Cybersecurity Reimagined Part 2: Symbolic Deception and Resonance Filters (Blog 14K)
From Identity Drift to Symbolic Deception
In Blog 14J, we revealed how Shunyaya detects symbolic misalignment — not by observing spikes, but by sensing rhythm loss. Whether it’s a machine taking over a human session or a perfectly mimicked replay, Shunyaya identifies the invisible divergence.
Now we go deeper.
What happens when attackers don’t just spoof actions, but attempt to replicate the flow?
What if the mimicry becomes so perfect that it bypasses thresholds, models, and even entropy levels?
This is where Shunyaya’s extended symbolic filters enter.
How Shunyaya Handles Symbolic Deception
Shunyaya doesn’t rely on pre-learned behavior or rule sets. It listens for symbolic coherence.
In systems under deception:
To handle advanced deception, Shunyaya now uses:
Updated Shunyaya Formula (Weighted)
To detect subtle divergence, we now use a weighted symbolic entropy formula:
Entropy_t = log(Σ w_i * (x_i - x̄)^2 + 1) * exp(-λt)
Entropy at time t is calculated by:
Taking the logarithm of the sum of weighted squared deviations of each input value from the average (up to time t), plus one — then multiplying that result by the exponential of negative lambda times t.
Symbol Explanation:
By incorporating symbolic weight and time sensitivity, the system can detect lifeless mimicry, subtle distortion, or rhythm suppression — even in near-perfect behavioral imitations.
Case Study 1 — AI-Mimicked Admin Commands
An attacker uses AI to mimic a privileged user’s exact session:
[1.4, 1.1, 1.5, 1.2, 1.0]
In the spoofed version, all times are flattened to 1.2 seconds.
Applying the Formula:
Conclusion:
Although the spoofed session matches every command and time range, its rhythm is lifeless. The drop in entropy reveals forced uniformity. Shunyaya flags the deception not by value — but by breath.
This chart compares the entropy levels of a real administrator session vs. a spoofed mimic by an AI attacker. Though the actions and timings match, the spoofed session shows significantly lower entropy — revealing a loss of symbolic breath that Shunyaya can detect.
Subset Entropy — Detecting Drift Within Roles
Shunyaya also detects symbolic misalignment by applying entropy within defined identity zones.
Case Study 2 — Subset Entropy: Misaligned Process in Sysadmin Role
A system monitors three role types:
Applying the Subset Entropy Formula:
Entropy_t = log(Var(x₀:t) + 1) * exp(-λt)
Comparison:
Conclusion:
Subset entropy reveals that this process, though labeled “sysadmin,” behaves with non-human uniformity.
It doesn’t match the symbolic signature of the real role.
Shunyaya detects not the command — but the symbolic drift inside the identity zone.
Resonance Filters — The Final Defense
Even when weights and subsets align, Shunyaya uses resonance filters to validate symbolic flow.
These detect:
How to Use in Real Systems
Final Reflection — The Pulse of Symbolic Truth
You can forge behavior.
You can copy flow.
But you cannot fake symbolic breath.
Every system has a rhythm.
When that rhythm breaks — Shunyaya hears it.
It’s not about the spike.
It’s about the silence between them.
Caution
The case studies here are focused simulations designed to show how symbolic entropy can be applied in cybersecurity. For live deployments, parameter tuning and independent testing are essential.
Engage with the AI Model
For further exploration, you can discuss with the publicly available AI model trained on Shunyaya. Information shared is for reflection and testing only. Independent judgment and peer review are encouraged.

In Blog 14J, we revealed how Shunyaya detects symbolic misalignment — not by observing spikes, but by sensing rhythm loss. Whether it’s a machine taking over a human session or a perfectly mimicked replay, Shunyaya identifies the invisible divergence.
Now we go deeper.
What happens when attackers don’t just spoof actions, but attempt to replicate the flow?
What if the mimicry becomes so perfect that it bypasses thresholds, models, and even entropy levels?
