## Definition
Auditable intelligence fusion combines cross-source correlation with a durable record of who accessed data, under what authority, for what investigative purpose, and what action followed.
## Chronological Proximity
It became central to Palantir's post-9/11 architecture after TIA exposed the political volatility of broad correlation without a trusted operational interface.
## Relational Proximity
[[wiki/Clearance-Governed Correlation|Clearance-governed correlation]] limits what each user can see, while the [[wiki/Palantir Ontology|Ontology]] preserves objects, relationships, provenance, and actions.
