A collection of technical white papers, architectural blueprints, and security framework alignments for the Mandrel Project.

Available White Papers

Governance Maturity

A framework for evolving from Shadow AI to a high-velocity Governed Agentic Mesh.

SAIF Alignment

How Mandrel provides a direct, deterministic enforcement layer for Google's Secure AI Framework (SAIF).

Established Ecosystems

Gradual mesh adoption strategy for existing, unmanaged agent environments.

Late-Binding Harnesses

Architectural analysis of pairing network-enabled, late-binding agent runtimes with Mandrel's deterministic governance mesh.

Upcoming Alignments (Q3-Q4 2026)

  • NIST AI RMF & ENISA FAICP: Mapping Mandrel’s runtime enforcement to the “Govern & Measure” functions.
  • OWASP Agentic AI Top 10: Mitigating autonomous agent risks through token caps and egress governance.
  • MITRE ATLAS Positioning: Defending against adversarial tactics in the agentic loop.
  • ISO/IEC 42001 Certification Path: Using Mandrel as the technical evidence layer for AI management systems.
