The '''Immune System''' within the [[Special:MyLanguage/.seigr|.seigr file format]] framework serves as a decentralized, self-sustaining network defense mechanism that preserves the integrity, availability, and authenticity of files stored across the Seigr Urcelial-net. This system operates with a level of adaptability inspired by biological immune responses, functioning through distributed “cells” (nodes) that monitor, respond to, and heal data threats dynamically. By leveraging the InterPlanetary File System ([[Special:MyLanguage/IPFS|IPFS]]) as its structural backbone, the Immune System creates a decentralized, organic-like environment that ensures continuous, tamper-resistant data integrity across a multidimensional network.
The '''Immune System''' within the [[Special:MyLanguage/Seigr Protocol|Seigr Protocol]] framework is a decentralized, adaptive defense mechanism that maintains the integrity, availability, and authenticity of capsules across the Seigr network. Inspired by biological immune responses, the Immune System operates through “cells” (nodes) that autonomously detect, respond to, and repair data threats within the [[Special:MyLanguage/Seigr Urcelial-net|Seigr Urcelial-net]]. This system uses [[Special:MyLanguage/IPFS|IPFS]] as its foundational network while leveraging Seigr’s unique [[Special:MyLanguage/Senary (Base-6)|Senary]] encoding and modular structures.

== Design Principles of the Seigr Immune System ==


The design of the '''Immune System''' within the Seigr Urcelial-net draws on concepts from biology, information theory, and decentralized network topologies to create a robust, responsive, and self-sustaining ecosystem. The primary design principles include:
Seigr’s Immune System combines concepts from biology, information theory, and decentralized topologies to establish a secure, adaptive ecosystem. Core principles include:


* '''Distributed Detection and Self-Repair''':
* '''Distributed Detection and Autonomous Repair''':
   - The network consists of “immune cells” (nodes) that monitor, detect, and respond to integrity threats independently. This distributed architecture enables each node to act autonomously in verifying data integrity, initiating replication, or self-healing in response to detected threats.
   - Autonomous “immune cells” (IPFS nodes) regularly verify data integrity through [[Special:MyLanguage/Redundancy Marker|Redundancy Markers]], [[Special:MyLanguage/HyphaCrypt|HyphaCrypt]] hashing, and multi-path retrieval checks. Nodes operate independently but collaborate to sustain network health.
  - Similar to cellular networks in biological systems, each node independently verifies data integrity using [[Special:MyLanguage/HyphaCrypt|HyphaCrypt]] hashing, cross-referencing hashes, and verifying segment integrity along multi-path retrieval routes.
 
* '''Dynamic Threat Response and Prioritization''':
  - The system adapts dynamically to prioritize data segments based on access frequency, threat level, and anomaly severity. Critical segments are replicated more frequently and restored quickly in response to threats.


* '''Dynamic Adaptation through Multi-Layered Monitoring''':
* '''Temporal Redundancy and Multi-Path Resilience''':
  - The immune system adapts dynamically based on network conditions, segment access frequency, and detected anomalies. This adaptive quality is analogous to immune cells prioritizing response based on threat levels, ensuring that high-risk or frequently accessed segments receive more robust monitoring and faster replication in response to threats.
   - Temporal layers allow nodes to restore compromised capsules to prior states, while multi-path retrieval provides secure recovery routes, even if parts of the network are compromised.
 
* '''Temporal Redundancy and Multi-Path Recovery''':
   - Temporal layers record the evolution of each segment, allowing the network to revert compromised segments to previously verified states. Multi-path retrieval across spatial and temporal coordinates enables data reconstruction even when segments or nodes are compromised.


== Mechanisms of the Immune System ==
== Immune System Mechanisms ==


The Immune System operates through a layered series of mechanisms that mirror biological processes such as immune surveillance, threat response, and cellular memory. Key mechanisms include:
The Seigr Immune System performs distributed checks, adaptive replication, self-healing, and threat detection. Its structure incorporates a layered approach inspired by biological immune systems, with a focus on continuous monitoring and rapid repair:


=== Distributed Integrity Pings (Immune Pings) ===
=== Distributed Integrity Pings ===


Each node performs periodic "immune pings" on assigned `.seigr` segments to check data integrity across multiple paths. This process can be described mathematically as a Markov chain process, where each ping has a transition probability of encountering a compromised segment or an intact one, based on the network’s current integrity state.
Each node performs scheduled "immune pings" on assigned `.seigr` capsules to check integrity across multiple retrieval paths. Modeled on a Markov process, each ping has a probability of encountering a compromised or intact segment.
 
