Enterprise Data Protection
The Pika platform provides enterprise-grade data protection and security through architectural design principles that ensure complete data isolation and zero cross-contamination risk. Built entirely on Amazon Web Services with AWS AI team validation, Pika implements a security-first architecture that guarantees your data remains under your control and isolated from other organizations.
Core Security Principle: Defense in Depth Architecture
The fundamental security design of Pika ensures that the AI model cannot accidentally return data from the wrong user or entity through a defense in depth approach with multiple independent security layers:
- AI Model Layer: AWS Bedrock ensures separation at the AI model level - models cannot access or modify user/entity identity context
- Application Layer: Your custom tools and business logic enforce organizational boundaries and data access rules
- Infrastructure Layer: AWS provides network isolation, database segmentation, and encrypted storage
This multi-layered security architecture means that even if one layer were compromised, multiple other layers continue to protect your data. The LLM agent cannot control or modify user or entity identity context - it functions purely as a coordinator while security is enforced at every other layer.
How Identity Information is Secured
LLM Agent Control Isolation
The AI model (LLM) serving as the agent cannot control or modify:
- User ID or authentication context
- Entity/company/account assignment
- Cross-user session access permissions
- Administrative permissions or role assignments
The agent functions as a coordinator that:
- Receives the user's question
- Determines which tools to call
- Orchestrates the response based on tool results
- Can see user identity information when tools return it (e.g., "Who am I logged in as" tools)
- Cannot influence WHO the request is being made on behalf of
Secure Context Passing via AWS Bedrock
Critical user and entity information is passed securely using AWS Bedrock's session management system:
// This data is passed to tools via Bedrock sessionAttributes and the LLM cannot set it or modify it
// and all tools ensure that LLM requests that attempt to provide such context is ignored in favor
// of the canonical data in the session.
sessionAttributes: {
userId: simpleUser.userId, // User making the request
chatAppId: chatSession.chatAppId, // Which app context
agentId: agentAndTools.agent.agentId,// Which agent is running
accountId: user.customData.accountId, // Entity/company context
}
Key Security Benefits:
- No Identity Control Risk: The LLM cannot hallucinate or modify user/entity identity since it cannot control the authentication context
- Tool-Level Enforcement: Each tool receives the authenticated context independently from Bedrock session state and validates permissions accordingly
- AWS-Managed Security: Leverages AWS Bedrock's built-in security for session state management
- Transparent Operation: Users can query "Who am I logged in as" and see their identity, while the system maintains security
Tool-Level Access Control
When the agent calls a tool (Lambda function), the tool receives:
- Authenticated User Context: Passed via
sessionAttributes
from Bedrock - Entity Information: Account/company details from user's
customData
- Scoped Permissions: Only data the authenticated user/entity can access
Example Tool Security Patterns:
Data Access Tool:
export async function handler(event: BedrockActionGroupLambdaEvent) {
// Extract authenticated context (set by platform, not LLM)
const userId = event.sessionAttributes.userId;
const accountId = event.sessionAttributes.accountId;
// Tool validates permissions and scopes data access
const results = await fetchDataForUserAndAccount(userId, accountId);
return results; // Only data this user/account can see
}
User Identity Tool:
export async function whoAmIHandler(event: BedrockActionGroupLambdaEvent) {
// Extract authenticated context (set by platform, not LLM)
const userId = event.sessionAttributes.userId;
const accountId = event.sessionAttributes.accountId;
const firstName = event.sessionAttributes.firstName;
const lastName = event.sessionAttributes.lastName;
// Return user identity information to the LLM
return {
message: `You are logged in as ${firstName} ${lastName} (ID: ${userId}) representing account ${accountId}`
};
// LLM can see this information, but cannot modify the underlying context
}
Data Protection Guarantees
Security by Default
Enterprise Security Out of the Box: Pika ships with enterprise-grade security features enabled by default, requiring no additional setup or configuration:
- Encryption Everywhere: All data encrypted at rest and in transit from day one
- Complete Audit Logging: Every action, access, and decision automatically logged with immutable timestamps
- Identity Isolation: User and organizational context separation enforced automatically
- Session Security: Cryptographic session isolation and secure cookie management built-in
- Access Controls: Secure-by-default access policies that deny access unless explicitly granted
No Security Configuration Required: Unlike platforms that require extensive security hardening, Pika operates securely from the moment of deployment. All enterprise security features are enabled by default, not optional add-ons.
Complete Organizational Data Isolation
Zero Cross-Contamination Architecture: Your organization's data is cryptographically isolated from all other organizations through multiple architectural layers:
- Identity Context Immutability: AI models cannot modify or influence organizational/user identity context
- Session-Level Isolation: Each session maintains strict organizational boundaries that cannot be breached
- Database-Level Segmentation: All data storage enforces organizational access boundaries at the infrastructure level
- Memory Isolation: No shared state or cross-organization data caching
AWS Enterprise Security Foundation
