and access review.
Secrets and configuration
Secret storage, delivery, rotation, logging exclusions, environment configuration, key ownership, and incident replacement.
Application and integration security
Input validation, output handling, API protection, dependency risk, session and permission boundaries, errors, logging, and abuse controls.
Infrastructure and delivery
Network boundaries, hardening, images, artifacts, deployment permissions, vulnerability handling, backup, recovery, and observability.
AI-specific risk
Prompt injection, data leakage, tool permissions, retrieval access, unsafe output, evaluation, human review, fallback, and provider data terms.
Architecture
How security becomes part of delivery
- 01
Classify and map
Identify data, users, systems, trust boundaries, providers, access, purpose, and potential impact.
- 02
Threat and control design
Document credible abuse and failure scenarios, required controls, owners, inherited controls, and residual risk.
- 03
Implement and verify
Apply the agreed controls and collect evidence through review, testing, configuration inspection, or operational validation.
- 04
Operate and respond
Define logging, alerting, vulnerability and change handling, incident contacts, recovery, evidence retention, and review cadence.
Deliverables
What the engagement can produce
✓
Data-flow and trust-boundary diagram
Sources, destinations, identities, providers, storage, transfers, access, logging, and deletion relationships.
✓
Responsibility and control matrix
Required controls, implementation owner, inherited service, verification method, evidence, exception, and review owner.
✓
Security validation record
The agreed review and test results, limitations, open findings, remediation ownership, and acceptance decision.
✓
Operational security notes
Access process, secret rotation, monitoring, vulnerability response, backup and recovery, incidents, and change review.
Boundaries
Boundaries and decisions to verify
Good work is easier to trust when the team knows what is included, what still needs proof, and who owns each decision.
No certification implied
This page is not an audit report, penetration-test result, certification, compliance opinion, or representation that every listed control is currently implemented.
Shared responsibility applies
Customer, Kubto, cloud, platform, model, and other providers each own controls that must be documented for the selected architecture.
Signed documents define commitments
Security schedules, DPAs, subprocessors, locations, retention, incident terms, warranties, and audit rights apply only as stated in executed agreements.
Bring the security questionnaire and proposed data flow early
Kubto can identify which controls can be answered now, which depend on architecture, and which require contractual or customer decisions.