* '''Probability Transition Matrix''': Define the probability matrix <math>P</math>, where <math>P_{ij}</math> represents the probability of transitioning from state <math>i</math> (uncompromised) to state <math>j</math> (compromised):


* '''Probability Transition Matrix''': Define the probability matrix <math>P</math> where each element <math>P_{ij}</math> represents the probability of transitioning from integrity state <math>i</math> (e.g., uncompromised) to state <math>j</math> (e.g., compromised):
 
   <math>P = \begin{bmatrix} p_{uu} & p_{uc} \\ p_{cu} & p_{cc} \end{bmatrix}</math>
   <math>P = \begin{bmatrix} p_{uu} & p_{uc} \\ p_{cu} & p_{cc} \end{bmatrix}</math>


   - Here, <math>p_{uu}</math> is the probability of an uncompromised segment remaining uncompromised, and <math>p_{cu}</math> is the probability of a compromised segment being healed through self-repair.
   Here, <math>p_{uu}</math> is the probability that an uncompromised capsule remains uncompromised, while <math>p_{cu}</math> is the probability that a compromised capsule recovers through self-repair.


Each node verifies segment integrity using primary and secondary hashes generated through [[Special:MyLanguage/HyphaCrypt|HyphaCrypt]]. When a node detects a failed integrity check, it records the anomaly and initiates further action, either through replication or rollback.
Nodes use [[Special:MyLanguage/Redundancy Marker|Redundancy Markers]] to verify integrity, with detected failures initiating replication or rollback.


=== Threat Detection and Security Replication ===
=== Threat Detection and Adaptive Replication ===


When integrity failures exceed a certain threshold (analogous to a biological "inflammatory response"), the system dynamically replicates vulnerable segments across additional nodes. Security replication is mathematically optimized by tracking access frequency <math>f(s)</math> and threat frequency <math>t(s)</math> for each segment <math>s</math>, ensuring that replication increases with perceived threat level.
Segments with high failure rates trigger additional replication to prevent data loss and enhance security. Adaptive replication depends on the access frequency <math>f(s)</math> and threat frequency <math>t(s)</math> of a segment <math>s</math>.


* '''Replication Function''': Let the security replication count <math>R(s)</math> be a function of access and threat frequencies:
* '''Replication Function''': Define replication count <math>R(s)</math> based on access and threat levels:
    
    
   <math>R(s) = \alpha f(s) + \beta t(s)</math>
   <math>R(s) = \alpha f(s) + \beta t(s)</math>


   where <math>\alpha</math> and <math>\beta</math> are scaling constants that adjust the sensitivity of replication to access and threat levels. This formula ensures that highly accessed, frequently threatened segments have a higher replication count.
   where <math>\alpha</math> and <math>\beta</math> are constants modulating replication sensitivity. Higher access and threat levels result in more replication.


* '''Self-Healing Mechanism''': Threatened segments that continue to fail integrity checks initiate a "self-healing" response, prompting nodes to use alternative temporal layers and multi-path routing to restore data.
* '''Self-Healing Mechanism''': When segments fail repeated integrity checks, nodes access alternate paths and temporal layers to restore data, embodying Seigr’s self-healing philosophy.


=== Rollback and Temporal Layer Recovery ===
=== Rollback and Temporal Layer Recovery ===


The Immune System uses temporal layers as a rollback mechanism to revert to previous secure states. Temporal redundancy allows nodes to retrieve past versions of a compromised segment without dependency on a single storage path, ensuring continuity even under sustained attacks.
Temporal redundancy enables nodes to revert capsules to previous states, preserving historical integrity. Rollback ensures data consistency without centralized storage dependencies.


* '''Mathematical Model of Rollback''': Let <math>T_n</math> represent the temporal state of a segment at time <math>n</math>. When a segment is compromised at time <math>n+k</math>, rollback recovers the segment to its last known secure state <math>T_n</math>, minimizing the effect of the compromise.
* '''Rollback Model''': Given <math>T_n</math> as a capsule’s state at time <math>n</math>, rollback to a prior state <math>T_{n+k}</math> restores its last verified integrity:


   <math>\text{Rollback}(T_{n+k}) = T_n \quad \text{where} \quad n \leq k</math>
   <math>\text{Rollback}(T_{n+k}) = T_n \quad \text{where} \quad n \leq k</math>


* '''IPFS as Temporal Redundancy Framework''': Using IPFS to distribute previous states across nodes provides an efficient and decentralized "memory" for the network, allowing nodes to access and restore earlier versions without the need for centralized backup.
* '''IPFS and Temporal Redundancy''': IPFS distributes past states across nodes, enabling decentralized “memory” for autonomous rollback.


