The thirteen documents of OSAFIS 2.0.0-draft.1, a research proposal for describing and assessing security failures in intelligent systems.

1. 01OSAFIS Research Vision

   OSAFIS proposes a common representation for analysing security failures in intelligent systems. Its purpose is to connect the security contract that failed to…

2. 02Foundational Concepts

   OSAFIS proposes a vocabulary for describing security failures in intelligent systems and the evidence needed to assess them.

3. 03Security Layers

   The nine OSAFIS layer identifiers organize analysis by the object, function, or relationship whose security contract may fail.

4. 04Security Properties

   A security property names an obligation that an assessment can instantiate for a protected object, function, or relationship.

5. 05Threat Model

   This threat model describes how an intelligent system can lose a specified security property through adversarial influence or through a security-relevant…

6. 06Attack Taxonomy

   An attack classification should explain the intervention an adversary attempted, the contract it challenged, and the evidence connecting intervention to effect.

7. 07Assessment Methodology

   This methodology turns a security hypothesis into a bounded, reproducible assessment. It specifies artifacts and decision rules for investigating whether a…

8. 08Domain Profiles

   A domain profile specifies how the framework applies to a bounded class of deployments. The analytical vocabulary can be shared across systems while…

9. 09Vulnerability Registry

   The registry records claims, evidence, decisions, and their revision history. Inclusion does not establish validity or framework recognition.

10. 10OSAFIS Relationship to Existing Frameworks

    OSAFIS should interoperate with established AI security resources. Its proposed contribution is a contract-centred representation that connects a finding to…

11. 11OSAFIS Versioning and Identifiers

    The proposed format is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH with an optional prerelease suffix. A MAJOR revision changes the interpretation or classification obligations of…

12. 12Future and Autonomous Systems

    OSAFIS should remain useful when an intelligent system learns online, changes its executable rules, observes a digital environment, controls physical…
