Security & trust

Enterprise robotics security, built for live production lines.

Kilnara protects line telemetry, robot policies, digital twins, and deployment decisions with strong isolation, least-privilege access, auditable workflows, and safety gates before any model reaches hardware.

Principles

Trust starts with clear operating rules.

Our security model is designed for manufacturers who treat production data, robot behavior, and facility layouts as strategic IP.

01

Data ownership

Your line telemetry, CAD-derived assets, synthetic datasets, and trained policies remain yours. Kilnara does not sell or share customer production data.

02

Least privilege

Users, service accounts, and deployment agents receive only the access required for their assigned cells, environments, and approval workflows.

03

Defense in depth

Network segmentation, identity controls, encryption, audit trails, and human release gates overlap so a single control failure does not become a floor incident.

04

Safe by default

New policies are treated as untrusted until they pass simulation, safety, and human sign-off checks against limits agreed with your engineering team.

05

Customer-controlled deployment

Run Kilnara in the environment that matches your data classification, from managed SaaS to air-gapped infrastructure.

06

Auditable decisions

Policy lineage, validation results, approvals, rollback events, and access changes are retained for operational review and investigations.

Deployment options

Run Kilnara where your production data is allowed to live.

We support progressive deployment models so security teams can choose the right balance of control, operations burden, and connectivity.

environment choices
  • Managed SaaS — fastest start for non-sensitive pilots and remote collaboration.
  • Single-tenant VPC — isolated cloud runtime with customer-specific networking and access policy.
  • On-prem — keep training artifacts and telemetry inside your facility or private data center.
  • Air-gapped — roadmap-supported package for restricted production environments with offline updates.
Privacy

Your line telemetry stays yours.

Kilnara uses telemetry to calibrate your twin, evaluate drift, and improve policies for your deployment. Customer production data is logically separated and not used to train another customer’s systems without explicit written approval.

What we protect

  • Cell layouts, robot paths, fixtures, and CAD-derived geometry
  • Camera, sensor, PLC, and MES telemetry streams
  • Synthetic scenes, labels, trained policies, and validation reports
  • Operator actions, approvals, and rollback history
Identity

Access controls that map to plant responsibility.

Security administrators can align Kilnara access with teams, facilities, cells, and release authority.

SSO / SAML

Connect Kilnara to your identity provider so employees authenticate through existing enterprise policies.

SCIM provisioning

Automate user lifecycle actions and reduce stale access when engineers change roles or leave teams.

Role-based access

Separate viewers, simulation authors, deployment approvers, administrators, and support users.

MFA support

Enforce multi-factor authentication through your SSO provider or Kilnara-managed accounts where applicable.

Scoped service accounts

Limit agents to specific twins, cells, endpoints, and retention windows.

Approval separation

Require a human approver distinct from the policy author before a deployment can reach hardware.

Compliance

A transparent compliance roadmap.

We avoid implying completed certifications before the work is finished. Current status is shared during procurement reviews.

Robot safety

The Kilnara validation gate is more than application security.

Robotics security includes preventing unsafe robot behavior. Every candidate policy must pass safety and performance checks in the twin before release, then wait for human sign-off.

policy validation gate
  • Force and collision limits — simulated contacts, near misses, and forbidden zones are checked before deploy.
  • Human sign-off — designated engineers review validation evidence and approve cell-specific release.
  • Rollback-ready — prior validated policies remain available when production conditions change.
  • Release records — every validation result, approval, and deployment is traceable.
Infrastructure

Encryption and key handling for sensitive manufacturing assets.

Kilnara protects data in transit and at rest across application services, artifact stores, and deployment agents.

  • TLS in transit — APIs and browser sessions use encrypted transport.
  • Encryption at rest — customer artifacts and records are encrypted in supported deployment environments.
  • Key management — cloud KMS or customer-managed keys can be discussed for private deployments.
  • Environment separation — development, staging, and production resources are separated.
Monitoring

Audit logging for people, policies, and robots.

Operations and security teams can review who changed a twin, launched training, approved a policy, altered access, or rolled back a deployment.

Administrative events

User changes, SSO configuration, service account creation, and permission updates.

Policy lifecycle

Training run inputs, validation outcomes, approvals, deployments, and rollback records.

Operational signals

Integration health, agent connectivity, failed jobs, and anomalous deployment activity.

Responsible disclosure

Report a security concern.

If you believe you have found a vulnerability in Kilnara or a deployment agent, please contact our security team with reproduction details, affected endpoints, and potential impact.

Contact note

Email security@kilnara.com for vulnerability reports. We acknowledge good-faith reports, prioritize issues by risk, and coordinate remediation with affected customers.
