KVKK / GDPR / BDDK compliance — Use case
An API and AI platform built where audit, encryption, and access control are non-negotiable. Evidence packets for KVKK, GDPR, BDDK, PSD2, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001 — generated, not assembled.
Executives · Compliance · For executives
Compliance as a saved query. Not a six-week project.
Audit at the framework boundary, encryption at the persistence layer, three-tier access at the runtime — the regulator's checklist already lives inside the platform.

The problem
The problem
Compliance teams shouldn't be the last to find out a system isn't auditable.
Most platforms treat audit, encryption, and access as opt-in middleware. Compliance teams discover the gap in October, with November to fix it. Apinizer treats those controls as constitutional: they're enforced at the framework boundary, not by convention. The evidence packet auditors ask for ships out of the platform as a query, not a project.
Capabilities
Audit at the persistence layer
Every change — config, secret, grant, deploy, view — captured immutably. Bypass is rejected at the framework, not by code review.
Encrypted secret fields
Tokens, keys, and credentials encrypted before persistence; decrypted only at runtime. They never appear in lists, exports, or backups.
Three-tier access
Platform, Project, Environment scopes federated to your AD / LDAP / OIDC. Segregation of duties enforced by the runtime, not by memo.
Article 30 / record-of-processing
Personal-data flows joined to consent, retention, and access logs. GDPR Article 30 / KVKK envanteri queries return in seconds.
Sector-aligned controls
BDDK, PSD2, SAMA, ACPR, AYM — every regulator's emphasis maps to a control already in the platform. We share the mapping packet.
Continuous evidence
Quarterly evidence packs generated automatically. Auditor requests close the same business day instead of the same quarter.
Real-world examples
Banking
Scenario: Istanbul Tier-1 bank passes BDDK quarterly audit with a saved query
Outcome: What used to be a three-week reconciliation project becomes a query and an export. Auditors stop asking, 'who has access to X'.
Metric: 3 weeks → 1 day
Insurance
Scenario: Frankfurt insurer answers a GDPR Article 30 request in one afternoon
Outcome: Article 30 record of processing joins personal-data flows to consent, retention, and access logs. The DPO ships a packet by 17:00.
Banking
Scenario: Riyadh bank meets SAMA Cyber Security Framework controls 4.2 + 4.3
Outcome: Audit, encryption, and segregation-of-duties mapped to SAMA paragraphs in the evidence packet. The regulator's review closes early.
Healthcare
Scenario: Lyon hospital network ships HDS (Hébergement de Données de Santé) evidence
Outcome: Every PHI access logged; every retention window enforced. The HDS auditor signs off after one visit instead of three.
Government
Scenario: Rome ministry maps AgID-CAD controls to platform telemetry
Outcome: CAD (Codice dell'Amministrazione Digitale) controls map one-to-one to platform features. Audit posture documented in one page.
Telecom
Scenario: Madrid carrier satisfies ENS (Esquema Nacional de Seguridad) high-level requirements
Outcome: Audit retention, segregation of duties, and encryption-at-rest mapped. The ENS audit closes with no findings.
Energy
Scenario: Prague utility maps NIS2 essential-entity controls
Outcome: Incident reporting, supply-chain audit, and access controls — all already covered by Apinizer's existing model.
Banking
Scenario: Caspian-region bank meets AYM standards with the same controls used for KVKK
Outcome: Local AYM controls overlap heavily with KVKK. One platform, two regulators, one evidence pack.
