Test.

THE AUTHORITY TEST

The simulation begins when this control surface enters view.

SIMULATION BOUNDARY

No real company, bank, customer or documented incident is depicted. Presence complements—not replaces—existing banking, identity, compliance and dual-control procedures.

WHAT THE TEST IS — AND IS NOT

Presence does not decide whether the email is real.

It requires the claimed authority to be established before consequence. Existing controls remain necessary and continue to do the work they were designed to do.

01 / AUTHENTICATION

Who operated the account?

The simulated bank can reliably authenticate Anna Keller and her approved corporate session.

02 / AUTHORITY

Whose decision caused the action?

The workflow still lacks a trustworthy connection to the executive authority claimed in the instruction.

03 / PRESENCE

What may proceed?

Presence adds a bounded control connecting principal, authority, transaction context and consequence.

FROM SIMULATION TO CONTROL

Authority should become explicit
before consequence.
