Onboarding and offboarding
- Getting started
-
We support our B2B engagements through a simple and lightweight onboarding process. The service is designed to be intuitive, with minimal setup required and is quite basic in its use.
Users are provided with clear online documentation covering access, basic configuration and how to submit documents and images for analysis.
Most customers begin with a trial or pilot phase, allowing users to explore the service, validate outputs and ask questions before wider adoption. This is the most effective training.
During this period, we provide remote guidance and responsive support to help users understand results, confidence scores and how the service fits into existing workflows. W
here API integration is required, technical documentation and remote support are provided to assist setup and sandbox testing. Formal training is not mandatory due to the simplicity of the service, but optional remote walkthrough sessions can be delivered if required. This approach allows users to start quickly, gain confidence through hands on use and scale adoption at their own pace. - Service documentation

The API allows users to retrieve submitted files, metadata, results and confidence scores in standard machine readable formats for reuse or migration into other systems. Where required, AIXON can also support a managed export on contract exit, providing data securely within an agreed timeframe. No proprietary formats are used and there is no restriction on when data can be extracted during the contract.
- End-of-contract process
-
At the end of the contract, users can continue to access and extract their data up to the contract end date using the service interface or API. This includes all submitted documents, images, metadata, detection results and confidence scores in standard, non proprietary formats.
Data extraction and contract exit support are included within the price of the contract and do not incur additional cost.
Following confirmation that the contract has ended and data extraction is complete, AIXON will securely delete all customer data from live systems and backups within 7 days, in line with data protection and security obligations.
AIXON will provide confirmation of data deletion on request.

- Description of service interface
-
Guardian is accessed through a secure cloud based web interface and via API integration. The interface allows authorised users to upload documents and images, submit items for analysis, view detection results and confidence scores, and track processing status. Single or multiple images can be uploaded and "projects" created for combined images in context.
The interface is designed to be simple and task focused, supporting both investigative and operational users. Full customisable admin area. - Accessibility standards
- WCAG 2.2 AA
- Accessibility testing
-
Accessibility has been considered throughout the design of the service interface to support inclusive use.
The interface follows WCAG 2.2 AA principles, including clear navigation, consistent layouts, keyboard accessibility, appropriate colour contrast and readable text sizing.
Testing has been carried out using screen readers and keyboard only navigation to ensure key user journeys such as uploading files, reviewing results and managing cases can be completed without reliance on a mouse. Form fields, buttons and status messages are labelled clearly to support assistive technologies.
Feedback from users with accessibility needs has been incorporated to simplify workflows, reduce unnecessary steps and improve clarity of instructions and error messages.
Accessibility testing is reviewed as part of ongoing service improvement and updates are made where issues are identified to ensure continued compliance and usability. This will be included in our support agreement and during customer onboarding/trial use. - API
- Yes
- What users can and can't do using the API
-
Yes, through a secure REST based API designed for integration into public sector systems. The API allows users to set up the service by authenticating using secure credentials or systematically via API Key.
Once connected, users can submit documents and images for analysis, trigger detection requests, retrieve results and confidence scores, and associate outputs with their own reference data or workflows.
The API supports automated, high volume processing and is suitable for embedding within operational and investigative workflows. There is queuing logic in the API layer and a notification engine if required.
There are rate limitations to ensure service security and integrity and commercial protection in line with licence controls. Users cannot modify or retrain the underlying AI models, alter detection logic, or bypass validation controls.
Changes to core service behaviour, performance thresholds or security configurations are managed by AIXON through controlled change processes
API usage is subject to agreed rate limits, data size constraints and security policies to ensure stable performance for all users. Any changes that impact service scope, capacity or assurance levels must be agreed through contract change control. - API documentation

