Validation Gate

The Validation Gate is the quality checkpoint between scanner output and final report. Every HIGH and CRITICAL finding must pass through TOKAMAK before it reaches the report.

Gate Process

1. Scanner submits finding → Gate intercepts
2. Finding severity checked → HIGH/CRITICAL flagged for validation
3. TOKAMAK executes PoC in sandbox
4. Pass → Finding included in report, cryptographically signed
5. Fail → Finding downgraded or removed

Benefits

• Zero false positives on HIGH/CRITICAL findings
• Cryptographic proof for every reported finding
• Audit trail — every gate decision is logged and signed
