Enterprise Adversarial ML Governance Engine

v5.0 LTS — Autonomous Security Nervous System for Global AI Fleets

Model Overview

Enterprise Adversarial ML Governance Engine v5.0 LTS is a production-grade autonomous security nervous system built around a 1,199,882-parameter PyTorch CNN trained on MNIST, hardened against four major adversarial attack classes (FGSM, PGD, DeepFool, C&W L₂) with 96.6–99.0% robustness across all attack vectors.

This is not just a model — it is a complete governance engine: the CNN is the defended asset at the center of a 7-table SQLite memory galaxy, a gRPC + Protobuf cross-domain signalling bus, a FastAPI firewall, and a full compliance stack covering ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, FedRAMP High, GDPR Art. 32, OWASP ASVS 4.0, OpenSSF Scorecard, and SLSA Level 3.

Designed for ten-year survivability. See LTS_MANIFEST.md.

Governed Inference (REST API)

# Authenticated prediction with full audit trail
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/predict \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOVERNANCE_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tensor":[[[[0.0,0.1,0.2]]]],"audit_level":"full"}'

Expected response:

{
  "prediction": 7,
  "confidence": 0.991,
  "latency_ms": 5.2,
  "attack_detected": false,
  "audit_id": "gov-20260102-abc123",
  "governance_tier": "full"
}

Python — Direct Model Loading (PyTorch)

import torch
from torchvision import transforms
from PIL import Image

# Load the governed model directly
model = torch.load(
    "models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth",
    map_location="cpu"
)
model.eval()

# Preprocess MNIST-style input
transform = transforms.Compose([
    transforms.Grayscale(),
    transforms.Resize((28, 28)),
    transforms.ToTensor(),
    transforms.Normalize((0.1307,), (0.3081,))
])

# Inference
img = Image.open("your_digit.png")
tensor = transform(img).unsqueeze(0)          # Shape: [1, 1, 28, 28]

with torch.no_grad():
    logits = model(tensor)
    prediction = logits.argmax(dim=1).item()
    confidence = torch.softmax(logits, dim=1).max().item()

print(f"Prediction: {prediction} | Confidence: {confidence:.3f}")

Memory-Efficient Loading

# The model is only 4.8MB — no quantization needed for CPU deployment
# For high-throughput environments, use the governed FastAPI endpoint instead
import torch

device = torch.device("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")
model = torch.load("models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth", map_location=device)
model.eval()

Clean (no attack)	—	—	99.0%	Baseline accuracy

Planetary Gate Threshold: Robustness ≥ 88.0/100 across all attack vectors. All metrics verified via make planetary-gate.

Reproduce Evaluation

# Run full planetary gate (requires Go 1.22+ for SLSA attestations)
make planetary-gate

# Individual attack evaluations
python attacks/fgsm_eval.py --epsilon 0.3 --model models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth
python attacks/pgd_eval.py  --epsilon 0.3 --model models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth
python attacks/deepfool_eval.py            --model models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth
python attacks/cw_eval.py                  --model models/pretrained/mnist_cnn_fixed.pth

Known Limitations

Robustness figures validated on MNIST-domain inputs (28×28 grayscale). Performance on out-of-distribution inputs or non-image modalities requires separate validation.
Governance overhead (5ms → 1,180ms) is intentional — the 1,175ms delta is the cost of the full audit trail, adversarial detection, and compliance logging pipeline.
Attack evaluations use the standard ε=0.3 threat model. Stronger adversaries (ε > 0.3) may reduce robustness below the planetary gate threshold.

⚠️ Intended Use, Limitations & Safety

Intended Use

This model and governance engine are intended for:

Security research: Evaluating adversarial robustness of ML systems
Enterprise AI governance: Reference implementation for production ML security
Education: Demonstrating adversarial ML attack/defense cycles
MLOps tooling: Integrating governed inference into production pipelines

Out-of-Scope Use

High-stakes clinical or financial decisions without additional domain-specific validation
Real-time safety-critical systems (autonomous vehicles, medical devices) — the 1,180ms governed latency is unsuitable
Non-MNIST image domains without fine-tuning and re-evaluation
Offensive adversarial attack tooling — the attack arsenal is included for defense validation only

Known Risks & Mitigations

Risk	Mitigation
Adversarial inputs at ε > 0.3 may reduce robustness	Re-evaluate with `make planetary-gate` at your threat model
Governance overhead may be unsuitable for real-time systems	Use cached inference path (5ms p99) for latency-sensitive deployments
MNIST-domain specificity	Re-train and re-evaluate on your target domain before production use
Supply chain compromise	Verify all artifact SHA-256 hashes against `LTS_MANIFEST.md` before deployment

EU AI Act Compliance Note (2026)

This model system may qualify as a general-purpose AI system under EU AI Act Article 51 if deployed in regulated contexts. Before deploying in EU-regulated environments, complete the following:

Register with the EU AI Act database if deploying in high-risk categories (Annex III)
Conduct a conformity assessment referencing the compliance matrix above
Maintain the audit trail generated by the governance engine for ≥ 7 years per GDPR Art. 32 requirements

🔬 Training Details

Model

The mnist_cnn_fixed.pth model is a custom CNN trained on the MNIST handwritten digit dataset with adversarial training applied post-baseline to improve robustness.

Training Data

Dataset: MNIST (ylecun/mnist) — 60,000 training / 10,000 test grayscale 28×28 images, 10 classes (digits 0–9)
License: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0

Adversarial Hardening

The model underwent post-training adversarial hardening using FGSM and PGD-based augmentation to improve robustness at ε=0.3. DeepFool and C&W L₂ robustness emerges from this training regime without explicit targeted hardening.

Carbon Footprint

Training a 1.2M-parameter CNN on MNIST is computationally minimal. Estimated CO₂: < 1kg CO₂e on a standard GPU. Exact measurement pending codecarbon integration.
