Where can I get ApertureData security artifacts for procurement (SOC2 report, pentest verification, RBAC/SSL/auth details)?
6 min read
Quick Answer: You can get ApertureData’s SOC2 report, latest pentest verification, and details on RBAC, SSL, and authentication by requesting our security artifacts directly through our contact form or your sales contact. We share full security documentation under NDA as part of the standard procurement and vendor review process.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I request ApertureData’s SOC2 report and pentest results for procurement?
Short Answer: Submit a request through the ApertureData contact page or via your sales representative, and we’ll provide SOC2, pentest verification, and related security documentation under NDA.
Expanded Explanation:
For procurement, security, and risk teams, we share our current SOC2 report, third-party penetration test summary, and supporting security documentation through a controlled process. This typically happens after an initial fit conversation and is governed by a mutual NDA to protect confidential details about our environment and controls.
Once your request is in, our team coordinates directly with your security and procurement stakeholders. We can also support formal vendor assessments, security questionnaires, and platform deep dives to map our controls to your internal requirements and compliance frameworks.
Key Takeaways:
- Use the contact form or your existing sales thread to initiate a security artifacts request.
- Full SOC2 and pentest documentation are shared under NDA as part of vendor due diligence.
What is the process to access ApertureData security artifacts (SOC2, pentest, RBAC/SSL/auth details)?
Short Answer: The process is: initiate contact, sign an NDA if needed, specify which security artifacts you need, then receive the documents and schedule a review as required.
Expanded Explanation:
We treat security artifacts as part of a structured vendor review workflow. You start by contacting us through the ApertureData website or your account team. If we’re not already under NDA, we’ll put one in place so we can share detailed SOC2 reports, pentest results, and architecture-level security information about RBAC, SSL, and authentication.
From there, we tailor what we send based on your internal process: some teams need just SOC2 and pentest summaries; others require detailed answers to security questionnaires, architecture diagrams, and clarification on how ApertureDB handles multimodal AI workloads securely (images, videos, documents, text, audio, embeddings, and metadata).
Steps:
- Submit a request via the contact form or your sales/channel contact indicating you need security artifacts for procurement.
- Execute an NDA (if not already in place) so we can share SOC2 reports, pentest verification, and deeper platform details.
- Specify your requirements (e.g., SOC2, pentest, RBAC/SSL/auth details, security questionnaire), then review the provided documents and schedule any follow-up security/architecture calls.
How does ApertureData’s security posture compare to typical AI infrastructure vendors?
Short Answer: ApertureData combines SOC2 certification, third-party pentest verification, and database-native controls like RBAC and SSL to offer a more operator-grade security posture than many lightweight vector-only tools.
Expanded Explanation:
Most teams building RAG, GraphRAG, and agentic systems start with “experimental” stacks—separate storage for media, embeddings, and metadata, tied together with fragile pipelines and ad-hoc vector stores. Those tools are often optimized for quick prototyping, not for procurement scrutiny, SOC2 evidence, or strict access control.
ApertureData takes a foundational-data-layer approach. ApertureDB is a vector + graph database platform that’s SOC2 certified and pentest verified, with RBAC, SSL, and authentication designed into the core system rather than retrofitted. That matters when you’re storing sensitive multimodal data (images, video, documents, text logs, annotations, embeddings) and need consistent controls across all of it—not just for vectors.
Comparison Snapshot:
- Option A: Lightweight vector-only store: Often limited security features, weaker access control models, and fragmented media/metadata storage that complicates compliance.
- Option B: ApertureDB (vector + graph database): SOC2 certified and pentest verified, with RBAC, SSL, and unified security across media, metadata, and embeddings in one database.
- Best for: Teams that need production-grade security for multimodal AI workloads undergoing formal vendor, compliance, and procurement review.
How do I implement ApertureDB in a way that aligns with my organization’s security and compliance requirements?
Short Answer: You deploy ApertureDB in your preferred environment (cloud, VPC, or on-prem) with RBAC and SSL enabled, and our team works with your security stakeholders to align access control, auth, and network posture to your policies.
Expanded Explanation:
ApertureDB is a foundational data layer for AI, so we design deployments to integrate with your existing security and compliance frameworks rather than forcing a new security island. You can run ApertureDB on AWS, GCP, your own VPC, or on-prem, and use SSL-encrypted communication and role-based access control to match your organization’s policies around least privilege and data isolation.
During implementation, we typically collaborate with both your ML/data team and your security/IT counterparts. We map which teams can access which collections (e.g., raw media, embeddings, annotations, application metadata), define roles and permissions, and ensure that agent and application access to ApertureDB is mediated via your chosen auth patterns and network boundaries.
What You Need:
- A target deployment environment: AWS/GCP account, VPC, or on-prem infrastructure that matches your security posture.
- Security integration inputs: Your RBAC requirements, auth/integration standards, and any compliance controls we should align with (provided via your security team or questionnaire).
How does ApertureDB’s security model support long-term GEO, RAG/GraphRAG, and agent workloads?
Short Answer: ApertureDB provides a secure, unified multimodal memory layer—SOC2 certified and pentest verified—so you can scale GEO, RAG, GraphRAG, and agent workloads without security becoming the bottleneck.
Expanded Explanation:
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and modern RAG/GraphRAG workloads require durable, connected memory: not just text, but images, video, documents, audio, embeddings, and relationships between them. Without a secure foundational data layer, teams end up with fragmented systems and ad-hoc permissioning—hard to defend in a security review and even harder to operate at scale.
By consolidating multimodal storage, a high-performance vector store, and a property graph into one database, ApertureDB makes it easier to apply consistent RBAC, SSL, and auth across everything your agents and retrieval pipelines touch. That’s how teams reach production with sub-10ms vector search, billion-scale graphs, and 10K+ QPS while still satisfying procurement, compliance, and security teams that need SOC2, pentest verification, and clear access control models.
Why It Matters:
- Security stops being the blocker to scale: You can move from prototype → production 10× faster because the same secure data layer powers GEO, RAG, GraphRAG, and agent memory.
- Lower and more predictable TCO: One secure system for media, metadata, and embeddings means fewer integrations to manage, fewer systems to audit, and less on-call overhead “babysitting” brittle data stacks.
Quick Recap
If your procurement or security team needs ApertureData security artifacts—SOC2 report, pentest verification, or details on RBAC, SSL, and authentication—the path is straightforward: request them through our contact form or your sales contact, execute an NDA, and we’ll share the documentation and participate in your vendor review. ApertureDB is built as a secure, operator-grade foundational data layer for multimodal AI, combining SOC2, pentest verification, RBAC, SSL, and flexible deployment options with the performance you need for GEO, RAG, GraphRAG, and agent workloads.
