Platform Governance

Power Demands Accountability

The same capabilities that make Argus effective could be dangerous in the wrong hands. That's why we built governance into the foundation, not as an afterthought, but as a core design principle. Every capability comes with controls. Every access leaves a trail. Every decision can be reviewed.

Access Control

The Right Intelligence to the Right People

Traditional systems force a binary choice: either everyone sees everything, or nobody can share. Argus provides granular control that matches how investigations actually work.

Tag-Based Information Assignment

Investigators receive only intelligence relevant to their assigned mission domains.

  • Mission-specific filtering based on assigned tags
  • Automatic relevance scoring for incoming intelligence
  • Dynamic tag inheritance as assignments change
  • Cross-case intelligence routing to relevant personnel

Tiered Data Access

Security classifications enforced at the data level, not just the application level.

  • Clearance-based visibility at data element level
  • Need-to-know enforcement independent of roles
  • Time-limited access grants for temporary assignments
  • Compartmentalized operations support

Exclusion Lists

Protect individuals from profiling when legally or operationally appropriate.

  • Privacy protection compliance for protected individuals
  • Operational security support for confidential informants
  • Legal restriction enforcement for court orders
  • Complete audit trail for all exclusion decisions

Dynamic Permission Adjustment

Real-time access modifications for task forces and temporary assignments.

  • No IT ticket delays for routine permission changes
  • Time-bounded permissions with automatic expiration
  • Multi-agency coordination support for task forces
  • Automatic access cleanup when assignments end

Data Quality

Trust Every Data Point

Intelligence is only valuable if it's accurate. A single piece of bad data can send investigations in wrong directions. Argus provides systematic data quality controls.

Data Correction & Validation

Flag and correct inaccurate data before it compounds into investigative errors.

Source Attribution

Every fact traces to its origin for reliability assessment and legal documentation.

  • Complete provenance tracking for all data
  • Source reliability scoring based on history
  • Chain of evidence support for legal proceedings
  • Automatic citation generation for reports

Entity Resolution

Automatically identify and consolidate duplicate entities across data sources.

  • Fuzzy matching algorithms for name variations
  • Confidence scoring for potential matches
  • Manual review queue for uncertain matches
  • Merge audit trails documenting decisions

Continuous Quality Monitoring

Automated detection of data anomalies and quality degradation.

  • Real-time anomaly detection and alerts
  • Quality trend dashboards for administrators
  • Automated remediation for common issues
  • Root cause analysis for systemic problems
