Security Architecture

Threat containment, secure-by-default agents, and boundary enforcement

Purpose

Security is fundamental to LSI systems operating in enterprise and government environments. Organizations require threat containment, secure-by-default agent configurations, and boundary enforcement that prevents security violations.

LSI implements security through multiple layers: threat containment at the cell level, secure-by-default agent configurations, boundary enforcement at execution boundaries, and sandboxing that isolates potentially malicious operations.

How It Works

Threat Containment

Security threats are contained at the cell level through isolation boundaries. Each cell operates in a contained environment that prevents threats from propagating to other system components.

Threat detection mechanisms identify suspicious behavior, automatically isolate affected cells, and trigger remediation actions without disrupting overall system operations.

Secure-by-Default Agents

All agents are configured with secure-by-default settings that minimize attack surface and enforce least-privilege access. Security policies are applied automatically at agent creation and verified at runtime.

Default configurations align with security best practices and compliance requirements, reducing the risk of misconfiguration and ensuring consistent security posture across all agents.

Boundary Enforcement

Execution boundaries are enforced at runtime, preventing agents from exceeding their allocated resources, accessing unauthorized data, or performing prohibited operations.

Boundary violations are prevented before execution, logged for security analysis, and can trigger automatic remediation or alerting as configured.

Sandboxing

All agent operations occur within sandboxed environments that isolate potentially malicious code, prevent unauthorized system access, and limit the impact of security incidents.

Sandboxing mechanisms are implemented at multiple levels—cell, tissue, and organ—providing defense in depth and ensuring that security incidents are contained.

Capabilities

Threat Detection

Automated threat detection mechanisms identify suspicious behavior, security violations, and potential attacks in real-time.

Isolation Boundaries

Security boundaries isolate cells, preventing threats from propagating and ensuring that security incidents are contained.

Secure Configuration

Secure-by-default agent configurations minimize attack surface and enforce least-privilege access automatically.

Runtime Verification

Runtime verification of security boundaries, access permissions, and compliance requirements prevents security violations before execution.

Outcomes

LSI security architecture enables organizations to deploy autonomous systems with confidence, knowing that threat containment, secure-by-default configurations, boundary enforcement, and sandboxing protect against security incidents.
