Execution-Time Evidence Objects (ETEOs): Audit-Defensible, Non-Repudiable Execution Evidence
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This technical specification defines Execution-Time Evidence Objects (ETEOs), a cryptographic standard for generating contemporaneous, non-repudiable proof that regulated acceptance criteria were satisfied at execution time.ETEOs eliminate reliance on post-hoc narratives, reconstructed logs, or discretionary attestations by binding execution, acceptance criteria, and authority into a machine-verifiable evidence object generated during the execution interval.The specification is intended for use by General Counsel, auditors, regulators, sureties, and payment or authority gatekeepers evaluating audit defensibility, settlement finality, reinstatement decisions, and regulatory compliance across high-risk and regulated workflows.Contact: [email protected]
