## Audit Questions & Responses

### 1. Authentication & Access Control

#### Q1.1: Can tenant access another tenant's data?

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **Control Area** | Multi-tenancy |
| **Risk** | Cross-tenant data breach |
| **Status** | ✅ PASS |

**Test Performed:**
```
python
# Test: Attempt cross-tenant access
# 1. Login as Tenant A user
# 2. Attempt to access Tenant B resources
# 3. Verify access is denied

# Code from security/tenant_scope.py
class TenantScope:
    @staticmethod
    def validate_access(resource_tenant_id: str, user_tenant_id: str):
        if resource_tenant_id != user_tenant_id:
            raise PermissionDenied("Cross-tenant access denied")
```

**Evidence:**
- Tenant ID is validated server-side on every request
- Database queries are automatically scoped to tenant
- No IDOR vulnerabilities found in testing

**Remediation (if failing):**
- Implement tenant-scoped database queries
- Add tenant ID to all resource access checks
