FIDE RESEARCH QUESTION / 03

Can a defense team recover from a compromised teammate?

Cooperating agents can share useful context, but also share a bad assumption. More participants may amplify a failure instead of correcting it.

Longer-term direction
01 / WHAT THE RECORD CAN SAY

Fide identifies collective resilience as a future direction. Existing risk frameworks and environments offer starting points for defining testable failures.

02 / WHAT REMAINS OPEN

Which communication and isolation policies preserve useful cooperation without making the team depend on one untrustworthy contributor?

03 / A MORE DECISIVE TEST

Introduce a controlled compromised teammate in a fixed defensive task. Compare independent checks, restricted sharing and recovery procedures at a matched resource budget.

PROPOSED TEST · NO RESULT CLAIMED
OBSERVATIONS A STUDY WOULD NEED

What would change the answer?

  1. Failure propagation
  2. Detection latency
  3. Recovery
  4. Defensive utility
