Nia · Non‑persistent Infrastructure Architecture

NiaShield

Allows AI to happen in regulated markets.

NiaShield runs frontier models inside your own Azure tenant — in volatile memory, against a binary-locked roster of U.S. providers. No keys held. No logs kept. No prompts seen. What is never written down cannot be seized, leaked, or subpoenaed. Every session closes with a Certificate of Incineration — a signed receipt your auditor verifies without asking us anything.

Two products, one architecture

Every AI deployment splits into two kinds of traffic — people and applications. Each gets its own zero-persistence product, sharing the same SDIP-6 protocol and the same signed receipt.

NiaShield

The workspace where employees in regulated organizations use frontier models at full strength — inside your own Azure subscription, in volatile memory, with a destruction receipt on every session.

Gateway

A proxy your services call instead of calling AI providers directly. Machine traffic runs per-call and stateless; sessions that need context are sealed and bounded, with a deadline that cannot be extended.

The name

“Nia” is the architecture: Non‑persistent Infrastructure Architecture

NiaShield is named for what it is built on — Nia: Non‑persistent Infrastructure Architecture. Infrastructure engineered so that nothing about a session outlives the session: no stored prompts, no retained context, no logs waiting to be discovered.

What cannot persist cannot be breached, leaked, or subpoenaed. The shield is not a wall around stored data — it is the engineered absence of stored data, proven at the close of every session by the Certificate of Incineration.

Built to GSAR 552.239-7001

In 2025 the GSA issued the Basic Safeguarding of Artificial Intelligence Systems clause — a list of what an AI system must not do. NiaShield answers each requirement as an architectural property, not a policy promise.

(c)(1)Information safeguardingStops: covered data leaving the boundary

In-tenant execution. The control plane runs natively inside your own Azure subscription — Azure Gov included. Prompts and responses never reach Heaviside AI infrastructure; we operate no servers in the data path, so there is no boundary to cross.

(c)(2)No unauthorized retentionStops: prompts & logs that outlive the session

Volatile-only processing. Sessions run exclusively in RAM. On termination, SDIP-6 overwrites session buffers in six passes before memory is reclaimed. Non-retention is the default state, not a cleanup step.

(c)(3)Auditable dispositionStops: “trust us, it’s deleted”

Certificate of Incineration. Every session closes with a SHA-256 signed receipt attesting to start, termination, and sanitization — a record an auditor or a court can verify without asking us anything.

(d)Subcontractor flow-downStops: risk leaking to the vendor underneath

Zero-trust operator posture. Heaviside AI holds no customer keys, no customer data, no session content. With no operator data path beneath you, there is nothing to flow down — we cannot be subpoenaed for what we structurally do not possess.
