Kyūdō
Sovereign Deployment

The platform that proves your security posture should not require you to surrender control of it.

Kyūdō deploys inside your Azure tenant. Your compliance data never touches infrastructure you don’t control. Zero vendor data access — verified by architecture, not policy.

Deployment Architecture

Your infrastructure. Your boundary. Verified by deployment topology.

When your procurement team asks where compliance data lives, the answer is simple: in your Azure tenant, behind your network boundary, managed by your identity provider.

Access Boundaries

Who controls what. Verified by architecture, not policy.

Data access is governed by Azure RBAC, private endpoints, and managed identities — not vendor promises.

Operating Model

Full operational support — without ever touching your data.

Kyūdō's support model is designed around the same boundary the platform enforces. Diagnostic telemetry, not data access. Architecture that makes vendor overreach structurally impossible.

Azure Lighthouse Support

Support engineers access your environment through Azure Lighthouse delegated permissions. Every action is scoped, time-limited, and logged in your Azure Activity Log. No standing access. No credential sharing.

Actions auditable in your tenant

Zero-Downtime Updates

Blue/green deployment strategy ensures zero service interruption during platform updates. Traffic shifts only after automated health checks pass. Rollback in under 60 seconds if any check fails.

CVE Fast-Track

Critical security patches deployed within 48 hours of disclosure. Automated vulnerability scanning runs continuously. Customer-approved deployment windows respected for all non-critical updates.

Why Customer-Hosted

Vendor-hosted compliance requires trust. Customer-hosted compliance requires verification.

Every GRC vendor asks you to trust them with your most sensitive compliance data. Kyūdō asks you to verify — because the deployment runs in infrastructure you control.
