What DeployReady Is

DeployReady is a SaaS platform built by Capstone Horizon LLC that helps small businesses and government contractors analyze federal solicitations and generate compliant proposal drafts. Customers upload publicly available solicitations (from SAM.gov or similar sources), maintain a company profile, and receive AI-assisted proposal outputs grounded in their actual capabilities.

Our security philosophy: FCI-adjacent by design. DeployReady is not a federal information system and is not designed to process Federal Contract Information (FCI), Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), or any other restricted government data. We built the product this way on purpose. Our Terms of Service prohibit uploading restricted data, and our product posture reinforces that boundary. We voluntarily implement the 15 baseline security controls from FAR 52.204-21 because they represent a sound commercial baseline, not because we are required to.

Architecture at a Glance

Hosting

DeployReady runs on Railway, which hosts the application on AWS infrastructure in the us-east-1 region (Northern Virginia). All customer data remains in the United States.

Database

Railway Postgres with AES-256 encryption at rest (Railway default). Daily automated snapshots with 7-day retention. All database traffic is encrypted in transit.

Tenant Isolation

Every data read and write in the application binds to the requesting tenant's ID derived from the server-side session. This app-layer enforcement runs on every query. Additionally, Postgres Row-Level Security (RLS) policies are applied at database startup on 19 tenant-scoped tables, including solicitations, proposals, company profiles, file vault, credentials, and audit logs. This gives us defense-in-depth: even a misconfigured query cannot return another tenant's records.

Authentication

Users authenticate with email and password. Passwords are hashed using scrypt (N=16384, 64-byte derived key, random per-user salt) and compared using constant-time comparison. Brute-force protection limits login attempts to 5 per IP+email combination per 15-minute window. Sessions are server-side and persisted to the database, with an in-memory L1 cache per request. Multi-factor authentication for administrative accounts is on the roadmap for Q3 2026.

TLS

All ingress routes through Railway's HTTPS termination (TLS 1.2 minimum). The application itself rejects any non-HTTPS request in production and sends HSTS headers on every response. There is no unencrypted HTTP path to the application.

FAR 52.204-21 Compliance Summary

We voluntarily implement all 15 basic safeguarding controls from FAR 52.204-21. Our current status:

CategoryCountNotes
Fully implemented (DONE, incl. DONE INHERITED)6Access control, authentication, boundary protection, subnetwork isolation
Partially implemented (PARTIAL)6Active remediation with Q2 2026 to Q1 2027 targets. Largest remaining gap is real-time file-upload malware scanning.
Inherited from Railway / AWS (N/A)3Physical security controls, no Capstone-owned infrastructure

The full self-attestation with evidence pointers for each of the 15 controls is available in our FAR 52.204-21 Self-Attestation. A one-page scorecard suitable for sharing with procurement and legal counsel is also available on request.

Data You Control

As a DeployReady customer, you own everything you bring in and everything the product generates for you:

  • Your company profile (capabilities, past performance, personnel, certifications)
  • Solicitations you upload or import
  • Generated proposal drafts
  • Files stored in the vault

Capstone Horizon does not claim ownership of your content. You can request deletion of your data at any time, and we will process it within 30 days. See our Data Handling Policy for retention schedules and deletion procedures.

Scope Boundaries: What We Do Not Process

DeployReady is not designed or authorized to hold the following data categories:

  • Federal Contract Information (FCI) as defined at FAR 4.1901
  • Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as defined at 32 CFR 2002.4
  • Classified National Security Information at any classification level
  • ITAR-controlled technical data or EAR-controlled export-controlled data
  • Protected Health Information (PHI) under HIPAA
  • Any information you are contractually obligated to protect under DFARS 252.204-7012 or equivalent

These are defined as Prohibited Data in our Terms of Service. Uploading Prohibited Data violates our Terms and may result in immediate suspension of your account. DeployReady is appropriate for analyzing publicly available solicitations (such as those from SAM.gov) and generating proposal drafts from your company's own, non-restricted capability data.

AI Safety and Anti-Fabrication

Government proposals carry legal risk. A proposal that invents personnel, past performance, or certifications can expose a contractor to False Claims Act liability. DeployReady's proposal engine is built around a firm no-fabrication rule set that:

  • Treats your company profile as the sole authoritative source of facts
  • Prohibits invented personnel, past performance, clearances, language fluency, and quantitative claims
  • Restricts compliance matrix vocabulary to three defined labels
  • Defaults to "will recruit" framing when a capability gap is detected

Full rule set, rationale, and technical implementation in our AI Safety and Anti-Fabrication document.

Subprocessors

DeployReady uses a small set of third-party vendors to deliver the service. We only engage subprocessors in the United States.
