ARC-002 / SOURCE CONTROLLED

Secure hybrid transition pattern

Preserve controlled legacy evidence while replacement capability is built in risk-ranked waves.

● CONTROLLEDOWNER / SYSTEM 8REVIEW / MONTHLY
01

Intent

  • Avoid a big-bang cutover when legacy behaviour is poorly documented.
  • Separate continuity requirements from target-platform selection.
  • Minimise write paths into unsupported components.
02

Control boundary

  • Pre-authentication, least privilege and explicit conditional access.
  • Read-only or narrowly controlled legacy publication where justified.
  • Records retention, audit and data-export controls.
  • Defined expiry date and exit path for every continuity component.
03

Transition sequence

  • Stabilise and capture evidence.
  • Build the target domain model and highest-risk proof.
  • Migrate capability by bounded workflow.
  • Reconcile history, archive and retire the legacy path.
