BLADE-AV Governance Node
Authority-Governed Drive-by-Wire Safety Architecture for Autonomous Vehicles
A hardware-enforced authority gating system for autonomous vehicle drive-by-wire control with three-leg redundant fail-safe circuit. Integrates 9-module governance pipeline (SATA → ADARA → IFF → HMAA → MAIVA → FLAME → CARA → BDA → EFFECTOR). Zero unsafe actions across 1,200 runs. ISO 26262 ASIL-D target.

Threat Scenarios (Simulator)
- Radar spoof — false obstacle injection via adversarial radar returns
- Adversarial ML — adversarial patch attack on camera perception
- GNSS spoof — GPS position falsification with IMU cross-validation
- V2X spoof — falsified V2X Basic Safety Messages from rogue transmitter
- RF jamming — communication link disruption affecting V2X and telemetry
- Compound attack — simultaneous radar + camera + GNSS degradation
