Built for the environments
where data risk is real

LakeX Sovereign DataVault is designed for regulated industries where data archival, governance, and security are non-negotiable. Each solution is grounded in the actual capabilities of the platform — not product marketing fiction.

Solution 01

Archive 10 years of core banking data. Query it in 180ms.

Core banking systems accumulate decades of transaction, loan, customer, and risk data. Legacy cold-storage approaches make that data inaccessible — requiring days of retrieval effort for regulatory queries. Sovereign DataVault changes the equation: archive everything intelligently, keep it fully queryable, and enforce every security and compliance control automatically.

Common Challenges

Regulatory mandates require 7–15 year data retention — but production databases can't carry that load
Audit queries on archived data take hours or days with traditional cold storage
PAN, Aadhaar, NIC data must be encrypted at field level — archive systems rarely support this
GDPR, PDPA, and local banking regulations require provable erasure across all copies
Air-gap or data localisation requirements prohibit cloud egress of any customer data

How Sovereign DataVault Solves It

Oracle / Db2 / SQL Server connectors for core banking systems
Sort Advisor + Parquet pruning → millisecond regulatory query response
FPE-FF31 encrypts PAN/Aadhaar in Parquet — format preserved for downstream
PKCS#11 HSM integration (Thales Luna / Entrust nShield) for FIPS 140-2/3
GDPR DSAR with 3-phase automated search and audit-trail erasure
100% on-premises — no customer data ever leaves the bank's perimeter
Tamper-evident audit chain — admissible evidence for regulatory examination

Solution 02

Policy, claims, and actuary data — archived, governed, and AI-accessible

Insurance organisations maintain decades of policy, claims, actuarial, and correspondence data under strict regulatory retention requirements. Sovereign DataVault gives insurers a unified archive that keeps structured policy data and unstructured documents — contracts, assessments, correspondence — under one governed, AI-queryable roof.

PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL connectors for policy management systems
SharePoint / SFTP connectors for policy documents, claims files, assessments
PDF, DOCX, XLSX text extraction and NER for claims data
RAG query: "Summarise all third-party liability claims over €500K in 2021"
GDPR DSAR for policyholders exercising right of erasure
Legal holds for litigation-linked claims files
Solvency II retention compliance with decommission audit trail

📋 Policy Archive

Archive historical policy records from core systems. Sort by EFFECTIVE_DATE for fast period queries during audits.

📁 Claims Documents

Ingest claims files, assessor reports, and correspondence from NFS and SharePoint. Searchable via RAG.

🔐 PII Protection

FPE encrypts policyholder IDs. NER flags personal data in documents. DSAR handles subject access requests.

⚖️ Legal Holds

Litigation holds prevent destruction of claims files under investigation. Released holds are audit-logged.

📊 Actuarial Queries

Actuaries query 20-year loss history in natural language — Sovereign DataVault generates and executes SQL via Trino.

🛡️ SIEM Events

Every access to sensitive claims or policyholder data forwarded to SIEM in real time (CEF or JSON).

Solution 03

Patient data — archived with absolute privacy, queryable for clinical insight

Healthcare organisations face uniquely stringent data residency requirements. Patient records, clinical notes, imaging metadata, and lab results must be retained for decades under HIPAA, GDPR Health provisions, and local healthcare regulations — while remaining accessible for clinical research, audit, and patient access requests. Sovereign DataVault handles all of this within your on-premises environment.

Archive patient records from Oracle, PostgreSQL, or MSSQL HIS/EMR databases
Ingest clinical notes (PDF, DOCX) and HL7 / FHIR documents via unstructured pipeline
NER extracts diagnoses, medications, and patient identifiers at ingest
AES-256-GCM or HSM encryption for all PHI at rest
GDPR / HIPAA patient access requests via DSAR module
Air-gap capable — clinical data never leaves the hospital network
Role-based masking — identifiers masked for research, visible for clinical audit

🏥 Air-Gap Patient Data Architecture

Clinical data that cannot leave the hospital network is handled entirely within the on-premises Sovereign DataVault deployment. Local Ollama models provide AI query capability without any cloud API call.

HIS/EMR → Stratum-S (structured archive)
Clinical notes / PACS metadata → Stratum-US (unstructured)
Ollama (local) for AI query — no external LLM API
PKI-based mutual TLS for all intra-platform communication
Data locality100% on-premises, air-gap capable
ComplianceHIPAA, GDPR Art. 9, local regulations
Research accessPseudonymised via masking engine
Retention30-year patient record retention ready
Solution 04

The compliance toolset your team never had — and desperately needs

Compliance officers, legal teams, and DPOs spend enormous effort on manual data discovery, DSAR fulfilment, and regulatory reporting. Sovereign DataVault gives these teams purpose-built tools — DSAR workflows, data lineage maps, business glossary, legal holds, and a read-only audit trail — without requiring IT involvement for routine operations.

DSAR module — compliance officers operate independently of IT
Data flow diagram — visual lineage from source to archive
Business glossary with classification taxonomy
Audit Viewer role — read-only access to full audit trail
Hash chain verification — prove audit trail integrity in court
Privacy requests portal with SLA tracking
Pending approvals workflow for data access requests
PQC hybrid encryption — prepares for quantum-era regulatory mandates

Solution 05

Production-quality test data. Instantly. Safely. Automatically.

Engineering teams that test against stale or synthetic data ship more bugs. But giving developers access to production data creates compliance risk. Sovereign DataVault's TDM module bridges this gap — provisioning masked, referentially-intact copies of production archives to dev and staging environments on demand, with full CI/CD integration.

Automatically resolve FK chains — no dangling references
Masking modes: FPE, PARTIAL, REGEX, FULL, RANDOM, NULL
CI/CD API keys — trigger provisioning from GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI
Schema drift detection before restore — no broken migrations
Seed SQL files for deterministic initial data state per environment
Row count + size estimation before committing provisioning
CDC bridge sources for near-real-time test data refresh
