Security Model

Iron Harbor X operates under a deterministic security doctrine. System behavior must be visible, reproducible, and validated before deployment.

Security Constraints

  • No hidden processes or silent background execution
  • No unnecessary external dependencies
  • No unaudited control surfaces
  • No deployment without validation
  • No uncontrolled live execution paths

Attack Philosophy

Systems are built with the assumption that they will be attacked. The objective is controlled exposure, measurement, failure discovery, and hardening.

Validation Pipeline

  • Architecture review before implementation
  • Input and output traceability
  • State transition verification
  • Failure-mode discovery
  • Artifact hashing and release validation

Security is not treated as a claim. It is treated as a property that must be demonstrated through reproducible evidence.
