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...
