SECURITY

Security built for the defence sector

Ares Horizon is designed for organisations where data protection is non-negotiable. You decide where the platform runs, who can access what, and which AI models touch your data.

You choose where your data lives

The platform supports three deployment models — all with the same encryption and access controls.

Cloud
A fully managed deployment for teams that want to start quickly — with full encryption and access control from day one.
Sovereign
Deployment in a sovereign or government-approved environment, meeting national data-residency requirements.
On-premises
The full platform — including AI models — runs entirely inside your own infrastructure. Nothing leaves your environment.

How we protect your data

Encrypted everywhere

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Role-based access

Access is role-based and limited to what each user needs.

Immutable audit log

Every access and every change is recorded in an immutable audit log.

Never used for training

Your data never trains external AI models.

AI you can control — and verify

Local or cloud models — your choice

Depending on your requirements, we use locally deployed frontier models or leading cloud models. You control which models are used for which tasks.

PII anonymisation

Where cloud models are used, personally identifiable information is anonymised first.

Citations, not black boxes

AI outputs are always supported by direct citations and contract excerpts.

Expert review, marked explicitly

Judgements reviewed and approved by legal or compliance professionals are marked explicitly in the platform.

Security requirements differ between organisations and programmes. Tell us about yours — we will walk you through the architecture, deployment options and controls.
