Governance Chain Integrity Monitoring Governance-chain health monitoring evaluates credential freshness, revocation propagation, trust-slope anomalies, reputation drift, and attestation-chain depth, each surfacing as a governance-chain health observation that enters lineage.Trust Slope Anomaly Detection Governance-chain health monitoring includes a trust-slope anomaly detector that watches the evolution of a device's dynamic device hash across transmissions for patterns suggesting compromise or impersonation under the governed spatial mesh of U.S. Provisional 64/049,409.Revocation Propagation Evaluation Credential revocations propagate through the mesh; health monitoring evaluates the propagation completeness and identifies revocation gaps.PUF Challenge-Response Health Verification Supply-chain provenance health monitoring includes a physical-unclonable-function (PUF) challenge-response monitor producing observations of PUF-response consistency, recorded in device lineage and composed with seal monitoring, firmware integrity, and authenticity attestation.SBOM Attestation for Software Health Health monitoring includes software bill of materials attestation. Each unit's software composition is governance-credentialed and carried in device lineage; deviations enter as supply-chain-health observations.Tamper-Evident Seal Monitoring Tamper-evident seal monitoring in the governed spatial mesh: physical seal status and PUF-response consistency enter as governance-credentialed supply-chain health observations, enabling graduated, lineage-recorded responses to detected physical tampering.Composite Fleet Health Assessment A fleet health aggregator composes per-device and per-agent health observations, PUF challenge-response consistency, SBOM attestation, and tamper-evident seal status, into governance-credentialed fleet-level health indicators with forecasting and cascade projection.Zero-Trust Device Management Health monitoring operates within a zero-trust device-management framework. Each unit's continued admissibility depends on continuous health verification; admissibility lapses remove the device from governed actuation.Regulatory Compliance Integration Health monitoring integrates with regulatory-compliance evaluation for regulated-domain deployment. Compliance-relevant health observations are signed as credentialed attestations admissible for regulatory reporting, with the governance-policy version in force recorded for audit.
