Cybersecurity-as-a-Service

The SAIC Platform

A standards-based, post-quantum resistant cryptographic key management protocol with fine-grained AI policy control. The same enforcement model applies everywhere your data moves. One platform for every use case — from emails to data lakes, IoT devices to cloud workloads.

Real-Time Monitoring

Your security command centre

A unified dashboard with real-time visibility into every encryption operation, AI-detected anomaly, and compliance signal — so teams can spot issues early and contain them before they spread.

Centralised Dashboard

Active keys, operation volumes, compliance scores, and anomalies — with drill-down by product, team, and data classification.

Severity-Prioritised Alerts

AI triages and escalates by severity (Critical / High / Medium). Routes to email, Slack, or PagerDuty with response tracking.

AI-Powered Recommendations

Surfaces keys to archive, policy gaps, and configuration fixes — each with impact and a suggested next step.

Platform Architecture

Two engines, one unified platform

SAIC combines a post-quantum cryptographic PaaS with an AI-driven policy PaaS, operating above the transport layer to protect applications and data at their foundational level — limiting blast radius when something goes wrong.

How SAIC is built

Cryptographic isolation

Each operation uses minimal key material — no global keys reused across contexts.

Revocable encryption

Withdraw access after data is shared — unlike static email attachments or file links.

Cryptographic agility

Swap algorithms as standards evolve — see our white papers for the architecture.

Breach containment

Security is not only confidentiality — the design limits how far a compromise can spread.

Channel-agnostic

One protection model across email, files, APIs, and internal workflows.

Decentralised Key Management

Zero keys stored on any server.
Ever.

SAIC isolates key material to each operation and context — no global keys reused across apps or tenants. The distributed architecture removes the single point of failure of traditional KMS: keys are computed on-demand and never persisted on any server.

On-demand key computation
Keys are computed at the moment they're needed, from distributed server shards. No server ever holds a complete key.
Standards-based PQ distribution
Built on NIST-approved post-quantum cryptographic standards, ensuring long-term security against quantum computing attacks.
DoS-tolerant distributed architecture
In practice, 2-3 servers are sufficient. Higher tolerance to denial-of-service attacks and server compromise.
Client-side operations only
Encrypt and decrypt in your app; ScipherX never sees plaintext. Keys arrive on a separate, policy-governed path so payloads and key material never meet on our servers.

RBAC & Policy Engine

Granular control at every level

SAIC implements Role-Based Access Control with a rich constraint system — including revocable encryption so access can be withdrawn after data is shared, unlike static attachments or shared links.

Policy Constraints

Time Limit

Set expiry windows — 30 min to 30 days. After expiry, access is automatically revoked without re-encryption.

dec_time_not_after: 7d
Access Limit

Restrict how many times a document can be decrypted. Prevent unlimited forwarding.

dec_max_calls: 3
Geo-Fencing

Allow or deny decryption by region for residency and compliance.

dec_loc_allowed: UK, EU

Constraint combinations

Policies travel with the data, not just the platform.

Developer-First

Enterprise-grade security.

The SAIC API hides sophisticated backend interactions — key generation, encryption, secure transmission, and policy enforcement — behind an elegant interface. Backed by robust enterprise infrastructure designed to handle the most critical data protection challenges.

Data Governance

Visibility into all your encrypted data.
Without ever seeing it.

SAIC's Governance layer gives your security team real-time oversight of every encrypted dataset across the organisation — access patterns, data lineage, risk signals, and dynamic controls — all without the platform ever processing plaintext.

AI Engine

Runtime policy adjustments, anomaly alerts, and enforcement — without re-encryption. The same engine can orchestrate approved client-side AI processing on your data (for example, summarisation) while keeping plaintext off ScipherX servers.

Policy & client-side AI

Key Request Visualisation

Pan-regional, multi-dimensional visualisation that keeps complex access activity legible — patterns and outliers surface before they become incidents.

Governance view

Dynamic Access Control

Revoke or grant access to encrypted data instantly — without re-encrypting. Shrinks the active access footprint when risk changes. Just-in-time access for privileged operations; AI recommends and operators approve or auto-enforce.

Instant revocation

Audit & Compliance

Tamper-proof. Always audit-ready.

Immutable audit logs with real-time streaming, AI-powered event correlation, and built-in compliance reporting for every major regulatory framework.

Audit Log Capabilities

  • Immutable, tamper-proof audit trail
  • Stream and filter by user, operation, key, IP, and location
  • AI-assisted correlation for faster investigations

Compliance coverage

SAIC is built to support compliance-oriented workflows: structured evidence, access lineage, and exportable reports your assurance teams can map to the obligations that apply to you. You remain responsible for interpretation, scope, and attestation — the platform supplies the operational record.
