A chronological record of system events used to track user actions and maintain security accountability.

Audit logging turns system activity into a verifiable trail of accountability. It captures essential telemetry: user IDs, source IPs, and specific API response codes. Engineering teams use tools like AWS CloudTrail or Datadog to monitor high-stakes actions (privilege escalations, database deletions, or PII access). This data serves as the primary evidence for SOC2 audits and post-incident forensics. By storing immutable logs for 90 days or longer, you ensure the ability to reconstruct any sequence of events and prove exactly who touched what.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Design-by-Transparency: Fixing Authority Before Execution](https://tokyo.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_LoFqvnKwFjs)

Design-by-Transparency treats governance as a design-time concern, not a post-hoc explanation. This demo shows a small, working example of how intent, authority, and stop conditions can be explicitly fixed before execution, so AI systems cannot act beyond what was deliberately allowed. Rather than focusing on model performance or prompts, the demo highlights how execution boundaries are designed, enforced, and audited upstream — before agentic behavior reaches real-world systems. The goal is to make AI behavior predictable by design, not explainable after failure.
