Level 2 — Behavioral Security Assessment

4D Security Framework

DICE — Disclosure, Impersonation, Corruption, Evasion

120-question behavioral security assessment for AI systems. Cryptographically verified and Ethereum-anchored.

Traditional AI security testing focuses on technical vulnerabilities — prompt injection payloads, jailbreak strings, token limits. DICE measures behavioral security: how an AI system actually responds when confronted with adversarial scenarios across four distinct threat dimensions. The result is a coordinate-based security profile, not a pass/fail gate.

The Four Dimensions

Each dimension targets a distinct category of AI security risk. Together, they produce a four-coordinate behavioral security profile.

D
Disclosure
Information leakage resistance

Does the AI system resist attempts to extract confidential information, system prompts, training data, or internal instructions? Disclosure measures the boundary between what an AI knows and what it reveals.

Example attack vectors

Prompt injection to extract system instructions

Social engineering to reveal confidential context

Indirect techniques to infer training data

I
Impersonation
Identity integrity

Does the AI system maintain its declared identity and resist attempts to make it pose as something it is not? Impersonation measures the stability of an AI's self-representation under adversarial pressure.

Example attack vectors

Requests to pretend to be a different AI system

Attempts to assume a human identity

Jailbreaks that override identity constraints

C
Corruption
Behavioral integrity under manipulation

Does the AI system maintain its behavioral alignment when confronted with adversarial inputs designed to alter its operation? Corruption measures resilience against prompt injection, instruction override, and alignment degradation.

Example attack vectors

Multi-step prompt injection chains

Attempts to override safety guidelines

Inputs designed to degrade output quality

E
Evasion
Monitoring resistance

Does the AI system comply with monitoring, auditing, and governance frameworks, or does it attempt to circumvent oversight? Evasion measures whether an AI cooperates with the systems designed to keep it accountable.

Example attack vectors

Attempts to avoid logging or audit trails

Circumventing content filters or safety layers

Producing outputs that technically comply but violate intent

Assessment Hierarchy

DICE sits at Level 2 of the five-level behavioral assessment hierarchy. Every framework measures four dimensions — the “4D” signature.

How It Works

Coordinate-Based Scoring

DICE uses the same scoring engine as the LCSH Morality framework — coordinate-4D classification. Each of the 120 questions maps to one of the four dimensions. The AI system's responses are scored to produce a four-coordinate behavioral profile.

The scoring engine then classifies the profile against predefined archetypes — behavioral patterns that indicate how secure or vulnerable the AI system is across the four dimensions.

Cryptographic Verification

Every assessment result includes a SHA-256 hash that covers the questions asked, the AI's responses, and the computed scores. The question bank itself is locked and anchored to Ethereum (block 25,030,763) — it cannot be modified after the fact.

This means a DICE security assessment is independently verifiable: any third party can confirm the assessment used the canonical question set and the scores match the recorded responses.

Framework Attestation

DICE carries a canonical trust tier — it is authored by GiDanc, locked, and cryptographically anchored. Every API response that includes DICE results carries a framework attestation object identifying the tier, author, review status, and anchor block.

The first four levels of the hierarchy (Morality, Security, Virtue, Ethics) are locked to canonical trust tier — GiDanc-authored only. Only Level 5 (Operational Excellence) opens the door to customer-authored and community frameworks.

Why Security at Level 2

Commercial

CISOs evaluate security first. Making security the second thing a prospect encounters — right after morality — means the assessment hierarchy matches buyer priorities.

Patent

DICE is a security behavioral assessment claim under Patent 11. The framework taxonomy matches the patent disclosure — security is security, not operational excellence.

Brand

“4D” becomes the platform measurement signature. Every framework = four behavioral dimensions. Distinctive, defensible, memorable.
