Inspect the decision contract.

Select a fictional, sanitized scenario to inspect the structured evidence path. These are illustrative fixtures, not live model predictions or benchmark samples.

Analyst verification required. Technique IDs and response steps must be checked against source evidence before action.
03 / System design

The model is one component.

NanoSOC keeps untrusted logs, model reasoning and high-impact actions behind explicit boundaries.

01Redact

Normalize events and remove secrets or tenant identifiers.

02Route

Select single-log or correlation adapter by task contract.

03Ground

Retrieve pinned MITRE, CISA KEV and Sigma evidence.

04Gate

Check provenance, confidence, injection and drift signals.

05Approve

Route consequential actions to a human with rollback context.

04 / Claim boundary

What is not proven yet.

False-positive behavior

The 1,000-event v8 diagnostic has 32.125% FPR versus a 3% product target. The gate is not passed.

MITRE attribution

The independent 24-technique diagnostic scores 0% exact. Detection and attribution remain separate quality gates.

Cross-source NIDS

The eight-source 3090 development run held macro FPR at 2.888%, but macro recall was only 8.729%. Failed weights were not released.

Firewall appliance

The stateful engine passed its authored 1,068-event fixture. Independent PCAP, line-rate, failover and customer shadow tests remain open.

Production efficacy

Only F0 currently passes all Excel gates. Customer pilot, independent red-team and legal approval remain open; no autonomous action is allowed.
