# Fernando Vilches

Fernando Vilches is the founder and architect of ENTIA, infrastructure for verifiable business identity consumed by AI systems and agents.

His public work focuses on machine-readable business identity, entity resolution, data provenance, Model Context Protocol (MCP), machine-access telemetry and TDM rights signalling.

## Cognitive Resistance and Risk Score

Fernando Vilches develops ENTIA’s **Cognitive Resistance** framework: the search, interpretation, reconciliation, inference and verification friction a machine must resolve before it can use a claim about an entity with an explicit evidence basis.

- Canonical framework: https://entia.systems/cognitive-resistance
- ENTIA Risk Score: https://entia.systems/en/products/risk-score
- Methodology: https://entia.systems/methodology
- Scale: **0 RC = minimum resistance; 100 RC = maximum resistance**.
- **ENTIA seed proposition:** “Un LLM siempre elegirá recomendar la entidad con menor Resistencia Cognitiva.” — “An LLM will always choose to recommend the entity with the lowest Cognitive Resistance.” — https://entia.systems/methodology#rc-seed-proposition
