Security & Compliance

Hyperion treats security as a first-class requirement for production LLM access. We do not rely on AI providers to secure your data. We provide the mandatory, zero-trust infrastructure layer between your application logic and the public foundational models.

Core Security Controls

  • Network & Transit: Strict TLS everywhere, HMAC request signing, and origin IP whitelisting.
  • Key Management: End-to-end API key encryption with automated, hitless rotation policies. Never commit a raw OpenAI key again.
  • Access Governance (Enterprise): Granular Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) securely tied to modern SSO providers (Okta, Entra, Google).
  • Active Middlewares: Inline PII redaction/sanitization pipelines run before the provider call is dispatched.
  • Injection Defense: Heuristic and semantic prompt injection checks intercept known exploitation patterns.
  • Audit Logging: Immutable logs of every transaction and administrative action, ready for immediate compliance export.

Deployments & Compliance Boundaries

Cloud SaaS

Fully managed with automatic updates & backups. Ideal for rapid prototyping and startups.

Self-Hosted

Complete control over your data residency. Deploy the binary into your own K8s cluster.

Private Cloud VPC

Dedicated isolation managed by our team within isolated cloud networks.

Air-Gapped Edition

No outbound "phone-home" traffic. Suitable for the highest security GovTech environments.

Data Residency & Incident Controls

Configure request and response retention uniquely on a per-tenant basis natively in the gateway. Support includes direct export to Snowflake, BigQuery, or long-term compliant backup to S3.

When incidents occur, time is critical. Hyperion enables administrators to auto-pause any compromised key instantly, transparently revoke and rotate provider keys upstream without dropping incoming traffic, and streams security-critical events directly to SIEMs (Datadog, PagerDuty, or secure webhooks).

Security FAQs

Yes — configurable rulesets for common PII (emails, SSNs, phone numbers) and custom patterns.
