Execution control across critical industries

TrigGuard authorizes irreversible actions - it does not treat every high-impact command as malicious. Each sector shows PERMIT, DENY, ESCALATE, and SILENCE against the same class of work.

PERMIT · DENY · ESCALATE · SILENCE before irreversible execution

The risk is unauthorized execution - not the action class. Approved work proceeds with a receipt.

Financial services Authorizes payments, credit decisions, fraud actions ESCALATE £5M Wire Outside Policy Intervention required before settlement
Banking & insurance deep dive →

Governed Actions

  • Payments
  • Credit decisions
  • Fraud actions
  • Model execution

Protected Assets

  • Customer funds
  • Transaction systems
  • Credit infrastructure
  • Fraud decision engines

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Invoice payment below policy threshold

  • DENY

    Transfer to an unauthorized account

  • ESCALATE

    £5M cross-border wire outside standing authority

  • SILENCE

    Missing authentication on treasury request

What this means

A wire is not inherently malicious. Policy decides whether it proceeds, stops, escalates, or withholds.

  • Approved payments execute with a receipt.
  • Out-of-policy transfers escalate or deny - they are not blocked because “payment” is bad.
Healthcare Authorizes diagnosis routing, patient data access, clinical automation DENY PHI to Unapproved Destination Export blocked at the boundary
Healthcare AI deep dive →

Governed Actions

  • Diagnosis routing
  • Patient data access
  • Clinical automation
  • Care pathway execution

Protected Assets

  • Patient records
  • PHI systems
  • Clinical infrastructure
  • Audit evidence stores

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Clinician access to assigned patient chart

  • DENY

    PHI export to an unapproved destination

  • ESCALATE

    Bulk research export needing ethics review

  • SILENCE

    Missing role binding on clinical agent

What this means

Data access is not the problem. Unauthorized destination or missing authority is.

  • Approved clinical workflows proceed with receipts.
  • Boundary violations deny; ambiguous authority escalates or silences.
Autonomous systems Authorizes robotics actuation, agent tools, industrial control ESCALATE Robot Enters Human Workspace Policy-required intervention before motion
Autonomous & industrial deep dive →

Governed Actions

  • Robotics actuation
  • Agent tool execution
  • Industrial control
  • Autonomous navigation

Protected Assets

  • Production lines
  • Safety interlocks
  • OT controllers
  • Human proximity zones

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Pick-and-place inside cleared cell envelope

  • DENY

    Actuation that breaches hard safety limits

  • ESCALATE

    Robot path enters occupied human workspace

  • SILENCE

    Missing mission authority on control command

What this means

Control commands are not blocked because robots move. They are authorized against envelope, mission, and proximity policy.

  • In-envelope work proceeds autonomously.
  • Human-space entry escalates; hard limit breaches deny.
Energy Authorizes grid commands, control changes, OT actuation ESCALATE Grid Reconfiguration Request Operator authority required before OT commit
Energy & utilities deep dive →

Governed Actions

  • Grid commands
  • Control changes
  • Infrastructure operations
  • OT actuation

Protected Assets

  • Substations
  • Control networks
  • Operational systems
  • SCADA interfaces

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Scheduled breaker open within approved window

  • DENY

    Override that violates islanding policy

  • ESCALATE

    Grid reconfiguration outside normal authority

  • SILENCE

    Unsigned control packet from automation agent

What this means

Grid commands are high-impact - not automatically forbidden. Authority and window decide the outcome.

  • In-window approved work proceeds with receipts.
  • Out-of-authority reconfiguration escalates; policy breaches deny.
Government Authorizes classified export, sovereign deploy, cross-domain transfer DENY Export to Restricted Jurisdiction Transfer blocked before leaving enclave
Sovereign infrastructure deep dive →

Governed Actions

  • Classified data export
  • Air-gapped deployment
  • Defence programme operations
  • Cross-domain transfer

Protected Assets

  • Sovereign workloads
  • National infrastructure
  • Key material
  • Air-gap boundaries

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Cleared transfer within authorized domain pair

  • DENY

    Export to a restricted jurisdiction

  • ESCALATE

    Cross-domain release needing dual control

  • SILENCE

    Missing clearance attestation on request

What this means

Cross-boundary transfer is a governed surface - not a synonym for attack.

  • Cleared paths permit with receipts.
  • Restricted destinations deny; dual-control cases escalate.
Execution governance Authorizes policy resolution, runtime enforcement, receipt verification PERMIT Approved Production Deployment Release proceeds with receipt
Platform architecture →

Governed Actions

  • Policy resolution
  • Runtime enforcement
  • Receipt verification
  • Fail-closed control

Protected Assets

  • Receipt chain
  • Investigation workspace
  • Authority registry
  • Audit trail integrity

Authorization outcomes

  • PERMIT

    Approved production deployment under policy

  • DENY

    Unauthorized production deploy without authority

  • ESCALATE

    Hotfix outside change window

  • SILENCE

    Missing signed policy binding on release request

What this means

Deployment is not the risk. Unauthorized deployment is. Policy-authorized releases proceed.

  • AI wants to deploy → TrigGuard evaluates → PERMIT → receipt → deploy runs.
  • Same surface can DENY, ESCALATE, or SILENCE when authority is missing or out of window.
