Platform · Security

Security by design. Protection at every layer.

The agentic AI platform for multilingual content in regulated industries. Enterprise-grade security controls protect your data across every layer of its flow.

Enterprise security

Built for regulated content.

Regular internal and external penetration testing assesses our backend infrastructure. Every client's data is logically segregated, access is scoped to their organization, and all LLM requests are routed exclusively over secured connections.

AI & client data · A zero-training commitment

0%

of your content is ever used to train or fine-tune a model.

Prompts and metadata are processed transiently to return your translation and are not retained by our model vendors. You set the data-retention policy for your organization, down to zero.

How we protect your data

Defense in depth, across every layer.

Controls span the network, identity, data and monitoring layers, so a single failure is never a single point of exposure.

  • 01 · Network & infrastructure

    Security by design

    Protection is engineered into every layer of the data flow, not bolted on afterward.

    • Internal and external penetration testing
    • Client data segregated and access-scoped
    • LLM requests over secured connections only
    • Network segregation and access restriction
  • 02 · AI & client data

    Your data stays yours

    Your content is used to serve you, and for nothing else.

    • Never used to train or fine-tune any model
    • Processed transiently for your translation
    • Prompts and metadata never retained
    • You control data retention, down to zero
  • 03 · Access control

    Authentication & authorization

    Access is granted narrowly, verified strongly, and never shared.

    • Least-privilege role-based access control
    • Multi-factor authentication enforced
    • API keys and tokens stored securely
  • 04 · Audit & monitoring

    Logged & reviewable

    Every action leaves a record that can be independently reviewed, at any time.

    • Every access event and API call is logged
    • Full logs are reviewable on demand
    • Regular privileged-access reviews
Encryption everywhere
  • TLS 1.2 / 1.3Data in transit. Encryption, authentication and message integrity on every connection.
  • AES-256Data at rest. Contents, databases and backups are all encrypted.

Data residency

OTTO runs where the data has to stay.

API-first, on-prem or private cloud, or as an orchestration layer over your own models.

  • Deployment

    On-prem or private cloud

    OTTO runs on-prem or in your private cloud, and your content stays in your environment.

  • Hosting

    A private server

    OTTO runs on a private server in an entirely secure online environment.

  • Public sector

    In-jurisdiction (data residency)

    A government-owned transport organization required data residency within its own jurisdiction as a non-negotiable condition.

Enterprise-grade security. Data residency. Auditability.

FAQ

The questions your security team asks first.

Something specific to your security review? Talk to our team.

Is our content used to train AI models?

No. 0% of your content is ever used to train or fine-tune a model. Prompts and metadata are processed transiently to return your translation and are not retained by our model vendors.

How long is our data kept?

You set the data-retention policy for your organization, down to zero. Prompts and metadata are processed transiently and never retained.

Can OTTO run in our own environment?

Yes. OTTO runs on-prem or in your private cloud, and your content stays in your environment. A government-owned transport organization required data residency within its own jurisdiction as a non-negotiable condition. OTTO runs where the data has to stay.

How is our data protected?

Every client's data is logically segregated, access is scoped to their organization, and all LLM requests are routed exclusively over secured connections. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2 / 1.3) and at rest (AES-256), and regular internal and external penetration testing assesses our backend infrastructure.

Who can access our content?

Access is granted narrowly, verified strongly, and never shared: least-privilege role-based access control, enforced multi-factor authentication, and regular privileged-access reviews. At TRSB, every new hire undergoes a background check and signs a confidentiality agreement, and access reviews are performed quarterly.

Which security certifications apply?

SOC 2: an independent auditor's report on the design and implementation of security controls, covering Security, with Confidentiality and Availability in scope. ISO/IEC 27001, NIST CSF 2.0, GDPR, Quebec's Law 25 and PIPEDA: our controls are designed following each framework. Certifications and attestations are maintained by TRSB, the parent organization behind OTTO, covering the infrastructure and controls on which OTTO operates.

How is each decision audited?

Every recommendation is logged with its reason. Every output is scored with a stated reason. Every access event and API call is logged, and full logs are reviewable on demand.

How is OTTO different from free online translation tools?

Online software is fine for personal use but risky in a business context: it offers no guarantees of confidentiality and actually uses your content to build its database. OTTO runs on a private server in an entirely secure online environment.
