Encryption
AES-256 at rest. Per-tenant keys. Yours.
Every chunk encrypted AES-256 at rest. Per-tenant master keys. Zero-knowledge mode available via Nygma cross-product integration. TLS 1.3 in transit. Keys never leave your account, never readable by Genie9 staff.
The layers
Encrypted at every step.
At rest, in transit, and — when you need it — end-to-end where even Genie9 can’t read your data. Five layers of key control, plus a sixth promise: the keys are yours.
At rest
AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption per chunk. Per-tenant master key (data encryption key wrapped per tenant). Hardware security module (HSM) protected key material.
In transit
TLS 1.3 to all BigMind cloud endpoints. Certificate pinning in agent.
Zero-knowledge (Nygma cross-product)
For organizations needing absolute zero-knowledge: Nygma Cloud integration encrypts client-side with a key only the customer holds. Genie9 cannot decrypt under any circumstance — including subpoena. Trade-off: zero-knowledge means no AI Lens (we can’t index what we can’t read).
Key rotation
Per-tenant DEK rotated per policy (default annual). Re-encryption is incremental (re-wrap the DEK, not re-encrypt every chunk).
Key access modes
Standard mode: BigMind manages keys, can decrypt for AI Lens / Cloud Desktop. Zero-knowledge mode (Nygma): customer holds keys; BigMind cannot read data. Hybrid: select-folder zero-knowledge with rest standard.
Yours, end to end
Keys never leave your account and are never readable by Genie9 staff. Every chunk is encrypted AES-256 at rest before it leaves the machine.
The one mode where even we can’t read it.
For organizations needing absolute zero-knowledge, Nygma Cloud integration encrypts client-side with a key only the customer holds. Genie9 cannot decrypt under any circumstance — including subpoena. The trade-off is honest: zero-knowledge means no AI Lens, because we can’t index what we can’t read. Choose per-folder with Hybrid mode, or all-in.
