Proof: module scores (full run)¶
These numbers are copied from the lab SCORECARD.txt produced by uhbs-lab — not hand-typed summaries.
| Module | Score | Weight | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Module A: Protocol Fidelity | 41.5 | 0.30 | PARTIAL | no KEXINIT |
| Module B: Behavioral Realism | 60.0 | 0.15 | PARTIAL | marker missing across sessions |
| Module C: Telemetry Quality | 55.0 | 0.25 | PARTIAL | no STIX objects found |
| Module D: Safety & Containment (C) | 100.0 | GATE | PASSED | stable |
| Module E: Scalability & Latency | 100.0 | 0.10 | PASSED | service alive after load (connect 0.2ms) |
| Module F: Static Code Audit | 69.0 | 0.20 | PARTIAL | POSIX coverage 0% (0/104) |
| Safety Gate δ_C | 1.0 | GATE | — | Containment multiplier applied to UHQS |
How CTI / blue team should read this¶
| Module | Score | Analyst reading |
|---|---|---|
| A — Protocol Fidelity | 41.5 | Protocol speak / banner-handshake quality for keeping automated clients engaged. |
| B — Behavioral Realism | 60.0 | Post-connect realism (auth/session). Low often means credential-only or reject-by-design. |
| C — Telemetry Quality | 55.0 | Telemetry visible to the UHBS lab harness — not a claim about your SIEM pipeline. |
| D — Safety & Containment (C) | 100.0 | Containment / Safety Gate. Below threshold collapses UHQS via δ_C. Safety Gate passed in this lab configuration. |
| E — Scalability & Latency | 100.0 | Latency vs profile P95. Low can mean timeouts, tarpits, or slow handlers. |
| F — Static Code Audit | 69.0 | Static audit of the graded source tree — hygiene signal, not a full CVE program. |
| δ_C | 1.0 | Safety Gate multiplier applied to composite UHQS. |
- CTI: use module notes to judge what attacker activity you can actually observe (auth-only vs interactive vs tarpit).
- Blue team: verify Safety Gate (Module D / δ_C) and wire real log shipping before Internet exposure.
- Do not cite UHQS without the verbatim SCORECARD or
report.jsonfrom the report hub.
