Protect systems and data through authentication, authorization, secrets handling, and baseline security controls.
When security is treated as a late-stage concern, access boundaries weaken and system trust erodes quickly.
This repo focuses on security baselines, service access patterns, and threat-model direction. It does not try to be a full compliance program.
aegis is the security layer for the ecosystem. It defines the control points that backend, API, and platform repos should respect.
- Depends on: infrastructure context from
nimbusand service boundaries fromatlas. - Feeds into: secure service and API implementations.
- Interacts with:
forge,gateway,beacon.
- authentication
- authorization
- secret handling
- least privilege
- threat modeling
docs/threat-model.md and policies/service-access.yaml provide the starter security baseline.
Security here is practical system protection: clear access boundaries, explicit assumptions, and controls that map to real services.
Add token-validation patterns, secret rotation notes, and service-level security checklists.
