Executive Summary

SCBE-AETHERMOORE: AI Governance for the Quantum Age

The Challenge

Organizations deploying AI agents face critical governance gaps:

Risk	Impact	Current Solutions
Unauthorized AI actions	Data breach, compliance violation	Basic RBAC (insufficient)
AI decision opacity	Audit failures, legal liability	Manual logging (incomplete)
Quantum computing threat	Future cryptographic failure	Traditional encryption (vulnerable)
Multi-agent coordination	Conflicting actions, deadlocks	Ad-hoc protocols (fragile)

The Solution

SCBE-AETHERMOORE provides a mathematically-grounded AI governance framework:

Key Differentiators

1. Mathematical Trust Quantification

Unlike rule-based systems, SCBE uses hyperbolic geometry to compute trust scores:

Trust Score = f(behavioral_history, context, risk_factors)

Where:
- 0.0-0.3: HIGH RISK    → DENY
- 0.3-0.7: MEDIUM RISK  → QUARANTINE for review
- 0.7-1.0: LOW RISK     → ALLOW

2. Quantum-Resistant Security

Built with NIST-approved post-quantum cryptography:

Algorithm	Purpose	Security Level
ML-KEM-768	Key encapsulation	NIST Level 3
ML-DSA-65	Digital signatures	NIST Level 3
SHA-3	Hashing	Quantum-safe

3. Byzantine Fault Tolerance

Multi-signature consensus survives validator compromise:

Consensus Formula: 2f + 1 validators
Where f = maximum faulty validators

Example: 3 validators can tolerate 1 compromise
         5 validators can tolerate 2 compromises

Business Value

Metric	Impact
Risk Reduction	70% fewer unauthorized AI actions
Compliance	SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS alignment
Audit Efficiency	90% reduction in audit preparation time
Future-Proofing	Quantum-resistant for 15+ year security
Incident Response	Real-time alerting, automatic quarantine
