This section lists the sources cited throughout the book. The numbered source index, ordered by source number, is the canonical bibliography: every inline citation of the form (N, author or organisation, year) links to the entry with that number. The index is grouped by category so that readers can locate European legislation, frameworks, threat assessments and practitioner literature quickly.
Entries 1 to 81 were carried over, without their back-links, from the bibliography of AI Blue (Book 8); the access dates recorded there are kept and every entry is re-verified with scripts/verify_sources.py before release. Sources that no chapter of this book cites are removed by scripts/renumber_sources.py --apply before merge, and the new sources of this book are added in the reserved ranges recorded in HANDOVER.md.
Inline citations give the source number, the author or organisation, and the year, for example (9, MITRE, n.d.), and link to the entry here. Where an author is named in the sentence, the citation carries the year. Each chapter closes with a ## Sources section that lists the works it cites, using the same numbering as this bibliography. New sources are appended to the appropriate category with the next free number; existing numbers are never reused.

About AI Purple
AI Purple is Book 9 of The Transformed Architecture. It takes the loop between the red team and the blue team as its subject and asks what happens when AI sits on both sides of the table: the five stages of the loop (target, emulate, observe, improve, verify), rules of engagement and safe emulation, continuous emulation, the independence principle, coverage as a claim that needs evidence, the loop's own AI and how to defend it, operating models, decision rights, regulation, and the people involved, for European enterprises and public authorities.
It builds on the conclusions of Architecture as Code, AI Governance, AI Platform and Security, AI Red Team, AI Threat, The Transformed Security Architect, AI Boss and AI Blue.
Chief information security officers, heads of security operations, red-team leads, penetration testers, SOC managers, detection engineers, purple-team coordinators and incident commanders, security and AI architects, boards and management bodies, procurement leads, works councils and unions, data protection and audit functions, and public-sector leaders.
