MA-S2 Complete Guide — Palantir Mission Assurance Security Standard
MA-S2 완전 가이드 — Palantir 미션 보증 보안 표준
MA-S2 (Mission Assurance Security Standard), published by Palantir in May 2026, is a new bar for software supply-chain security in the AI era. It defines 4 control domains and 20 controls. It does not replace SOC 2 or FedRAMP—it layers on top of them. The full reference guide is embedded below.
MA-S2 at a glance
| Domain | Code | Controls | One-line summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous AI-augmented vulnerability scanning | CVS | 5 | Find holes continuously; auto-block Critical findings |
| Attack path modeling | APM | 4 | Model attacker chains, not isolated CVEs |
| Real-time software inventory | INV | 5 | Answer “what’s running?” in real time via SBOM + runtime |
| Autonomous remediation orchestration | ARO | 6 | Patch, rollback, and fleet deploy without human bottlenecks |
Why now: AI automates vulnerability discovery and chaining, making quarterly scans and CVSS-only triage insufficient—per Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar. Official site: ma-s2.com

Includes the architecture diagram, all 20 controls, disqualification criteria, attestation requirements, and seven procurement questions.
Relationship to existing frameworks
MA-S2 is complementary to SOC 2, FedRAMP, DISA IL5/IL6, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001. Existing frameworks ask whether basics are in place; MA-S2 adds whether you are safe in an AI-native threat landscape.
Self-attestation alone is not enough. You need supporting evidence: third-party audits, platform telemetry, architecture review, and contractual SLAs.
