Security & Compliance
We build systems that meet your security and compliance requirements from the first version, and we can operate and support them after launch. Terminal Velocity is SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001 certified.
What this covers
Compliance planned from the start
We go through your compliance requirements with your legal and security teams at the start of each project and design the system around them. Past work in this area covers US government data rules, regional data storage and access control.
Personal data handling
Services that keep personal data isolated and stored in the right region. We built and still run one for a studio that has to meet US government data restrictions.
Access and authorization
Multi-layer authorization and entitlement checks for content and systems with strict access rules.
Government cloud
Architecture and migration work for regulated environments, including AWS GovCloud IL5.

Success stories from our clients
CFIUS-Compliant Player Identity Service
We built, operate, and support a PII isolation service enabling a foreign-owned game studio to comply with US government data restrictions.
Authorization-Gated Game Distribution System
We extended a game launcher to support premium content distribution with multi-layer authorization, enabling a studio's first paid game release.
AWS GovCloud Migration Under 7-Week Deadline
We migrated a simulation platform to AWS GovCloud IL5 in 7 weeks to maintain a Department of Defense contract, navigating security constraints and compressed timelines.
Frequently asked questions
We engineer the identity, access and audit systems that products need when they have to pass an outside review, whether that comes from a regulator, a government customer or a platform holder. The work covers data protection, data residency and government cloud requirements.
Yes. Terminal Velocity holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications. Both are independent audits of how we handle security and data, which matters when our engineers work inside your systems or build services that store your customers' information.
Yes. We design systems that keep personal data in the places the law requires. For a foreign-owned game studio, we built and now operate a player identity service that isolates personal data, so the studio meets US government restrictions under CFIUS.
CFIUS is the US committee that reviews foreign investment in American companies for national security risks. When it approves a deal, it can require the company to limit who can access US users' personal data. We build the technical controls that put those limits in place and keep them running.
Yes. We migrated a simulation platform to AWS GovCloud at Impact Level 5 in seven weeks, meeting the deadline the client needed to keep a US Department of Defense contract. We build to the standards government cloud environments set for sensitive data.
Yes. We can hand a system over to your team with full documentation, or we can operate and support it ourselves. The player identity service we built for a studio's CFIUS compliance is one we still run.
