What does auditability mean in SecAI+ and how is it achieved?

• A. Ability to encrypt all data.
• B. Ability to trace decisions and actions; achieved via immutable logs, data lineage, model metadata, and change management records.
• C. Ability to train models faster.
• D. Ability to erase traces easily.

Answer: (B)

Auditability in SecAI+ is about being able to trace decisions and actions in a trustworthy way, with records that show what happened, when, and by whom. This is achieved through a combination of immutable logs that provide tamper-evident records, data lineage that maps how inputs flow to outputs, model metadata that captures version, training data, and parameter context, and change management records that document who made what changes and why. Together, these elements create a traceable trail that supports accountability, debugging, compliance, and the investigation of any issues related to decisions or behaviors of the system. Encrypted data protects confidentiality but doesn’t provide a traceable history, faster model training improves performance, and erasing traces defeats the purpose of auditability.
