DEFENSE

DEFENSE = MILITARY_STANDARD × CANONIC = Structure(defense) × (C1, C2, Temporal, Relational, C5) = owned defense vertical

DEFENSE = C1 ∩ C2 ∩ Temporal ∩ Relational ∩ C5 ∩ C6 = ENTERPRISE (#63)

Defense requires full Enterprise because:

• C1: Mission requirements must be stated
• C2: Compliance must be proven
• Temporal: Classification timelines, operational tempo
• Relational: Clearance levels, need-to-know boundaries
• C5: Chain of command enforces
• C6: Military standards (MIL-STD, DFARS)

1. Classification Integrity

Information MUST be protected according to its classification level. Spillage MUST be immediately reported and remediated.

Example: A SECRET document cannot be stored on an unclassified system. If discovered on an unclassified network, the incident triggers: isolation, forensic imaging, sanitization, and reporting to the security officer within 24 hours.

2. Need-to-Know

Access MUST be limited to individuals with both appropriate clearance AND need-to-know for their specific duties.

Example: A contractor with TOP SECRET clearance working on Program A cannot access Program B data, even if both are TOP SECRET. Access requires clearance level AND program briefing.

3. Chain of Command

Authority and accountability MUST flow through defined command structure. Bypassing chain of command requires explicit authorization.

Example: A software change to a weapons system requires approval from: developer lead, engineering manager, program manager, system safety, and contracting officer representative. Each level has defined responsibilities.

4. Mission Assurance

Systems supporting mission-critical functions MUST maintain availability and integrity under adversarial conditions.

Example: A command and control system must continue operating during cyberattack, electronic warfare, and kinetic damage. Redundancy, failover, and graceful degradation are required.

5. Supply Chain Security

All components in defense systems MUST have verified provenance and integrity.

Example: A microprocessor in a weapons system must trace to an approved supplier, through verified distribution channels, with tamper-evident packaging, and incoming inspection. Any break in chain requires quarantine.

`` DECLARE(CMMC) = NIST_800-171 × CANONIC

Where: NIST 800-171 provides Structure: - 14 security families - 110 security practices - Assessment procedures - System Security Plan format

CANONIC provides Governance: - C1: Security practices as claims - C2: Assessment evidence - Temporal: Continuous monitoring - Relational: CUI boundaries, enclaves - C5: C3PAO assessment

Result: CMMC = PATENT (#57)

Certification Lifecycle: Self-Assess — POA&M developed Remediate — Gaps closed Document — SSP completed Assess — C3PAO review Certified — CMMC certificate Maintain — Annual affirmation ``

`` DECLARE(Weapons) = MIL-STD-882 × CANONIC

Where: MIL-STD-882 provides Structure: - Hazard analysis - Risk assessment matrix - Safety verification - Residual risk acceptance

CANONIC provides Governance: - C1: Safety requirements - C2: Test results, analysis - Temporal: Development phases - Relational: System boundaries - C5: Safety review boards

Result: Weapons = ENTERPRISE (#63)

Safety Lifecycle: Preliminary Hazard Analysis = COMMUNITY System Hazard Analysis = (#23) Subsystem Hazard Analysis = BUSINESS Verification = BUSINESS Residual Risk Acceptance = ENTERPRISE ``

Pattern: Higher classification = more lattice components required.

To create a CANONIC defense vertical:

Identify contract requirements (DFARS clauses) Create scope with CANON.md inheriting /DEFENSE/ Define security requirements from NIST 800-171 Document evidence (SSP, policies, procedures) Establish CUI boundaries (enclaves, data flows) Implement controls (technical, administrative, physical) Prepare for assessment (C3PAO for CMMC) Maintain compliance (continuous monitoring)

Result: Owned defense vertical with CMMC-ready governance.

DEFENSE × AEROSPACE = Military aviation (MIL-STD-882E + DO-178C) DEFENSE × ROBOTICS = Military robotics, autonomous weapons (MIL-STD-882E + ISO 10218) DEFENSE × MEDICINE = Combat medicine, TRICARE governance (DHA + HIPAA) DEFENSE × LOGISTICS = Military logistics, DMSMS (MIL-STD-3018 + GS1) DEFENSE × MANUFACTURING = Defense manufacturing, ITAR compliance (DFARS + IEC 62443) DEFENSE × ENERGY = Military power systems, nuclear navy (NRC + DoD) DEFENSE × FINANCE = Defense contracting, DCAA audit (FAR/DFARS + GAAP) DEFENSE × EDUCATION = Military training, PME accreditation (JPME + SACSCOC) DEFENSE × GENOMICS = Biosurveillance, pathogen genomics (DoD + CDC) DEFENSE × AUTOMOTIVE = Tactical vehicles, mine-resistant (MIL-STD-1472 + SAE)

10 cross-domain compositions. Each strengthens PROV-001 and PROV-006 patent claims.

Gap: No existing system provides governance-gated defense compliance with O(1) bitwise checking across CMMC, ITAR, classification levels, and weapons system safety.
