Security & ownership

Control is designed into the deployment.

Every deployment is built around one principle: your company owns the systems, the credentials, and the decisions. Remote access is temporary, and nothing is exposed to the public internet by default.

The boundary

Approved AI workloads stay inside your environment.

Documents, models, chat, and retrieval all run in the customer-controlled environment. Any exception is reviewed and approved by you before it exists.

The control matrix

Six commitments in every deployment.

Customer-owned infrastructure

You own the hardware, the credentials, and every operational decision. No shared root passwords.

Named, temporary access

Remote access is named, MFA-protected where possible, and removed after handoff unless support scope requires it.

No public exposure by default

AI services stay on the local network or behind VPN. Nothing is published to the open internet without approval.

No standing vendor access

There is no permanent InHouse Compute access path. Support access is explicit, logged, and revocable by you.

Customer-controlled backups

Backups and restore procedures live in your environment, documented for your team to run and verify.

Reviewed data boundaries

Any hosted dependency, external model call, or remote access is reviewed and approved before it is used.

In practice

How the posture holds up day to day.

Ownership

The customer owns infrastructure, credentials, backups, and operational decisions — start to finish.

Access

Remote access is temporary, named, MFA-protected where possible, and removed after handoff unless support scope requires it.

Exposure

AI services are not exposed publicly by default. Local network or VPN access is preferred.

Compliance caveat.

InHouse Compute is not a compliance certification provider. Deployments can be designed to support privacy and internal control goals, but regulated compliance claims (HIPAA, CMMC, SOC 2, and similar) depend on your full environment, policies, controls, and legal requirements — and require a dedicated compliance review.
