Vault-OS runs frontier-class large language models entirely on your own hardware — cryptographically bound to it, with no network egress path to exploit. Built for organizations where sending sensitive data to someone else's cloud was never an option.

Architecture Definition // Vault-OS

Zero-Cloud Bare Metal Infrastructure. Physical AI Sovereignty.

The Compromised Paradigm

Cloud-dependent AI architectures force mission-critical data to traverse inherently vulnerable third-party APIs. They expose proprietary IP, violate international data transfer laws, and rely on multi-tenant infrastructure susceptible to Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs).

The Ground Truth (Vault-OS)

A strictly air-gapped, zero-cloud OS that binds cryptographically to your bare-metal silicon. Zero telemetry. Zero outbound API calls. It executes heavy inference directly on local VRAM, keeping cognition and data local behind your own firewall.

Integration Protocol // API Layer

Hardware-Bound API Access.
Local Systems Integration.

Vault-OS exposes a completely localized, OpenAI-compatible API architecture bound strictly to your internal network. Defense contractors and enterprise engineering teams can wire it into their existing C4ISR, data-fusion, and SIEM tooling over standard local network protocols, without ever breaking the physical air-gap.

Vault-UI // Session Active
Memory Wipe Protocol ArmedZustand State: Volatile

Ephemeral Cognitive Terminal.

The Vault-UI is designed under the assumption of continuous physical threat. Every cognitive session is intrinsically ephemeral.

  • Hardware-Routed VRAM Access

    A strict 9-Tier RBAC system ensures users only have hardware-level access to the exact LLM weights and VRAM partition their clearance level dictates.

  • Zustand Memory Wipe

    Browser state is violently eradicated upon tab close. No local storage, no cookies, no cache. The session ceases to exist the millisecond the connection drops.

  • Strict Incognito Operations

    Chat histories are not retained on disk unless explicitly committed via cryptographically signed database insertions. Default stance: absolute amnesia.

Regulatory Absolutism.

Compliance is not an afterthought; it is our fundamental architectural premise. Vault-OS is engineered to hold up under scrutiny in environments where legal or regulatory failures are fatal.

SECURE_PROTOCOL_1

PIPL / CSL / DSL Compliance

Strong technical defensibility against cross-border data transfer violations. By executing heavy inference on localized bare-metal servers with no network egress path, cross-border data exfiltration is architecturally eliminated, not just policy-restricted.

SECURE_PROTOCOL_2

CMMC 2.0 (Level 3)

Architected to satisfy Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) mitigation requirements for Defense Industrial Base (DIB) contractors. Complete network air-gap ensures Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) remains isolated. Formal CMMC certification still requires your own C3PAO assessment.

SECURE_PROTOCOL_3

GDPR / CCPA Sovereignty

Eliminates third-party subprocessor liabilities. Eradicates the need for Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with cloud AI vendors, as PII never egresses from your sovereign infrastructure.

SECURE_PROTOCOL_4

NIST SP 800-88 Sanitization

Integrates 'The Burn Protocol'—a cryptographic mechanism for forensic data destruction that aggressively overwrites vector databases and volatile memory to meet strict NIST Media Sanitization guidelines.

What Vault-OS Is

Vault-OS by IronGap Technologies is an air-gapped, on-premises AI server appliance and offline LLM software platform. It runs large language models (Llama 3, Mixtral, Qwen, and other vLLM/Ollama-compatible open weights) entirely on customer-owned local hardware, with no outbound API calls and no cloud dependency. A local retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline uses PostgreSQL with pgvector and HNSW indexing for on-premises vector search over ingested documents.

The license is cryptographically bound to the physical server via TPM 2.0 hardware attestation (with a fallback hardware-signature mode using motherboard UUID, MAC address, and CPU serial), so the software will not run on a different machine than the one it was licensed to. Two deployment models are available: a Bring-Your-Own-Hardware (BYOH) software license for customer-procured servers, and a Turnkey Appliance Enclave where IronGap procures, assembles, and ships a pre-configured GPU server node. Full pricing structure: https://iron-gap.com/pricing. Full technical architecture: https://iron-gap.com/whitepaper.

Target use cases: defense and intelligence organizations processing classified or export-controlled data, financial firms protecting proprietary trading models and order flow, biotech and healthcare organizations analyzing genomic or patient data under HIPAA/GDPR data-handling requirements, and any enterprise or government entity subject to data-residency or cross-border transfer restrictions that rule out public cloud AI APIs.

IronGap Technologies is an independent, founder-led company. Vault-OS is designed, built, and maintained by M.
