Contradiction register
Autonomous response speed versus false-positive consequence
Resolution state
Use consequence models, independent corroboration, progressive tiers, reversible containment, runtime assurance, and tested safe states.
Proposition A
Rapid isolation can stop machine-speed lateral movement.
Proposition B
An incorrect isolation in OT, cooling, power, or safety systems can itself cause the high-consequence event.
Relationship
DEFENSIVE SPEED VERSUS CYBER-PHYSICAL SAFETY
Resolution method
Use consequence models, independent corroboration, progressive tiers, reversible containment, runtime assurance, and tested safe states.
Resolution status: PROJECT TECHNICAL PROPOSAL.
