A Foundational Validation of a Multi-Physics Digital Immune System
The prevailing doctrine of reactive cybersecurity—a resource-intensive cycle of patching vulnerabilities post-attack—is economically unsustainable and strategically flawed. ForgeX4 COSMOS-Ω is a completed research project that presents a validated, practical alternative.
This project introduces and validates a Multi-Physics Digital Immune System, an autonomous foundry that does not repair programs but autonomously synthesizes novel, provably accountable security policies. It represents a paradigm shift from manual, reactive patching to proactive, generative defense.
This repository contains the complete source code, experimental data, and auditable artifacts from this research, led by Project Director Kian Mansouri Jamshidi.
A new scientific principle demonstrating that a program's physical side-effects (CPU, memory, I/O) can serve as a universal, high-fidelity information channel to guide evolutionary algorithms.
A bio-inspired security model with a behavioral classifier achieving 99.3% accuracy, overcoming the brittleness of traditional Automated Program Repair (APR).
A tamper-evident, SHA-256 chained "Ledger" provides an immutable and verifiable audit trail of the AI's entire decision-making process, satisfying frameworks like DARPA's Responsible AI.
The COSMOS-Ω system autonomously synthesized a novel, multi-state security policy for the cJSON library, achieving a composite Final Fitness Score of +1499.97.
The system achieved this peak fitness score in Generation 0, providing definitive empirical proof that the MPED fitness landscape provides an exceptionally clear and powerful gradient for security policy discovery.
The project is designed for full reproducibility.