Scaling
- Independence of resources
-
AIXON ensures users are not affected by demand from other customers through a cloud based architecture designed for isolation and scalability. We use automatic Terraform services to scale appropriately across our Azure Infrastructure.
For B2B commercial licenced users, the service uses logically separated environments away from our B2C offering, which brings controlled resource allocation and rate limiting to prevent one customer’s usage impacting another. Processing capacity scales automatically based on demand, ensuring consistent performance during peak usage. Monitoring is in place to manage throughput and maintain service availability, and contractual limits are applied where required to protect overall service stability.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
-
We guarantee a service availability level of 99.9 percent measured on a monthly basis, excluding planned maintenance agreed in advance. Our AI Detection Service is hosted on Microsoft Azure and benefits from Azure’s resilient cloud infrastructure, including built in redundancy and high availability.
We augment the underlying Azure uptime commitment through application level monitoring, automated recovery and geo replicated service components to support service continuity in the event of infrastructure or regional issues.
The service is designed to remain available for operational use but is not positioned as a safety critical or life critical system. Availability is monitored continuously and reviewed as part of service management. If the guaranteed availability level is not met in a given month, affected customers are eligible for service credits, applied as a proportionate refund against the monthly service charge. The level of service credit is agreed within the contract and reflects the scale and duration of any availability breach. This approach provides a clear and fair mechanism for assurance while remaining proportionate to the nature of the service and public sector use cases. - Approach to resilience
-
Our service is designed with resilience as a core principle and aligns with the government’s cloud security principle for asset protection and resilience.
We host the service on Microsoft Azure, using cloud infrastructure that provides built in redundancy across compute, storage and networking.
The service is deployed across multiple availability zones, with geo replication in place to support continuity in the event of infrastructure or regional failure. This ensures that no single component failure results in a loss of service.
At an application level, we use automated monitoring, health checks and restart mechanisms to detect and recover from issues quickly. Change management is via CI/CD. Capacity scales dynamically to handle changes in demand without impacting availability for other users, and also resources segregated with an Enterprise Licence.
Data is protected through regular backups and replication, ensuring integrity and recoverability.
Resilience is monitored continuously, and incidents are managed through defined operational processes to restore service promptly. Planned maintenance is scheduled to minimise disruption and communicated in advance. This layered approach ensures the service remains available, secure and recoverable, while remaining proportionate to its role as a non safety critical public sector digital service - Outage reporting
- Customers receive outage and incident notifications by email, including updates on progress and resolution. Where required, service status information can be accessed programmatically through the API to support integration with customer monitoring or service management tools.

- Security governance approach
- Security responsibilities are clearly defined and overseen by senior management. We follow recognised best practice frameworks and secure by design principles across service development and operation. Our services are hosted on Microsoft Azure and adopt Azure security controls for physical security, access management, monitoring and resilience. We operate policies and processes covering access control, incident management, vulnerability management and change control. Security risks are reviewed regularly and controls are updated as the service evolves. We are working towards formal ISO27001 certification in 2026, and continuously improve our security governance based on risk, lessons learned and platform best practice.
- Information security policies and processes
-
We follow defined information security policies and processes to protect data, systems and services in line with public sector expectations. Our policies cover information security management, access control, data protection, incident management, vulnerability management, secure development and change control. Overall accountability for information security sits with senior management, with day to day responsibilities managed by designated technical leads. Information security risks are assessed regularly and controls are applied proportionately based on risk and service impact.
Our services are hosted on Microsoft Azure and adopt Azure security controls for physical security, identity and access management, monitoring, logging and resilience. Access to systems and data is restricted on a least privilege basis and reviewed regularly. Security incidents are managed through a defined reporting and escalation process, with issues investigated, resolved and lessons learned applied. Automated security testing supports vulnerability management and remediation. Compliance with policies is supported through onboarding, documented procedures and regular review. We are working towards achieving ISO IEC 27001 certification during 2026 as part of our security maturity roadmap. - Software Security Code of Practice

We operate an automated vulnerability management process focused on early detection and rapid response. Potential threats are identified through continuous vulnerability scanning in Azure, automated penetration testing and real time security notifications from our tooling. We receive threat intelligence from vendors, cloud security alerts, vulnerability databases and automated security services, allowing us to respond quickly to emerging risks. Vulnerabilities are assessed based on severity.
Critical and high risk issues are prioritised and patched rapidly through automated CI CD pipelines, often within hours or days. Lower risk issues are tracked and resolved through planned releases, ensuring ongoing service security and stability. - Protective monitoring type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
- Our protective monitoring is delivered using Microsoft Azure platform capabilities which comply with recognised standards.. We use continuous logging, automated alerts and security monitoring to identify potential compromises, unusual access patterns and service anomalies. When a potential incident is detected, it is triaged immediately, access can be restricted where required and logs are reviewed to assess impact. High risk incidents are prioritised and responded to within hours, with remediation actions deployed through controlled and automated processes to restore security and service integrity.
- Incident management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
