Security Assumptions and Non-Assumptions¶
This page records explicit architecture assumptions to reduce ambiguity.
Security Assumptions¶
- Identity assertions can be validated through trusted identity infrastructure.
- Authority context can be represented as scoped, time-bound claims.
- Policy decisions are evaluated before external execution attempts.
- High-impact actions can be gated by accountable human approval.
- Runtime trust conditions can be monitored continuously.
- Evidence can be generated with correlation identifiers and UTC timestamps.
Explicit Non-Assumptions¶
- The architecture does not assume perfect model behavior.
- The architecture does not assume connectors are always healthy.
- The architecture does not assume policy inputs are always complete.
- The architecture does not assume approvals are evergreen.
- The architecture does not assume logs alone guarantee integrity.
- The architecture does not assume every threat can be prevented.
Security Language Boundary¶
This reference architecture is intended to reduce risk and improve governance visibility. It does not claim universal prevention of unauthorized activity.
