Regulated workloads
Evidence that the auditor accepts. Without the endpoint-management horror show.
The boxes Procurement and Compliance make you tick: SSO, SCIM, session recording, DLP watermarking, IP allowlisting, full audit logs. Already ticked. Centralized workstations mean the security story is the same whether the user is on a corporate Mac, a personal laptop, or a Chromebook.
The pain
- Endpoint-based logging is partial at best. The auditor wants a record of every workstation session (start, stop, who joined, what files moved) and you can't produce one if the data lives across 300 personal laptops.
- Proving a non-exfil event for a departed contractor with the access they had. The honest answer is usually "we hope so."
- Annual SOC 2 / HIPAA / ISO surveillance asking for evidence of session monitoring, access reviews, and provisioning controls. Each one is a quarter of an FTE if it's spread across endpoint tools.
- Data-residency requirements that the team "solves" by giving the EU contractor a US laptop and a VPN tunnel back to Frankfurt.
With Canvex
- Every workstation session is recordable end-to-end as evidence-grade replay (keystrokes, mouse, window state) with timestamps and the user identity attached.
- Dynamic per-session watermark on screen (user, time, IP) so screenshots and over-shoulder photos carry the user's identity into the leak.
- SAML / OIDC SSO + SCIM provisioning. When the user leaves the IdP, their workstation access leaves with them on the next push from your IdP. No quarterly access-review spreadsheet.
- Pick the region a workstation runs in. Data (including streamed pixels) never leaves the chosen region.
Recommended config
Most compliance-driven deployments
Enterprise platform tier ($99/mo) for session recording, DLP watermarking, IP allowlisting, SAML/OIDC SSO, SCIM provisioning, and the audit-log export surface. These are the controls the surveillance auditor and the renewal quote both want.
Compute tier follows the actual work: Standard for document review and admin, Performance or Power for analyst workloads (Bloomberg-style data tools, modeling, reporting pipelines). GPU only if the workload involves CAD, simulation, or ML inference on regulated data.
What's working for you under the hood
Session recordingEnterprise
End-to-end session capture, encoded to MP4 for playback. Timestamped, identity-attached, exportable as evidence. Storage tier-gated for retention.
DLP watermarkingEnterprise
Dynamic per-session watermark showing user identity, IP, and timestamp. Carries user attribution into any over-shoulder photo or screenshot.
IP allowlistingEnterprise
Restrict workstation access to specific IPs or CIDR blocks. Pair with corporate VPN or with the user's office to enforce location-bound access.
SAML/OIDC SSO + SCIMEnterprise
Identity sourced from your IdP. SCIM keeps users and groups in sync. Deprovisioning at the IdP propagates on the IdP's push cadence.
Tenant audit log + export
Every login, every workstation action, every admin change. Filterable, exportable as JSON or CSV. 90-day retention by default; longer on request.
Regional data residency
Pin a workstation to a specific region. Data, including the streamed pixels, never leaves it. Multi-region orgs route each user to the right region.
Endpoint-based controls work right up until the moment an auditor asks for evidence that they did. Centralized workstations invert the model: the security boundary lives at the platform, the evidence stream is generated where the work happens, and the user's device becomes a piece of glass that renders pixels. That's easier to attest to, easier to audit against, and easier to deprovision when a relationship ends.
