Secure the path that authorizes execution.
TracePoint applies policy before execution, binds authorization to one exact action, rejects invalid state, and connects the resulting evidence and recovery context.
Controls exercised through Operational Change Authorization.
The local product verifies these controls before applying a bounded operational change. Enterprise identity, durable persistence, tenant isolation, external connectors, and production operations require deployment-specific implementation and verification.
Server side policy evaluation
Evaluates authority and policy on the server before an authorization can be issued.
Action bound authorization
Binds permission to the actor, target, operation, purpose, policy version, and action fingerprint.
Single use enforcement
Consumes an authorization after its permitted execution to prevent replay.
Revocation and expiry
Refuses authorization that has been withdrawn or has passed its validity window.
Idempotency and replay rejection
Returns the original decision for duplicate evaluation and rejects repeated execution.
Payload mismatch rejection
Compares the execution payload with the authorized action fingerprint before side effects.
Ordered evidence
Keeps decision events and referenced versions connected in sequence.
Receipt and recovery context
Connects the execution result, receipt, and available remediation path to the decision.
Security follows the decision from request to evidence.
Each stage narrows the authority to proceed and preserves the basis for the next control.
Validate the actor reference and proposed action contract.
Evaluate purpose, scope, eligibility, limits, authority validity, and pinned policy version.
Route defined exceptions to an accountable reviewer.
Require a valid, matching, active, single use authorization.
Connect the decision, authorization, execution, receipt, and recovery context.
The public product environment uses local identity and process memory. Enterprise identity, durable storage, tenant controls, and external enforcement are deployment specific.
External enforcement depends on a verified implementation boundary.
Each deployment defines identity, access, durability, target authentication, monitoring, recovery, and shared operational responsibility before an external system treats TracePoint as an authorization dependency.
Identity and access
Authenticated actors, reviewers, administrators, role enforcement, and revocation.
Durability and recovery
Transactional persistence, idempotency retention, backups, and receipt reconciliation.
Platform security
Transport security, encryption, secrets management, monitoring, and incident response.
Shared responsibility
Explicit customer, connector, hosting, operations, and availability responsibilities.
