Conduct separate security testing for access: Which evidence is still required?
Accuracy validation and security testing answer different questions; assess access, manipulation, and adversarial inputs separately.
The question
An energy-maintenance model predicts which components need inspection. It meets its accuracy target on historical data, but the team has not tested adversarial inputs, unauthorized access, or manipulated sensor readings. Which evidence is still required?

- Lower the accuracy threshold to account for operational uncertainty.Changing the performance threshold does not generate evidence about attack resistance, access control, or manipulated sensor data.
- Conduct separate security testing for access, manipulation, and adversarial inputs. ✓Security risks require dedicated tests because predictive performance evidence does not establish resistance to attacks or compromised inputs.
- Use red-team exercises as the sole replacement for routine validation.Red teaming can expose security weaknesses, but it complements rather than replaces ordinary performance and reliability validation.
- Repeat accuracy testing on a larger historical sample.More historical accuracy evidence does not address unauthorized access, adversarial manipulation, or sensor-integrity threats.
The trap
Ask whether the evidence tests model quality under normal use or resistance to hostile conditions. How to remember it
Accuracy validation and security testing answer different questions; assess access, manipulation, and adversarial inputs separately.
