Proof, not promises.
Argos OS is built by a cybersecurity company. Security isn't a feature bolted on at the end — it's the architecture. Here is exactly how we protect your data and prove our integrity.
A crown-jewel kernel
The Argos Kernel — which holds identity and the client graph — runs internal-only with no public ingress, its own database, and constant-time service-token authentication. The most sensitive component is the least exposed.
Hash-chained, Bitcoin-anchored audit
Critical events are written to an append-only, hash-chained log and anchored daily to the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps. Tampering is mathematically detectable — giving you court-grade proof of who did what, when.
Sovereign AI — zero data retention
The private AI gateway lets you choose where inference runs: public, sovereign cloud, on-prem open models, or your own endpoint. Prompts are never stored — only SHA-256 hashes are logged for audit.
Hardened against our own red team
Every product is reviewed and attacked internally before release — rate-limiting, IDOR client-scoping, SSRF guards, least-privilege scoped service keys, and secret rotation with history purge. We dogfood it on our own MSP fleet first.
Encryption everywhere
Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Traffic is fronted by a global edge with WAF, rate-limiting and DDoS protection, and origins are isolated behind authenticated tunnels.
Compliance built in
Argos GRC continuously maps live evidence across CIS v8.1, NIST CSF 2.0, SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, PCI DSS 4.0, NY DFS 500, NIST 800-171, CMMC L1/L2, CJIS and more — so your own posture is always audit-ready.
Found a vulnerability?
We welcome good-faith security research. If you believe you've found a vulnerability in Argos OS or argos-os.com, please email [email protected] with details and reproduction steps. Please do not access or modify data that isn't yours, and give us a reasonable window to remediate before public disclosure. We'll acknowledge your report and keep you updated.
