Security is often associated with strength and independence, Independent Integration explores security in depth, and in particular investigates the relationship between what is known in systems engineering as “control points” or what can be thought of as gateways that open to allow access to the system of interest, permitting the flow of Inputs and outputs. Many people today do not monitor what they permit into their lives, they simply go through their days taking in whatever crosses their path, which changes them, affecting their outputs. XSE presents the case that in order to be a skilled systems engineer, one must exercise vigilance and be aware of what is coming into the system, and follow through with the outputs that the system should have in order to function at its optimal performance level.
Maintaining strong control of gateways that monitor inputs and outputs in any system is a fundamental aspect of security because it allows for the regulation, verification, and protection of everything that interacts with the system. Here’s how this control enhances security:
Controlling gateways is a core security practice because it enforces boundaries, protects system integrity, and ensures only safe, authorized interactions. Whether applied to digital, physical, or operational systems, gateway control is key to preventing unauthorized access, maintaining data integrity, detecting threats, and ensuring overall system resilience. By carefully monitoring and managing inputs and outputs, you create a secure environment that minimizes vulnerabilities and strengthens the system’s defenses.
Self-sustainability serves as a form of security because it enables a system or individual to function independently and remain resilient in the face of external disruptions. By relying less on outside resources or support, self-sustaining systems can better withstand potential threats, shortages, or changes in their environment. Here’s how self-sustainability contributes to security:
Self-sustainability strengthens security by creating independence, resilience, and control over resources, which reduces vulnerability to external threats, disruptions, and volatility. Whether for an individual, organization, or community, being self-sustaining builds a stable foundation that enables continuous, secure operation even when external conditions are challenging or unpredictable. In this way, self-sustainability is a powerful layer of security, fostering long-term stability, autonomy, and preparedness.
