A RoomHex deployment provides a set of protections, and each one stops at a defined boundary. A security team evaluating the platform needs both halves: what a protection covers, and what has to be handled by a separate control on their side.
Where the deployment sits
What self-hosting covers
RoomHex is fully self-hosted. It answers on the organization's own domain and needs no paid third-party service. Media and communication stay there, and nobody outside the organization sits in the path collecting them.
What a meeting produces sits with it. Participant lists, schedules and contact records live on the same infrastructure the sessions run on, and the jurisdiction that reaches them is the one you chose when you placed the servers.
What stays with your team
The security of that infrastructure is a separate question and it stays with the customer. The operating system, the network boundary, physical access to the machines and the backups all remain your responsibility.
Put that trade in front of a security review early. Self-hosting takes a third party out of the path and hands you their operational duties in exchange, so budget for the second half as well as the first.
What each protection covers, and where it runs out
Each row below is two claims side by side: what the platform does, and the work that stays on your side of it.
Several sites in one deployment
A customer working from several sites administers all of them from one deployment, with each branch scoped as the organization decides. What gets enforced is the set of boundaries the customer drew, applied the same way at every location. Whether they were drawn in the right place is a judgement for the customer to make.
Content protection
Content protection covers casual copying during normal use. It is not a barrier against a determined adversary, and once a person has legitimately seen the material, what happens to it next is outside the reach of the platform.
Say that plainly to whoever asked for the protection, because the request is often for something else underneath: a smaller audience, or a record of who was in the room when the material was shown. Admission and the session log can give you both of those.
