### Multi-Tenant Isolation
|
||||
- **Fail-Closed Strategy (Feb 2026)**: The API enforces a strict "Fail-Closed" mindset. If an authentication context or account ID is missing, the system defaults to a blocking filter (e.g., `account_id IS NULL`). It no longer allows "Fail-Open" behavior where missing context returns all records.
|
||||
- **IDAA Privacy Baseline**: Based on the International Drunk Doctors Anonymous requirement, the system defaults to **Maximum Isolation**. No object (Events, Files, Posts, Meetings) is public by default. Every object requires an `x-account-id` context, with the sole exception of `site_domain` used for bootstrapping.
|
||||
- **Forced Account Filtering**: For all non-super users, the API automatically injects an `account_id` filter into every list and search query. This is enforced at the SQL level via `apply_forced_account_filter`.
|
||||
- **Detailed 403 Feedback**: Security failures now return descriptive error messages (e.g., "API Key expired", "Account context required") to assist developers in debugging header/context issues while maintaining strict isolation.
|
||||
- **Post-Retrieval Verification**: Single object retrievals (`GET`), updates (`PATCH`), and deletions (`DELETE`) include a secondary ownership check (`check_account_access`). If a user attempts to access an ID belonging to another account, they receive a `403 Forbidden` response.
|
||||
- **Hierarchical Verification**: Child/Nested endpoints verify the ownership of the parent object before allowing operations on children, preventing cross-tenant "sideways" traversal.
|
||||
- **Creation Guard**: When creating records (`POST`), the user's `account_id` is automatically forced onto the new record, preventing a user from creating data for another account.
