Assessment. Containment. Stewardship.

Cloister deploys governed, evidence-generating AI infrastructure in 4 weeks — then keeps it current as regulations shift. Here is how the process works.

2-4 weeks

Assessment

Map AI tools, workflows, and data flows to surface compliance risk before anyone else finds it.

Ongoing

Containment

Your team gets Cloister Chat - a governed AI interface inside your GovCloud account. Every prompt, response, and document is logged. Evidence builds automatically.

Monthly

Stewardship

Deliver monthly governance updates so your architecture stays current as rules evolve.

2-4 weeks

Assessment

We map every AI tool, workflow, and data flow across your organization. You get a complete picture of where AI is used, what data it touches, and where the compliance gaps are — before a prime, a DIBCAC assessor, or a diligence team finds them.

AI Usage Inventory

Complete catalog of AI tools and workflows across every team.

Data Flow Mapping

Diagram of what data moves through which AI tools, and where CUI exposure exists.

Gap Analysis

Risk assessment mapped to NIST 800-171 controls, with specific findings and remediation priorities.

Governance Architecture Plan

Blueprint for the containment environment — policies, tooling, and approval workflows your team will operate.

Ongoing

Containment

Powered by Cloister Chat

Your team gets Cloister Chat - a governed AI interface deployed inside your AWS GovCloud account. Every interaction is logged with full metadata. Documents can be uploaded and analyzed within the boundary. Evidence packages export on demand — for a prime's flowdown inquiry, a DIBCAC assessment, or a diligence team at exit.

Chat Interface

Familiar AI chat connected to Bedrock, running inside your VPC. Text prompts and document analysis.

Evidence Engine

Immutable logs with user, timestamp, prompt, response, model version. Encrypted with your KMS keys. Hash chain for tamper detection.

Governance Controls

Role-based access (User, Auditor, Admin), admin dashboard, NIST 800-171 control mapping.

Deployment Package

Infrastructure-as-code delivered into your GovCloud account. You own everything.

Monthly

Stewardship

Regulations shift. New AI tools emerge. Your governance architecture stays current. Cloister monitors the regulatory landscape and delivers monthly updates — so your team never falls behind.

Monthly Governance Reviews

Assessment of new regulatory guidance and its impact on your architecture.

Policy Updates

Revised documentation and controls as requirements evolve — including whatever DoD's task force lands on.

New Tool Evaluation

Assessment of emerging AI tools against your governance framework before adoption.

Scrutiny Preparation Support

Evidence packaging and readiness checks for whenever the question arrives — prime, DIBCAC, or diligence.

Team Training

Practical training for your team on operating safely within the governance architecture.

The rules can change. The record is yours either way.
