Audit Trail: Immutable Evidence Chain

Every AI interaction is recorded as a Merkle-chain SHA-256 hash-verified immutable record. 7-year retention, cryptographic proof, and compliance export ensure you can prove exactly what your AI did, when, and why.

How the Audit Trail Works

From interaction to cryptographic proof

01

Interaction Captured

Every AI query, response, TRACE score, and CERI constraint is captured as a structured record at the moment of generation.

02

SHA-256 Hash Generated

Each record is cryptographically hashed using SHA-256. The hash includes the previous record's hash, forming a Merkle chain.

03

Merkle Chain Extended

The new hash-linked record is appended to the immutable chain. Any tampering with historical records breaks the chain and is immediately detectable.

04

Compliance Export

Export audit records in regulator-ready formats. Filter by date range, user, workspace, TRACE tier, or regulatory framework.

Audit Trail Capabilities

Cryptographic evidence for every AI decision

Merkle-Chain Integrity

Every record is hash-linked to the previous. Tampering with any record breaks the chain, providing cryptographic proof of integrity.

SHA-256 Hash Verification

Industry-standard SHA-256 hashing ensures each record is uniquely fingerprinted. Verify any record independently.

7-Year Retention

Audit records are retained for 7 years by default, meeting the most stringent regulatory retention requirements in financial services.

Cryptographic Proof

Generate verifiable proofs for any record or range of records. Regulators can independently verify the chain without platform access.

Compliance Export

Export audit trails in PDF, CSV, and JSON formats. Pre-formatted for EU AI Act Art. 12 record-keeping and GDPR Art. 30 processing records.

Immutable Records

Records cannot be modified or deleted. The append-only architecture ensures a complete, unbroken history of every AI interaction.
