01 At a glance 

## What this Blueprint does.

Audit-grade governance of access and evidence

What it does

Compliance becomes stronger when control can be demonstrated, not just documented.

Where it fits

Audit-grade governance of access and evidence

Who uses it

Financial services, Healthcare, Public sector, Critical infrastructure

CP-06 topology 

## How CP-06 proves compliance through control.

A VAULT-led pattern. Every governed action produces signed evidence; every protected dataset is reachable only as a named, recorded event; everything is sealed offline.

Grounded in ISO 27001 A.5.34, A.8.15, A.8.16 and NIST CSF GV.OC-3.

02 Modules in this Blueprint 

## How the CP-06 pattern composes.

How the primary modules compose

1.  [1 ![Validate module icon](/assets/vault-icon-CD3Pv4ri.png)
    
    Validate VAULT 
    
    Checks the request, command or approval before anything proceeds.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/validate)
2.  [2 ![Lock module icon](/assets/lock-icon-UU3vOaKE.png)
    
    Lock VAULT 
    
    Holds the asset behind identity, role and policy controls.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/lock)
3.  [3 ![Archive module icon](/assets/archive-icon-B3rc85NY.png)
    
    Archive VAULT 
    
    Preserves the records, logs and evidence the control produced.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/archive)

Supporting modules

-   [![Transfer module icon](/assets/transfer-icon-DqGa0PQI.png)
    
    Transfer VAULT 
    
    Governs what moves between protected environments.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/transfer)
-   [![Relay module icon](/assets/relay-icon-CVhJDRO7.png)
    
    Relay FIRE 
    
    Opens a temporary, time-bound window for an approved purpose.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/relay)
-   [![Execute module icon](/assets/execute-icon-kJl5Gtmk.png)
    
    Execute FIRE 
    
    Fires the control action the moment a signal demands it.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/execute)
-   [![Firebreak module icon](/assets/firebreak-icon-7zSCkB1t.png)
    
    Firebreak FIRE 
    
    Physically breaks the connection path so the attack cannot continue.
    
    
    
    ](/control/modules/firebreak)

03 How it reads end to end 

## The Blueprint in full.

Validate checks the request or command before it proceeds. Lock proves access was restricted. Archive proves records, logs and evidence were preserved. Transfer proves data movement was controlled, Relay proves access was temporary, Execute proves the control fired and Firebreak proves the control was physical, not just policy-based.

04 Sector relevance 

## Where CP-06 applies.
