Zero Trust Engineering — Vulnerability and exposure assessment

/02 About

Devices and endpoints engineering reference for vulnerability and exposure assessment, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Vulnerability and exposure assessment. Domain: Devices and endpoints. Family: assurance. Scenario trigger: Evaluate device vulnerability exposure. Input assurance: Software/firmware inventory, advisories and exploitability context. Evaluation: Prioritize actionable vulnerabilities and attack surface. Governing policy: Exposure prioritization and patch urgency policy. Resource-side obligation: Assign remediation controls and restrict vulnerable devices. Protected concern: Endpoint protection and patch service. Logical interface: Vulnerability identifier affected component confidence disposition and timestamp. Evidence: Vulnerability finding, priority and closure evidence. Failure: Unknown software state or critical active exploit. Required recovery: Contain exposed endpoint and require follow-up scan. Architectural invariant: Risk treatment must account for exploitability and actual asset exposure 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.
