Technical materials and evaluation references.

White papers, exploit evidence, validation posture, and architectural references for reviewers, partners, and prospective design partners.

Public Architecture Materials

Architectural overviews of the IVD security model.

These are public documents intended to explain the architecture, terminology, and boundary conditions without disclosing internal-only evaluation materials.

White Paper

Unified Architecture White Paper

From Implicit Execution to Explicit Control. A unified treatment of IVD-N and IVD-ACP as complementary disciplines, with formal definitions for whether inputs should be trusted, compact traffic fingerprints, grouped attack objects, and repeatable enforcement outcomes after policy evaluation. Includes representative IVD-N FlowSpec expression and IVD-ACP decision trace examples.

White Paper

IVD-ACP White Paper

Pre-Execution Control Planes for AI and Software Supply Chains. Focused treatment of IVD-ACP covering AI-generated actions, software dependencies, scripts, and administrative commands. Direct application to recent supply-chain compromise events including the March 2026 Axios npm compromise.

Exploit / Remedy Architectural Mapping Examples

Real-world exploit classes mapped to architectural responses.

These materials are architectural mapping examples for reviewer orientation. They are not claims of production deployment, prevention, or incident-specific validation.

Library

Exploit / Remedy Card Library

These cards are architectural mapping examples, not evidence cards. They show how current exploit classes map to IVD-N or IVD-ACP response surfaces, while test evidence is summarized separately on the Federal Evaluation and Technology pages.

Evaluation Materials

Posture, scope, and validation references.

These references explain current validation posture, what qualified evaluators can review, and how the public claims are scoped.

Federal Posture

Federal Evaluation

Controlled-environment validation evidence, TRL-7-oriented independent testing underway with Gear Six Labs, pending federal lab pathway, and scoped evaluation boundaries.

Review
Architecture

Technology

The IVD architecture as observation, correlation, policy, enforcement, identity, and audit layers, and how distributed behavior is reduced into limited policy action.

Read
IP Posture

IP Status

Two filed United States non-provisional utility applications covering the dual-prong defense architecture, anchored to a November 2025 provisional priority document.

Review
Design Rationale

Architectural Rationale

Secondary background on cost asymmetry, signal extraction, limited decisions, and earlier control points.

Validation and Evidence Materials for Qualified Review

Public-safe materials for technical diligence.

IVD maintains controlled-environment evidence materials for qualified technical review, including validation summaries, structured audit logs, policy decision records, rule lifecycle records, quarantine and event records, methodology notes, and hash-anchored evidence bundles. Public excerpts are intended to explain scope and method; they are not a substitute for full technical diligence.

  • Test summaries
  • Audit logs
  • Policy decision records
  • Rule lifecycle records
  • Router or testbed state records where public-safe
  • ACP quarantine and event records
  • Methodology notes
  • Hash manifests or evidence bundle references
  • Replay materials where appropriate

Current maturity posture: IVD has controlled-environment validation evidence supporting a TRL-6-style posture within its tested scope. TRL-7-oriented independent testing is underway with Gear Six Labs, a European third-party software testing lab, with completion targeted for June 25, 2026. Federal lab evaluation remains a separate pending pathway and has not yet been completed.

References to Gear Six Labs describe the current independent testing pathway and do not indicate completed TRL-7 validation until the final testing report is complete.

IP and Status Materials

Patent position, maturity posture, and review boundaries.

Use the IP Status, Federal Evaluation, and Technology validation sections together when reviewing what is filed, what has been tested, what is underway, and what is not claimed.

Direct Engagement

Federal evaluators, design partners, and licensing reviewers can request structured materials.

Direct federal engagement materials, including scenario-specific technical memoranda, are not posted publicly. Qualified reviewers can request access through the contact channel and will be routed to the appropriate intake path.
