AI & DATA ON DISCONNECTED NETWORKS

AI & Data on Air-Gapped

Run the complete platform — AI agents, analytics, and your data — on fully disconnected networks, with no internet and no external dependencies. Sovereignty in its strictest form.

No Internet Required

The complete platform runs with no external network dependencies — fully functional on disconnected networks.

Open-Weight Models On-Prem

Serve open-weight models locally with vLLM, so high-performance open models run without any external API.

Sovereign by Construction

Data, models, and workloads never leave your perimeter — sovereignty in its strictest form.

Definition

Air-gapped AI & data means running the entire platform — models, agents, ontology, and analytics — inside a network that is physically or logically isolated from the public internet. With no external API or cloud dependency, the most sensitive workloads run entirely within your own disconnected environment.

Some data can never leave the building. For defence, intelligence, critical national infrastructure, and classified programmes, connectivity itself is the risk. Scrydon runs fully air-gapped: the same AI OS, ontology, and insights you would run in the cloud, operating on disconnected networks with no outbound connection required.

The AI OS only works if it can be trusted. Every layer of the platform rests on a zero-trust infrastructure and identity foundation that operates consistently from fully air-gapped on-premises deployments through to hyperscale cloud environments. Sovereignty is not a feature added on top — it is the condition under which everything else operates.

  • Zero-trust architecture: Continuous verification for every request, every user, and every workload — no implicit trust, even inside the perimeter.
  • Federated identity: Seamless integration with your existing IdP (SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC) for unified, policy-enforced access control.
  • Air-gapped deployment: Run the complete platform with no external network dependencies — ideal for defence, critical national infrastructure, and classified workloads.
  • Confidential computing: Hardware-level encryption of data in use via AMD SEV-SNP and Intel SGX, protecting workloads even from infrastructure administrators.

Deployment Options: From Air-gapped to Cloud

DISCONNECTED BY DESIGN

The full platform, with the cable unplugged

Air-gapped deployment runs every layer of the platform inside an isolated environment. There is no dependency on outside services: models are hosted locally, updates arrive through controlled media, and every component operates offline.

  • Fully offlineNo outbound internet connection — built for classified and highly sensitive workloads.

  • Local model servingOpen-weight models served on-premises with vLLM; no external inference API.

  • Controlled updatesSoftware and model updates delivered through your approved, audited channels.

  • Same capabilitiesThe same AI OS, ontology, agents, and insights as a connected deployment.

WHY AIR-GAPPED

When connectivity is the threat

For defence, intelligence, and critical infrastructure, an internet connection is both an attack surface and a sovereignty risk. Air-gapped deployment removes it entirely, so the most sensitive organisations get modern AI and analytics without ever exposing data to an outside network.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is air-gapped AI?+
Air-gapped AI runs the entire AI and data platform on a network isolated from the public internet. Models, agents, the ontology, and analytics all operate locally, with no external API or cloud dependency, so sensitive data never leaves your disconnected environment.
Can the platform really run with no internet connection?+
Yes. The complete platform is designed to run fully offline on disconnected networks, with open-weight models served locally via vLLM and no outbound connection required — ideal for defence, intelligence, and critical national infrastructure.
How are updates handled on an air-gapped network?+
Software and model updates are delivered through your own controlled, audited channels — for example approved removable media or a data diode — so the environment stays current without ever connecting to an external network.
Do air-gapped deployments lose any capabilities?+
No. You get the same AI OS, ontology, agents, and insights as a connected deployment. Because the platform is model-agnostic and runs open-weight models on-premises, high-performance open models work without external services.
Which organisations need air-gapped AI?+
Defence and intelligence agencies, classified programmes, and critical national infrastructure operators — anywhere data is too sensitive to expose to any outside network.
