Audit trail
A traceable history of material actions, decisions, approvals, changes, and exceptions in a workflow.
Human-in-the-loop
A required human decision or review step within a system, used where judgment or accountability cannot be delegated to automation.
Least privilege
An access rule that gives a user or service only the permissions needed for its defined task, and no broader access by default.
RAG
Retrieval-augmented generation: a pattern that retrieves selected source material before an AI model drafts an answer, so the answer can be grounded in approved context.
