PAI-SF / 8 / PAI-SF-IRP-001

Physical Containment Playbook

Objective

Provide predefined, tested procedures for physically containing an active incident, distinct from digital containment.

Control / requirement

Playbooks per system class with defined roles and physical isolation steps (e.g., actuator isolation, area securing).

Applicability

All physical AI systems with a plausible physical- consequence incident scenario.

Expected evidence

Playbook documentation; tabletop exercise records. [T2]

Assurance expectation

Evidence of tabletop exercises actually exercising the physical steps, not only reviewing the document.

Dependencies

PAI-SF-SAF-001 (safe-state as the first containment action).

Exclusions

Not applicable where physical containment is fully automated with no procedural/human step.

Maturity / conformance relevance

Expected at all conformance levels.

Ecosystem relationship

Extends AI-IRF™'s general response procedures with physical-AI-specific containment; PAI-SF™ does not duplicate AI-IRF™'s general incident management.

Domain
