Controlled reproduction, execution assurance and independent evidence.
Initial outcome verification: independently compare the observed result with the authorized action, including any discrepancy.
Continuous outcome verification: compare later authoritative records with the initially verified result to detect subsequent changes, reversals or divergence. This workflow requires a connected authoritative outcome source, an agreed observation window and defined reconciliation rules.
Detection records a change after it occurs; prevention, reversal and recovery are separate controls.
- CONTROLS
- How an action behaves under reproducible state changes.
- CHANGES THE DECISION
- Whether observed behavior matches the expected safe outcome.
- EVIDENCE
- Test setup, mutations, side effects and comparison finding.
