Zero Trust Engineering — Network route and topology integrity

/02 About

Networks and environments engineering reference for network route and topology integrity, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Network route and topology integrity. Domain: Networks and environments. Family: assurance. Scenario trigger: Detect network route or topology change. Input assurance: Signed control-plane events, intended routes and peer identities. Evaluation: Verify authorized route origins and reachability invariants. Governing policy: Route authorization, segmentation and change-control policy. Resource-side obligation: Reject unauthorized route changes and signal topology drift. Protected concern: Enterprise routing and connectivity control plane. Logical interface: Route origin prefix next-hop domain owner change revision and proof. Evidence: Route provenance approved topology revision and drift finding. Failure: Route hijack, unauthorized lateral path or asymmetric routing. Required recovery: Withdraw unsafe route and rebuild trusted topology state. Architectural invariant: Route changes must not create unintended security-boundary crossings Adoption: replace reference roles with concrete owner-controlled services. Specify exact provider/consumer identities, schema fields and classifications, signal provenance and freshness, idempotency, authorization lifetime, timeout/retry limits, observation and tamper evidence. A denied or failed operation must not silently become a permitted one. Scope: original vendor-neutral, implementation-agnostic technical reference model. Illustrative logical components and behaviors are neither a deployed system nor evidence of regulatory compliance. Package identities remain stable within the package; cross-package semantic reconciliation requires separate explicit registry support.