=== Anomaly-Based Replication Scaling ===
=== Anomaly Detection and Replication Scaling ===


If segments are found to experience recurring integrity failures or high access rates, the Immune System triggers anomaly-based replication scaling, increasing replication frequency specifically for these segments.
Segments with high threat frequencies activate replication scaling, where replication increases based on statistical analysis. Anomalous segments are flagged using z-scores, with high-risk segments prioritized for protection.


* '''Anomaly Detection Algorithm''': By tracking access patterns and integrity failures, the system identifies outlier segments using anomaly detection techniques, such as z-scores or threshold-based methods. For a given segment <math>s</math>, if the z-score <math>Z(s)</math> of its integrity failure count exceeds a defined threshold <math>\theta</math>, additional replication is triggered:
* '''Anomaly Detection Algorithm''': If the z-score <math>Z(s)</math> of a segment’s threat level exceeds a threshold <math>\theta</math>, replication is increased:


   <math>Z(s) = \frac{t(s) - \mu_t}{\sigma_t} \quad \text{where} \quad t(s) > \theta</math>
   <math>Z(s) = \frac{t(s) - \mu_t}{\sigma_t} \quad \text{where} \quad Z(s) > \theta</math>


   Here, <math>\mu_t</math> is the average threat frequency across the network, and <math>\sigma_t</math> is the standard deviation, making <math>Z(s)</math> a relative measure of threat anomaly.
   Here, <math>\mu_t</math> and <math>\sigma_t</math> are the mean and standard deviation of network-wide threat frequencies, with <math>Z(s)</math> quantifying a segment’s relative anomaly.


=== Sixth-Layer Randomized Replication (6RR) Mechanism ===
=== Sixth-Layer Randomized Replication (6RR) Mechanism ===


The [[Special:MyLanguage/6RR Mechanism|6RR Mechanism]], or Sixth-Layer Randomized Replication, is a specialized protocol within the Immune System that replicates data across six hierarchical layers from the original `.seigr` file segment. By introducing a random replication among sixth-layer nodes, 6RR disperses redundancy unpredictably, making it difficult for attackers to anticipate replication patterns, thereby strengthening data integrity across decentralized paths.
The [[Special:MyLanguage/6RR Mechanism|6RR Mechanism]] randomly replicates data across six hierarchical layers, dispersing redundancy across the network.


* '''6RR Process''': When a segment is flagged as high-risk or encounters an integrity failure, 6RR randomly selects nodes within the sixth layer from the originating node’s position in the network hierarchy. This random replication effectively fortifies the segment against targeted attacks, providing an unpredictable yet robust pathway for data recovery.
* '''6RR Process''': Upon repeated integrity failures, 6RR selects nodes in the sixth layer of the hierarchy for random replication, enhancing resilience.


* '''Mathematical Model of Sixth-Layer Replication''': For a node <math>v</math> in layer <math>L_0</math>, the set of sixth-layer target nodes <math>T \subset P_6(v)</math> is chosen via a pseudo-random selection from <math>S(v, 6)</math>:
 
   <math>
   <math>
   T = \text{RandomSample}(S(v, 6), k)
   T = \text{RandomSample}(S(v, 6), k)
   </math>
   </math>


   where <math>k</math> is the replication count. This model distributes data across multiple paths, enhancing resilience and providing a self-healing mechanism for compromised data segments.
   where <math>k</math> is the replication count for node <math>v</math> in layer 6, ensuring redundancy without predictable patterns.

Immune System for the Seigr Ecosystem[edit]

The Immune System within the Seigr Protocol framework is a decentralized, adaptive defense mechanism that maintains the integrity, availability, and authenticity of capsules across the Seigr network. Inspired by biological immune responses, the Immune System operates through “cells” (nodes) that autonomously detect, respond to, and repair data threats within the Seigr Urcelial-net. This system uses IPFS as its foundational network while leveraging Seigr’s unique Senary encoding and modular structures.
