# Adversarial Analysis Adversarial analysis studies how a capable opponent could exploit assumptions, interfaces, incentives, dependencies, or response patterns. In communication systems, it considers impersonation, distortion, suppression, amplification, channel capture, provenance corruption, and strategic provocation. The purpose is resilience, not reflexive suspicion. Analysis should use explicit scenarios and evidence, separate capability from attribution, and test whether benign explanations fit the same observations.
