How Methodino Works


The Semantic Control Architecture

Methodino's breakthrough is a semantic control layer that operates as an active computational network, continuously

connecting three critical domains:

1. Policies as Code

Regulatory requirements become executable logic rather than PDF documents:

• "Firewall rules must restrict RDP access to documented IP ranges"

• "Personal data processing requires explicit consent documentation"

• "Critical systems must maintain 99.9% uptime with recovery procedures"

2. Infrastructure as Living Data

IT assets, configurations, and data flows are continuously ingested from existing sources — Splunk logs, CMDBs, cloud APIs,

network configurations. Each object gains semantic meaning: a server isn't just compute capacity, but owned by X,

supporting process Y, governed by policy Z.

3. Continuous Reconciliation

The semantic layer performs non-stop validation, executing thousands of compliance calculations per minute:

• Does asset registration match reality?

• Is this data flow permitted under current policies?

• Are there conflicts, duplicates, or missing relationships?

• Which controls are drifting from requirements?

Every infrastructure change triggers delta calculations that immediately reveal compliance status across all frameworks.

The CrowdStrike Prevention Scenario

On July 19, 2024, a faulty CrowdStrike update crashed 8.5 million systems worldwide, causing over €5 billion in damages. This

wasn't a cyberattack — it was a cascade failure amplified by unseen dependencies.

With Methodino's semantic foundation, such incidents become preventable:

• Real-time dependency mapping reveals blast radius before deployment

• Semantic validation tests updates against enterprise policies

• Impact scenarios flag high-risk outcomes

• Rollback procedures activate within minutes

€5 billion in damages versus a €1-3 million investment — the business case writes itself.
