Cabier Global Assurance · Architecture
Embedded Assurance
Assurance that lives in a separate system will always be a description of the past. Embedded assurance sits where the action happens: in the application path, at the gateway, in the runtime, at the point a consequential decision is actually taken.
It can operate inside the system or beside it, depending on what the environment permits. The architecture assumes both.
Published as reference architecture. Integration surfaces, latency budgets and deployment topologies are set per engagement.
Integration surfaces
Inside the system where that is possible, beside it where it is not.
SDK
Assurance calls sit in the application path, so the decision boundary is where the action is.
API
For platforms that prefer an out-of-process assurance call with a recorded disposition.
Runtime
Observation, evaluation and intervention while the system is working rather than afterwards.
Model gateway
Which model, which version, which purpose, under what permission, with what record.
Agent gateway
Agent identity, delegation depth, envelope enforcement and interruption.
MCP and tool gateway
Tool inventory, tool authority and untrusted-content paths.
Transaction gateway
Value, counterparty, routing and jurisdiction checked at the decision boundary.
Identity gateway
Human, service and agent identity resolved as one chain rather than three systems.
Service mesh, cloud, Kubernetes, edge and device
The same assurance logic where the workload actually runs, including disconnected and sovereign environments.
Enterprise platform
Assurance beside the platform where inside it is not available or not wanted.
Where the intelligence actually runs
The question every institutional and sovereign buyer asks second, immediately after asking what it does.
- Compute may remain entirely inside the customer environment. Assurance remains independently governed by Cabier.
- It can operate on customer-controlled compute, sovereign infrastructure, private deployment, open-weight models, approved frontier models, or Cabier-controlled assurance intelligence.
- Routine decisions resolve locally and deterministically, so the common path does not require an external call at all.
- Where a decision does require specialised reasoning, the routing, the data crossing any boundary and the retention are all part of the assurance record.
The corpus and the assurance intelligence layer, and why neither depends on a single frontier model.
