SOC 2 audit prep takes 180 hours.
60% is proving "who approved what."

63% of security incidents trace to config drift
from a known-good state.

The problem isn't missing policies. It's proving you enforced them.

Why this keeps happening

  • AI generates code that looks correct but violates your internal policies
  • Staff engineer's "best practices" wiki is ignored by new hires
  • "Who approved this exception?" → dig through Slack for 3 hours

Your security team writes policies. Nobody can prove they're followed.

Aphoria

Code-level truth linting. Claims, not rules.

Validate code against authoritative sources with cryptographic provenance.

Every policy has a source

Aphoria stores authoritative claims with provenance, not regex patterns.

  • Cryptographic attribution: Ed25519-signed Trust Packs trace every policy to an approver
  • Sub-second scanning: <100ms pre-commit, <1s full scan. Developers won't disable it.
  • AI guardrails: Catch InsecureSkipVerify = true before the PR

What this enables

Policy Governance

Security team publishes once. 400 engineers inherit instantly.

Drift Detection

"TLS config changed from 1.3 to 1.2" - caught before production.

Compliance Export

SOC 2 evidence in 15 minutes, not 3 days.

Every exception tracked with reason and timestamp.

Here's what it looks like

Terminal:

$ aphoria scan

BLOCK code://go/auth/tls/cert_verification
         Your code: TLS certificate verification is disabled (main.go:12)
         Regulatory: Boolean(true) (Tier 0)
         Action: Fix or acknowledge with: aphoria ack <path> --reason "..."

I'm going to run this exact command live...
