Bidovate maintains an active compliance program aligned with the standards government contractors depend on. Our certifications are independently audited and continuously monitored.

Data Protection

Your Data, Fully Encrypted, Always

Bidovate employs defense-in-depth encryption across every layer of the platform.

Encryption at Rest: All customer data is encrypted using AES-256, the same standard used by U.S. federal agencies to protect classified information.
Encryption in Transit: Every connection to Bidovate is secured with TLS 1.3, ensuring data cannot be intercepted during transmission.
Encryption Key Management: Encryption keys are managed through a dedicated key management service with automatic rotation, strict access controls, and full audit trails. For on-premise deployments, customers can manage their own encryption keys.

No unencrypted customer data is ever stored or transmitted.

Access Control

Granular Control Over Who Sees What

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Define precisely which team members can view, edit, or manage solicitations, proposals, and pipeline data. Permissions are fully configurable by role and by project.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): MFA is enforced across all accounts. We support authenticator apps, hardware security keys, and SMS-based verification.
Single Sign-On (SSO/SAML): Integrate Bidovate with your existing identity provider, Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, or any SAML 2.0 provider, for seamless, centralized access management.
Session Management: Configurable session timeouts, automatic lockout after failed attempts, and the ability to revoke active sessions remotely.
IP Whitelisting: Restrict platform access to approved IP addresses or ranges, ensuring only authorized networks can connect.

AI & Data Privacy

AI That Respects Your Data Boundaries

Bidovate uses AI to help you find, analyze, and respond to solicitations faster. We take an uncompromising approach to how your data is handled within our AI systems.

Zero Model Training on Customer Data: Your solicitation data, proposal content, and documents are never used to train or fine-tune any AI model, period.
Isolated Processing: All AI inference happens in isolated, ephemeral environments. Your data is processed and discarded; it is never pooled with other customers' data.
No Data Sharing: Customer data is never shared with third-party AI providers, partners, or any external party.
Data Deletion on Request: You can request complete deletion of your data at any time. Deletion is permanent and verified.

On-Premise Deployment

Deploy Bidovate Behind Your Own Firewall

For organizations that require complete control over their data environment, Bidovate offers a full on-premise deployment option.

Self-Hosted Infrastructure: Run Bidovate entirely within your own data center or private cloud. No data leaves your environment.
Air-Gapped Environments: Bidovate supports fully air-gapped deployments for organizations operating in classified or restricted network environments.
Customer-Managed Encryption Keys: Maintain full ownership and control of all encryption keys. Bidovate never has access to your keys in an on-premise deployment.

No other GovCon platform offers on-premise deployment. Bidovate is the only government contracting platform that gives you the option to keep every byte of data within your own infrastructure.

Infrastructure

Built on U.S. Government-Grade Infrastructure

AWS GovCloud: Bidovate's cloud infrastructure runs on AWS GovCloud (or equivalent), purpose-built for sensitive government workloads and operated by U.S. persons on U.S. soil.
U.S. Data Residency: All customer data is stored and processed exclusively within the United States. No data is transferred or replicated outside U.S. borders.
Redundancy: Multi-availability-zone architecture ensures high availability and resilience against localized failures.
Backup: Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery. Backups are encrypted and stored in geographically separate U.S. regions.
Disaster Recovery: Documented disaster recovery plan with defined RPO and RTO targets. Regular DR drills are conducted and results are documented.

Audit & Monitoring

Complete Visibility Into Platform Activity

Comprehensive Audit Logs: Every user action, API call, configuration change, and data access event is logged with full detail, who, what, when, and where.
Real-Time Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of infrastructure, application, and network layers with automated alerting for anomalous activity.
Penetration Testing: Independent third-party penetration tests are conducted at least annually. Results and remediation actions are documented.
Vulnerability Scanning: Automated vulnerability scanning runs continuously across all platform components, with critical findings addressed within defined SLA windows.

Incident Response

Prepared, Transparent, Accountable

Defined SLA: Bidovate maintains a documented incident response plan with defined severity levels and response time SLAs. Critical incidents are acknowledged within 1 hour.
Communication Procedures: Affected customers are notified promptly via email and in-app notification. Status updates are provided at regular intervals throughout the incident lifecycle.
Post-Incident Review: Every security incident undergoes a thorough post-incident review. Root cause analysis and corrective actions are documented and shared with affected customers upon request.
