Security Architecture

Security is a first-class architectural concern in PotatoLabs.

Core controls

• Authenticate access to repositories, environments, and operations tooling
• Authorize actions by role and environment
• Store secrets outside source control
• Minimize exposed network surfaces
• Prefer secure defaults in platform configuration
• Review dependencies and runtime images before adoption

Product and platform responsibilities

The platform provides common security capabilities.

Products are responsible for using those capabilities correctly and for securing their own data and interfaces.

Data protection

• Sensitive data should be minimized
• Access to production data should be controlled and auditable
• Backups must be protected to the same standard as the data they contain

Delivery security

CI/CD should be used to enforce checks such as validation, tests, and release gates where practical.

Incident response

Security events must be observable and actionable through logs, alerts, and an agreed operational response path.
