Security Model

This page describes the security architecture of the Bluefly LLM ecosystem.

Security Principles

The Bluefly LLM ecosystem is built with the following security principles:

  • Defense in Depth: Multiple layers of security controls
  • Least Privilege: Minimal access rights for components and users
  • Secure by Default: Security enabled in default configurations
  • Privacy by Design: Privacy considerations built into all components

Authentication

The ecosystem uses a centralized authentication system:

  • API Keys: For service-to-service authentication
  • JWT Tokens: For user authentication and session management
  • OAuth 2.0: For third-party integrations
  • MFA: Optional multi-factor authentication for sensitive operations

Authorization

Access control is managed through:

  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Permissions based on user roles
  • Resource-Level Permissions: Fine-grained access controls for resources
  • API Rate Limiting: Protection against abuse and DoS attacks

Data Protection

Data is protected using:

  • Encryption in Transit: TLS 1.3 for all communications
  • Encryption at Rest: AES-256 for stored data
  • Data Masking: For sensitive information in logs and displays
  • Secure Storage: Protection for API keys and credentials

Vulnerability Management

Security vulnerabilities are managed through:

  • Dependency Scanning: Regular checks for vulnerable dependencies
  • Code Scanning: Static analysis for security issues
  • Security Testing: Regular penetration testing
  • Responsible Disclosure: Process for reporting and addressing vulnerabilities

Compliance

The security model is designed to support compliance with:

  • GDPR
  • HIPAA (where applicable)
  • SOC 2
  • ISO 27001

Incident Response

In case of security incidents:

  • Documented incident response procedures
  • Regular security drills and simulations
  • Post-incident analysis and remediation
  • Communication protocols for stakeholders
