- 👬 Virtual Teams: Create teams within teams to 
- 🚠 Switch Teams: Switch between teams whilst still keeping data isolated.
- 🚓 RBAC: Use your SSO system to configure which features users have access to.

### Defence in Depth Security

- 👮 SAST: Static Application Security Testing - Our CI/CD pipeline runs SAST so we can identify risks before the code is built.
- 📢 Authorization RLS - We use Row Level Security in Postgres as another check to ensure data is not leaked between unauthorized users.
- 🚔 CSP: Our Content Security Policy is at the highest level and stops all manner of security threats.
- 🐳 Minimal containers: We build containers from Scratch whenever possible to limit supply chain attacks.
- ⏳ Non root containers: We run containers as non root to limit horizontal movement during an attack.
- 👮 Audit Trail: See who did what and when.
- ⏰ Postgres Roles: We run the minimum level of permissions for our postgres connections.
- 📣 SIEM integration: Integrate with your SIEM system for threat detection and investigation.
- ⌛ Resistant to timing attacks (api keys): Coming soon.
- 📭 SSO: We didn't build our own authentication but use industry leading and secure open source IAM systems.

### Observability and Reporting

- 📈 Observability API: Compatible with Prometheus for measuring load and usage.
- 🤖 Dashboards: Create dashboards with Grafana for an overview of your whole system.
- 📚 Monitor Chats: All questions and