This is where Shunyaya’s extended symbolic filters enter.
Shunyaya doesn’t rely on pre-learned behavior or rule sets. It listens for symbolic coherence.
In systems under deception:
- Values may remain in-range
- Timing may be replicated
- Behavior may appear identical
To handle advanced deception, Shunyaya now uses:
- Weighted Entropy — to give importance to high-sensitivity operations
- Subset Entropy — to evaluate symbolic alignment within specific roles or channels
- Resonance Filters — to detect lifeless mimicry through symbolic silence
To detect subtle divergence, we now use a weighted symbolic entropy formula:
Entropy_t = log(Σ w_i * (x_i - x̄)^2 + 1) * exp(-λt)
Entropy at time t is calculated by:
Taking the logarithm of the sum of weighted squared deviations of each input value from the average (up to time t), plus one — then multiplying that result by the exponential of negative lambda times t.
Symbol Explanation:
- x_i = the individual observed values in the time series (e.g., response times, command timings)
- x̄ = the average (mean) of all x_i values observed up to time t
- w_i = the symbolic weight assigned to each value based on its importance or criticality in the system (e.g., privileged commands receive higher weight)
- λ = the decay constant that controls how much recent behavior is emphasized over past data (default: 0.05)
- t = the current time step (or entropy evaluation point)
By incorporating symbolic weight and time sensitivity, the system can detect lifeless mimicry, subtle distortion, or rhythm suppression — even in near-perfect behavioral imitations.
An attacker uses AI to mimic a privileged user’s exact session:
- Minute 0–4 (Real Admin): [sudo, config-check, route-flush, reload, log-off]
- Minute 5–9 (Spoofed AI): [sudo, config-check, route-flush, reload, log-off]
- sudo = 0.9
- config-check = 0.6
- route-flush = 0.8
- reload = 0.7
- log-off = 0.5
[1.4, 1.1, 1.5, 1.2, 1.0]
In the spoofed version, all times are flattened to 1.2 seconds.
- Compute variance (real session):
- Variance ≈ 0.032
- Weighted entropy:
- Entropy_real ≈ log(Σ w_i * (x_i - x̄)^2 + 1) * exp(-0.05 × 9) ≈ 0.73
- Spoofed session (flat):
- Variance ≈ 0.000
- Entropy_spoof ≈ 0.42
Although the spoofed session matches every command and time range, its rhythm is lifeless. The drop in entropy reveals forced uniformity. Shunyaya flags the deception not by value — but by breath.

Shunyaya also detects symbolic misalignment by applying entropy within defined identity zones.
A system monitors three role types:
- Developer
- Tester
- Sysadmin
- Minute 0–4: [12, 13, 11, 14, 12]
- Minute 5–9: [12, 12, 12, 12, 12]
Entropy_t = log(Var(x₀:t) + 1) * exp(-λt)
- Step 1: Full window values → [12, 13, 11, 14, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12]
- Step 2: Compute variance ≈ 1.20
- Step 3: log(1.20 + 1) ≈ 0.788
- Step 4: exp(–0.05 × 9) ≈ 0.637
- Step 5: Multiply → Entropy ≈ 0.50
- Typical sysadmin entropy baseline: 0.65 – 0.9
- This session: 0.50
- Indicates over-consistency, loss of symbolic rhythm
Subset entropy reveals that this process, though labeled “sysadmin,” behaves with non-human uniformity.
It doesn’t match the symbolic signature of the real role.
Shunyaya detects not the command — but the symbolic drift inside the identity zone.
Even when weights and subsets align, Shunyaya uses resonance filters to validate symbolic flow.
These detect:
- Symbolic hesitation
- Frequency irregularity
- Entropic rebound after natural events
- Assign weights to actions or metrics by symbolic risk
- Track entropy per user, device, or function
- Apply subset entropy to roles, locations, time zones
- Monitor for:
- Unexpected dips in entropy (spoofing)
- Over-aligned sequences (flattening)
- Symbolic silence (absence of pulse)
