Documentation

Architecture for governed enterprise action.

A public overview for engineering, security, compliance and operations teams. Prudenze combines workload identity, business authority, current evidence, policy and verified execution in one control chain.

The control chain

01

Identity & authority

02

Intent & constraints

03

Current evidence

04

Applicable policy

05

Authorization

06

Controlled execution

07

Verification & evidence

Interoperability

Qualified control interfaces.

These interfaces are exercised through deterministic adapters and tests. Each one remains inside Prudenze's authority boundary: external identity, policy and telemetry enrich the control chain without bypassing Guardian or the GDO record.

OpenTelemetry

JavaScript SDK 2.11.0 · GenAI conventions snapshot bcc7f9c

Prudenze exchanges standards-aligned OpenTelemetry GenAI traces and correlates them with decisions and GDO records.

Telemetry is observability evidence; it does not replace the governed decision record or authorize an action.

SPIFFE/SPIRE

SPIRE 1.15.3

Prudenze accepts SPIFFE/SPIRE workload identity as input to Arkon authority and delegation evaluation.

A valid workload identity establishes who is running. It does not grant business authority by itself.

Cedar

SDK/CLI 4.13.0 · language 4.5

Prudenze incorporates Cedar authorization decisions into Guardian's final action decision.

A Cedar permit is policy input and does not automatically equal a Prudenze ALLOW decision.

Open Policy Agent

OPA 1.21.1 · Rego v1 · WebAssembly

Prudenze incorporates OPA/Rego decisions into Guardian's consequential-action controls.

Guardian retains the final ALLOW, ESCALATE or DENY decision and fails closed when required policy input is unavailable.

Deployment models

Managed deployment

Containerized deployment with an isolated customer environment.

Customer infrastructure

Docker or Kubernetes within customer-controlled cloud or infrastructure.

Air-gapped

Local infrastructure with zero-egress capability and customer identity provider.

Prudenze does not expose private implementation details, credentials or customer configurations through public documentation.
