Security Model
Security Model describes the assumptions, boundaries, and controls that AeThex systems should follow.
Model overview
The model defines how identity, permissions, tenants, services, and data boundaries interact.
The AeThex security model starts with verified identity, then applies context-aware authorization inside organizations, teams, projects, services, and integrations.
Trust boundaries
- Browser/client boundary.
- API boundary.
- Organization and project tenant boundary.
- Service-to-service boundary.
- Admin and support tooling boundary.
- Public community and open-source boundary.
Required controls
- Server-side validation for all protected operations.
- Explicit tenant context on protected resources.
- Least-privilege access by default.
- Audit logs for sensitive changes.
- Secret rotation and credential lifecycle management.
- Clear incident and disclosure processes.
