Security & Privacy Summary

High-level posture for procurement workflows. Public intake remains non-confidential; secure sharing (if required) is established after kickoff under executed terms.

Public boundary: do not submit secrets, credentials, private keys, customer content, or regulated personal data on public pages/forms. If policy requires NDA before any detail-sharing, request it via procurement and include RID.

Principles (stable positions)

Designed to reduce ambiguity in early-stage procurement/security review.

1) Data minimisation by default

Engagements are scoped to request the minimum information necessary to produce the agreed artefacts and decisions.

  • Public intake stays high-level and non-confidential.
  • Sensitive context is gated behind executed terms when required.
  • Artefacts focus on governance, controls, and evidence discipline rather than data extraction.

2) Public boundary (non-confidential)

Public pages are designed for routing and procurement readiness—not for sharing secrets.

  • Not accepted via public channels: passwords, API keys, private keys, tenant identifiers, raw logs containing sensitive data, customer content, regulated personal data.
  • Accepted: organisation name, role, timelines, package selection, and high-level constraints.

3) Secure sharing (post-kickoff, if required)

If an engagement requires sensitive information to deliver, secure sharing options are confirmed after kickoff and governed by executed terms.

  • Access is scoped and time-bound to what is required for delivery.
  • Least-privilege patterns are preferred (read-only where feasible).
  • Secure transfer method is selected based on buyer policy and the engagement scope.
Default posture
Non-confidential routing + governance artefacts + minimal data.
Escalation posture
NDA/SOW gates + scoped secure sharing only when required.

Data boundary map (high-level)

Clear separation between public routing vs. engagement delivery.

Public routing layer

  • Purpose: intake, routing, procurement readiness, status tracking.
  • Inputs: high-level metadata only (no secrets, no regulated personal data).
  • Tracking: RID continuity for procurement/security threads.

Engagement delivery layer (post-kickoff)

  • Purpose: deliver scoped artefacts (memo, evidence index, action plans) and acceptance checks.
  • Sensitive data (if any): handled only when required, via secure sharing method aligned to buyer policy.
  • Scope control: defined in writing; changes require explicit approval.
Does Noetfield need admin access?
Not by default. Engagements are designed to be evidence-first and minimally invasive. If access is required for a specific scope, the access model is defined in writing and aligned to least privilege.
Can vendor security questionnaires be completed?
Yes. Send the questionnaire to procurement@noetfield.com with the RID. A concise response pack is returned aligned to the engagement scope and the requested SKU.

Security/privacy review routing

Use role-appropriate inboxes; include RID in the subject.
