Indeterminate Emergence
Indeterminate Emergence by Adam Bishop, XOps360 LLC. A security framework where meaningful information, capabilities, and system effects do not exist outside authorized execution contexts. The framework uses Pufferfish-style privacy definitions and differential privacy composition to provide formal guarantees against capability inference attacks. Absorptive execution, where the system continues responding identically while silently stopping real effects, is the core primitive. Available as a public repository on GitHub. A reference proof-of-concept (Python/FastAPI) with a test suite is implemented, and adversarial empirical evaluation is in progress ahead of formal submission to a peer-reviewed venue.
