Diffusing a root identity of an entity among association and event covenants in a multi-dimensional computing security system involves generating a first generation of diffusion of identities of entities participating in mediated association and generating a second generation of diffusion of identities of the entities through recombinant mediated association of the entities and at least one other entity. The second generation of diffusion of identities facilitates securely constraining a computing system action associated with one of the entities.
