Valid8 GovCloud · Federal, State, and Local

Financial Evidence, Secured Inside a Government-Only Cloud

Valid8 GovCloud is a dedicated environment for government agencies, hosted entirely within the United States and separated from Valid8's commercial platform, with elevated security controls on the FedRAMP authorization track. Inside it, subpoenaed bank records, check images, and accounting exports become Verified Financial Intelligence: every transaction traced to its source, every figure reproducible, every finding ready for the courtroom.

  • Your agency's own environment, not a shared commercial tenant
  • Data stored, processed, and backed up in US regions only
  • Stricter access, operational, and data-handling guardrails than the commercial platform

What GovCloud Is

A Separate Environment Built for Public-Sector Evidence

Valid8 GovCloud is not a feature flag on the commercial product. It is a distinct deployment of the Valid8 platform reserved for government agencies, operated under stricter controls, and kept inside US borders end to end. Agencies get the same extract, verify, analyze, and visualize workflow with a security posture built for evidence that carries legal and privacy obligations.

Dedicated to Government

GovCloud serves government agencies only. Your casework is separated from commercial law firm and accounting tenants at the environment level, not just by a permissions setting. Access is limited to screened Valid8 personnel supporting the government environment.

Stays Within the United States

Evidence is stored, processed, and backed up in US regions only. No cross-border replication, no offshore processing, no routing through the international instances Valid8 operates for commercial customers in Canada, the EU, the UK, and Australia.

Elevated Security Guardrails

GovCloud runs under the control set being assessed for FedRAMP authorization: tighter access management, change control, logging and monitoring, incident response, and data-handling rules than the commercial platform. The guardrails apply to Valid8's own operators as much as to end users.

Security and Authorization

Built for the Authorization Boundary, Not Retrofitted to It

Financial evidence is sensitive by definition. GovCloud was stood up as its own boundary so the controls, the attestations, and the FedRAMP package describe the environment your evidence actually lives in, with documentation you can hand to your ISSO or CIO today.

Chain of Custody

Source Linked at Intake

Every document, reconciliation, and finding stays in one controlled environment with its source attached. No exports to personal laptops, no spreadsheets in email, no fourth version of a working file.

  • One record shared by investigators, analysts, and prosecutors
  • Permissions set by your agency, per user and per case
  • Any figure opens to the statement page or check image behind it
Deterministic by Design

Reproducible Under Cross-Examination

Valid8 reconciles by rule. Nothing is estimated or sampled. Run the same production through the same process and you land in the same place every time, which is the standard a defense expert will test.

  • Full-population analysis, not samples
  • AI reads a reconciled ledger and never alters the evidence
  • Indexed, courtroom-ready reports tied to source exhibits
Infrastructure

US-Only Hosting, Government-Only Tenancy

GovCloud runs on industry-leading US cloud infrastructure with authentication and architecture designed for data protection from the ground up, and no dependency on Valid8's international regions.

  • Storage, processing, and backups confined to US regions
  • Data Security Brief and SOC 2 Type II report on request
  • Confidential security and ethics reporting channel, no IP logging

Need documentation for a security questionnaire, SSP input, or vendor risk review? Request the Data Security Brief and SOC 2 Type II report through the Valid8 Trust Center.

The Platform

From Subpoena Return to Flow of Funds in Hours

Four stages, one controlled environment. Each stage inherits the source links of the one before it, so the final visualization is as defensible as the first upload.

  1. 01 / EXTRACT

    Load Any Production

    Bank, brokerage, and card statements. Check and deposit slip images. Handwritten instruments and low-quality scans. Accounting exports from 30-plus systems. Parsed in minutes, not weeks.

  2. 02 / VERIFY

    Confirm Every Transaction

    Each entry is reconciled against its source and flagged when a page, period, or account is missing from the production. Gaps become a follow-up subpoena, not a surprise at trial.

  3. 03 / ANALYZE

    Trace Transfers and New Accounts

    Transfers between accounts and entities are identified automatically, including previously unknown accounts. Multi-currency productions normalize to your base currency.

  4. 04 / VISUALIZE

    Present the Flow of Funds

    Sources, accounts, and uses in one picture a jury can follow, with indexed transaction lists behind every node. Export for the prosecutor, the grand jury, or the restitution hearing.

From the Field
"I've spent over two decades chasing drug traffickers, human traffickers and money launderers. Time and time again, the real breakthroughs didn't come from informants or wiretaps, but from financial records. Following the money exposes the full criminal network and allows us to cut off its ability to operate."

Questions From Agencies

Common Questions From Agency Teams

What is the difference between Valid8 GovCloud and the commercial Valid8 platform?

They run the same investigative workflow. GovCloud is a separate deployment reserved for government agencies, hosted only in US regions, isolated from commercial tenants, and operated under the elevated control set being assessed for FedRAMP authorization. Commercial customers use regional instances in the US, Canada, the EU, the UK, and Australia under Valid8's standard SOC 2 Type II program.

Does any GovCloud data leave the United States?

No. Storage, processing, and backups for GovCloud are confined to US regions. There is no cross-border replication and no routing through international instances.

Can Valid8 process the volume of financial evidence in a large investigation?

Yes. Valid8 is engineered for completeness and processes high volumes of financial evidence for thousands of federal, state, and local investigations annually. It automates roughly 90% of the manual work, which lets a unit carry a larger caseload with existing headcount.

How does Valid8 handle handwritten checks, poor-quality scans, and mixed productions?

Valid8 extracts and verifies data from handwritten instruments, low-quality scans, and mixed-format documents, which are common in subpoena returns and seized records. Items that cannot be verified are flagged rather than silently guessed.

Does Valid8 support restitution and loss quantification?

Yes. Because the platform works from the full population of transactions rather than a sample, investigators can calculate total misuse, unauthorized withdrawals, or improper reimbursements with figures that trace back to source exhibits.

What is the status of FedRAMP authorization?

Valid8 Financial GovCloud holds FedRAMP In Process designation and is listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace. The sponsoring agency is the FTC Bureau of Consumer Protection, with full authorization targeted for 2027. SOC 2 Type II, TX-RAMP, HIPAA, and GDPR coverage are in place today.

Will the output hold up in court?

Every figure in a Valid8 report opens to the transactions inside it, and every transaction opens to the statement page, check image, or deposit slip it came from. Reconciliation is deterministic, so an opposing expert running the same production reaches the same result.

Can co-counsel, outside experts, or task-force partners work in the same case?

Yes. Unlimited users work from one controlled record with permissions your agency sets. Nothing has to be exported and emailed to collaborate.
