# Interface Governance Interface governance is the control exercised through what a user can see, select, reach, authorize, dismiss, or recover in a presented environment. ## Security significance Presentation can hide deeper state, privilege, enrollment, routing, or policy. An interface may accurately summarize resident authority, incompletely expose it, or constrain action through [[Algorithmic Friction]]. ## Archival rule Visible interface state is evidence of presentation, not automatic proof of the underlying actor, configuration, or authorization. Correlate it with logs, policy, account state, and lower-layer identifiers. ## Relationships [[Identity Beneath Presentation]] · [[Launcher Governance]] · [[Accessibility as Alternate Systems Interface]] · [[Observability Asymmetry]].
