Proof of Behavior Paradigm

Π_behavior = Π_code ⊗ Π_syscall ⊗ Π_mem

TKO vs AWS Nitro Enclaves

Category	AWS Nitro	TKO PoB	Winner
Isolation	VM-level, proprietary	SGX memory + TPM platform	TKO
Root of Trust	AWS-signed, closed	Open hardware, verifiable	TKO
Privacy	Raw disclosure	ZK-compressed <500B	TKO
Portability	AWS-only	Any SGX/TPM hardware	TKO
Proof Size	~Few KB	<500B ZK-compressed	TKO
Schema	Fixed CBOR	Semver Protobuf	TKO

Key Advantages

Composable Trust — Merkle components allow independent verification and fine-grained policies.
Privacy Leadership — ZK layer enables verifiable claims without exposure.
Hardware Portability — Functors enable SGX today, AMD SEV/ARM CCA tomorrow.
IoT & Edge Superiority — Compact proofs, low-power generation.
Post-Quantum Ready — Falcon/Dilithium signatures, lattice-based ZK planned.

Design Philosophy

TKO decomposes trust into orthogonal, composable proofs. No monolithic TEE assumptions. Evidence is a first-class artifact, not a vendor byproduct. The functor architecture enables compile-time dependency injection with minimal TCB — just the OCaml runtime and selected backends.
