# Security practice and authority vocabulary

Versioned SEC-DSM and Mode of Authority documents.

## Reuse boundary

Normative practice; no runtime control or certification.

## Supported use cases

- U01: Architect composes a security deployment from explicit owner contracts and case types
- U07: Owner inventories, rotates, revokes and detects exposure of credentials
- U10: Operator recovers identity, custody or data with independently held recovery material
- U14: Framework adopter validates and reuses selected contracts, tools and reference compositions

## Evidence and integration

- [SCOPE.md](../../SCOPE.md)
- [infospace/standards/devops-secrets-management/SecurityCanonDevOpsSecretsManagementStandard.md](../../infospace/standards/devops-secrets-management/SecurityCanonDevOpsSecretsManagementStandard.md)

Assessment: CUST-WP-0081, 2026-10-14. Relations identify interfaces to compose; they do not certify native integration. Existing external evidence levels are retained where present. New entries use conservative C1/R0 until consumer assessment exists.
