File payloads are transferred directly between authorized Windows endpoints and are not stored in a Stryqbyte cloud file service during normal operation, ensuring compliance with data handling standards. Offline seat licensing is validated on the device, meaning that routine transfers do not send file contents or conduct live license checks to Stryqbyte, further supporting your IT compliance needs. The optional rendezvous feature, which is off by default, only shares metadata to assist endpoints in locating each other; actual file payloads are not transmitted. Additionally, audit logs are retained locally according to your configuration and are exportable for review in SIEM or SSP processes, helping maintain accountability in relation to CMMC certification.

When CMMC-on mode is enabled, Stryq enhances data handling by requiring stronger settings, such as elevated key-derivation parameters, and logs transfer events suitable for deploy-as-documented workflows. This process reflects in-application policy enforcement related to IT compliance, rather than organizational certification.
