Security & trust

Security built into the data layer.

Cadence enforces row-level security, per-organization isolation, server-authoritative workflow logic, and an append-only audit trail — so sensitive HR data stays protected and accountable.

Row-level security everywhere

Row-level security is enabled on every table. User-owned data like notifications and AI conversations is scoped to the authenticated user, so records are protected at the database layer.

Strict per-organization isolation

Every query and AI tool is scoped to a single organization. Records, documents, policies, and workflows from one company are never visible to another.

Server-authoritative logic

Readiness, dependency gating, and legal status transitions are computed on the server and never trusted from the client. Every mutation runs through authenticated, validated server actions.

Role-based access control

A central RBAC matrix governs who can view and act on each module. People only reach the information and actions relevant to their role.

Append-only audit trail

Every mutation writes an immutable audit event recording the actor, action, and detail — and whether it was performed by a human or by Candice.

Grounded, least-disclosure AI

Candice only asserts what your data supports, proposes actions a human must approve, and withholds sensitive figures like pay bands from users who aren't authorized to see them.

Controlled document handling

Policies, handbooks, and evidence live in access-controlled storage buckets so sensitive documents stay scoped to the right organization and roles.

Server-only privileged access

The service-role database client is server-only and never imported by client code, keeping privileged operations off the browser entirely.

Designed with compliance in mind.

Cadence is built to support responsible, audit-friendly HR operations. Formal compliance certifications are part of our future roadmap as the platform matures.
