TRUST ARCHITECTURE

Trust, built into every engagement.

Five things you can count on, from the first folder you connect to the last deliverable you share.

  • 01 · Non-custody

    You own the asset

    firmä takes a non-custodial role. Files stay in your Drive, and if you leave, you keep everything exactly as it is.

    • Your Drive · your files
  • 02 · Client experience

    An enterprise-grade image

    Look like a major firm with secure, managed data practices. Clients get a branded portal that shows only what you share: no more “oops, wrong file” moments.

    • Branded portal
    • Controlled access
  • 03 · IP and confidentiality

    NDA-ready security

    Confidentiality is your currency. Tag internal docs and frameworks as Never Share, so they can never reach a client by accident. firmä keeps the structure (metadata) apart from your content, so file contents are never stored on our servers.

    • Never Share
    • Structure, not bytes
  • 04 · Analytics

    See what clients open

    Track views and downloads across your portal. Every open and download is recorded in the audit log, deliverable by deliverable.

  • 05 · Permissions

    Ease of governance

    Grant access per deliverable, keep reviewers view-only, and revoke external access in one step. When an engagement ends, everything you explicitly shared with that client is revoked. Fewer zombie links, clearer IP boundaries.

TRANSPARENT FLOW

How firmä touches your data

Logic runs on our servers; files stay in your Drive. Here is how a request moves from your browser to your Drive, without firmä taking custody of your content.

  1. Browser ↔ firmä ↔ Drive

    TLS 1.3

    Encrypted in transit

    Every request between your browser, firmä and your Drive travels over HTTPS.

  2. At sign-in

    OIDC

    Standard sign-in

    Sign-in runs through a dedicated auth service on OpenID Connect, with a one-time email code or your Google account. No password to leak.

  3. In our metadata database

    AES-256

    Encrypted at rest

    Sensitive metadata (client and engagement names, contact details, comments and storage tokens) is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it’s stored.

  4. firmä ↔ your Drive

    OAuth 2.0

    Drive access you can revoke

    firmä reaches your Drive through OAuth 2.0 and keeps no copy of your files. You can revoke that access from your Google or Microsoft account at any time.
