# Security & Audit Operations

> Investigate Starfire AI sessions, devices, access events, admin actions, API abuse, rate limits, risk signals, and audit history.

# Security & audit operations

Control Center security combines account/session visibility, platform events, developer abuse signals, and administrator audit history into an operational view.

## Security domains

The administration architecture includes concepts such as:

* sessions
* devices
* authentication events
* security holds
* API abuse
* IP/network activity metadata where appropriate
* rate-limit events
* administrator actions
* risk rules/signals
* audit history

## User security timeline

A user security timeline can connect events such as sign-in, session creation, device activity, developer-key creation, billing changes, or other security-relevant account events.

The purpose is correlation: operators can understand what happened around an incident without manually joining unrelated systems.

## Session controls

With the appropriate permission, an operator can revoke a session or broader account session set when responding to a lost device or suspected compromise.

Developer credentials are independent resources and should be reviewed separately when necessary.

## Security holds

A `SECURITY_HOLD`-style account state can restrict sensitive activity while an issue is investigated without implying that the account is permanently banned or deleted.

The hold should include a reason and administrative context where supported.

## Administrator actions

Audit history is especially important for actions such as:

* role and permission changes
* session revocation
* account restrictions
* credit adjustments
* billing changes
* model publishing
* platform configuration changes
* maintenance actions

Audit history should make the actor, target, action, and time clear.

## API abuse

Developer abuse signals can be handled through narrower controls such as quota changes, credential revocation, or developer-access restrictions instead of disabling unrelated user access automatically.

## Privacy boundary

Security operations require metadata, but the platform should avoid turning security tooling into unrestricted access to private conversations or files.

<Warning>
  Security signals are evidence to investigate, not automatic proof of malicious intent. Use concrete event data and the platform's defined response controls rather than assumptions about a user.
