GoSearch Security & Data Governance

At GoSearch, security and governance aren’t afterthoughts—they are core to how we build and deliver AI-powered enterprise search. As organizations increasingly rely on AI to surface critical knowledge, maintaining control, security, and compliance is paramount. 

GoSearch is built with enterprise-grade security, AI governance policies, and robust data governance frameworks, ensuring your data remains protected, compliant, and under your control.

Enterprise-Grade Security

We adhere to the highest security standards to protect your enterprise knowledge:

  • SSO & Authentication: Seamless and secure authentication with support for SAML, OAuth, and SCIM ensures users access GoSearch through existing identity providers.
  • Permissions-Aware Search: GoSearch only indexes data that is available to all users to access. Leveraging personal connectors on top of our enterprise connectors allows users to securely search content that they have access to. This could be team documentation or personal documents. On top of that, this data is never indexed and is a real-time search to ensure sensitive information never gets in the wrong hands.
  • Granular Indexing & Access Controls: Organizations can define precisely what data gets indexed, limiting access at a detailed level to comply with internal security policies.
  • Zero Data Retention: GoSearch does not store your search data beyond its intended use, ensuring compliance with internal and external data privacy regulations.

AI Governance & Agent Guardrails

AI is a powerful tool—but only when used responsibly. Our AI governance framework ensures trust and transparency in every interaction:

  • Responsible AI Policies: Our AI models only access data users have permission to view, eliminating the risk of unauthorized data exposure.
  • Citations & Traceability: AI-generated answers always include citations, allowing users to verify the source of information.
  • Guardrails for AI Agents: Automated AI-powered assistants operate within strict guidelines to prevent hallucinations and misinformation, ensuring reliable responses.
  • Personal Connectors for Enhanced Search: Users can integrate personal data sources (like email or cloud storage) securely, maintaining individual privacy while improving search results.

Data Governance & Compliance

Enterprise data governance is critical in today’s regulatory landscape. GoSearch provides built-in controls to help organizations maintain compliance:

  • Fault-Tolerant Infrastructure: Built with no single point of failure, ensuring no loss of service.
  • SSL and Domain Security: HTTPS security (TLS 1.2). SSL certificates are 2048 bit RSA, signed with SHA256.
  • Audit Logging: Logging of device and IP address of all connections to GoSearch.
  • Access Governance: Users are granted visibility only to the data connectors for which they have authorized access or permissions. GoSearch’s dynamic indexing continually scans for updates to ensure the most current results are displayed.
  • Single Tenant Architecture: Your instance is hosted in its own VPC and only serves your company.
  • Indexing Controls: You can specify what you want indexed by GoSearch.
  • Hosting Control: You have the option to host your own data (bring your own cloud), or we can host your data
  • LLM Agnostic: Leverage your own LLM key and determine what LLM model you want to leverage.
  • Permissions-Respecting Indexing: We only index data that is publicly available or explicitly authorized by admins.
  • Sensitive Data Protection: Automated detection and reporting of overshared or sensitive data across applications enables proactive security management.
  • Security Governance Frameworks: GoSearch aligns with industry best practices and regulatory requirements to help enterprises maintain compliance with frameworks like GDPR, SOC 2 Type 2, and ISO 27001.
