Complex Systems Science Theories in Security Engineering

The post discusses a security engineering framework called Governed Agency, based on complex systems theories, implemented at a scale of 90PB/day. It introduces concepts like Target Anatomy (defining a healthy network state) and techniques such as TOTE Loops (for compliance logging), Cognitive Light Cones (limiting bot visibility and decision-making), and Bioelectric Telemetry (using APIs as a shared reality for security tools). The author warns against "Security Cancer", where autonomous agents prioritize local goals over company-wide security. The post questions how others manage "Rogue Agency" in automation, contrasting script-based approaches with goal-driven systems.
