## Observation 004: Session-access audit format: not yet specified; Queen's 72-hour deadline at risk

**Type:** anomaly
**Severity:** sev2
**Time window:** 2026-05-05T14:47:00Z — 2026-05-05T15:17:00Z

**Symptom:**

Queen ruling 002 requires investigation of whether the 4,127 attempted credentials resulted in any successful breaches. Investigation requires: 'for each successful session token issued during the attack window, what data did that session access?' The audit trail exists (Tweedledum built it), but the audit *format* — what logs the Queen can read, what fields they contain, what retention window — is undefined. Queen cannot answer the ruling requirement without specifying the format first. Tweedledum cannot instrument the right hooks without knowing what format the Queen needs to read. The 72-hour GDPR notification deadline begins when the attack was detected (T+0: 2026-05-05T14:23). We are now T+24 minutes. Without the format specified and the hooks deployed within the hour, the investigation will incomplete.

**Affected scope:**

GDPR breach notification compliance. Scope: 47 locked accounts (confirmed attacked). Risk: inability to answer 'how many breaches actually occurred?' and 'what was exposed?' by the 72-hour deadline.

**Evidence:**
- Queen ruling 002: 'Investigate whether any of the 4,127 attempted credentials succeeded; rule on GDPR breach notification if yes.'
- Queen ruling 002, 'Residual Risk' section: 'session audit trails must be complete enough to answer what did this session access? for any future breach investigation.'
- auth_service.py audit_session_access() function (lines 172-187): accepts `session_token, request_path, resource_id` but logs nowhere. No format specified.
