Owner isolation
Conversation, memory and operational state remain associated with the authorized owner context.
TRUST & SECURITY
Authority, boundaries and evidence around every action.
Z.E.R.O is engineered so that intelligence does not automatically become authority. Identity, policy, approval and audit remain between intent and sensitive execution.
CONTROL MODEL
Governance follows the work from start to finish.
Controls are applied across conversations, memory, AI employees, tools, agents, connectivity and remote operations.
Permission enforcement
Agents and AI employees are checked against permitted tools, operations and memory scopes.
Human approvals
Sensitive assignments and remote actions pause for an accountable authorization decision.
Privacy-safe audit
Lifecycle events remain traceable while prompts, responses and tool arguments are excluded from routine audit records.
Budget controls
Usage thresholds progress from warning to urgent, approval and hard-limit states.
Failure boundaries
Timeouts, cancellation, stop-on-failure and safe shutdown prevent uncontrolled continuation.
Device trust
Remote access uses registered identity, device trust, session expiration and revocation.
Secret protection
Production readiness includes repository secret scanning and configuration safeguards.
Governed learning
Learning changes are proposed and reviewed rather than silently applied to production behavior.
ACTION PATH
No sensitive action skips the control plane.
The same principle applies whether a task begins in voice, desktop, an AI employee, a specialist agent or a remote device.
Authenticate
Resolve owner, user, device and session.
Authorize
Check role, permission, tool and scope.
Assess
Evaluate risk, budget and policy.
Approve
Pause when accountable consent is required.
Execute & audit
Run within limits and preserve evidence.
Certifications and compliance
Z.E.R.O does not currently claim ISO, SOC, regulatory or other independent certification. The platform is being built with governance and production-readiness controls, but formal claims will only be published after the relevant independent assessment is completed.
