Security & Compliance

Your data never leaves your building.

Mi Assist deploys entirely on your servers. No cloud. No API calls. No exposure.

ABA Rule 1.6 Compliance

Built for the duty of competence and confidentiality.

ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires attorneys to make reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to client information. On-premise AI eliminates the largest attack surface: the cloud.

No Cloud Transmission

Queries and responses never leave your local network. Zero data sent to external servers.

No Third-Party Access

No vendor, cloud provider, or API service can access your firm's data. Ever.

Full Data Sovereignty

You own the hardware. You own the data. You control who has access and when.

Audit Trail on Your Servers

Every query is logged locally. Full audit capability without exposing data externally.

Architecture

Four layers. All local.

Local LLM

Ollama (Llama 3.2 / Mistral)

Open-source language models running entirely on your hardware. No API calls, no tokens sent to OpenAI.

Local Vector DB

ChromaDB / Qdrant

Your documents are embedded and indexed locally. Semantic search without any cloud dependency.

Local Web UI

LAN-Only Interface

Staff access the search interface through your office network. No public-facing endpoints.

Air-Gapped Operation

No Internet Required

After initial deployment, the system operates fully offline. Disconnect the ethernet if you want.

Cloud AI Risks

Why cloud AI is a liability for law firms.

Data Subpoena Risk

Cloud-stored data can be subpoenaed from the vendor. Your case files become discoverable through a third party.

Privilege Waiver

Sending privileged communications through cloud AI may constitute a waiver of attorney-client privilege.

Third-Party Data Processing

Cloud AI providers process your queries on their infrastructure. Their employees, their security, their rules.

No Audit Control

You cannot audit what happens to your data once it reaches a cloud provider's servers.
