Security & Governance
Every request is verified. No implicit trust—role-based access, audit, and compliance in one place. So you can prove who did what and meet compliance without extra tools.
Built for regulated enterprises.
Verify every request
Every request is validated: identity, tokens or certificates, and access level. No implicit trust; enforce least-privilege and audit all access.
Token & certificate validation
Validate tokens from your identity provider or custom issuers. Optional client certificate authentication for high-assurance partners and upstream connections.
Role-based access and separation of duties
Roles for view, edit, admin, and audit. Admins sign in with your identity provider; clear separation so compliance teams can audit without making changes.
Credential storage, rotation, and secrets from your environment
Credentials encrypted at rest. Rotate API keys and certificates on a schedule or after a compromise. Reference secrets from your environment (e.g. Vault) so sensitive values never sit in config.
IP allowlists and per-partner access
Restrict which IP addresses can use each access level. Per-partner access control so each partner sees only the API products and limits assigned to them.
Compliance readiness
Full audit trail and configurable logging. Designed to support banking and financial services, healthcare, and government requirements; enterprise authentication and single sign-on (SSO) ready.
Secure credential storage
API and partner credentials stored encrypted. Secrets from your environment (e.g. Vault) keep sensitive values in your runtime and out of version control.
