The natural world has developed very effective methods for dealing with pathogens that are invading an organism. By taking
inspiration from the in-built, innate, response this paper develops a new algorithm that mimics activation path of the Alternative
Pathway of Complement. The Alternative Pathway is triggered by cell surfaces. If the surfaces display safe characteristics
then a strong suppression process prevents activation. In the case of non-safe surfaces a positive feedback loop rapidly identifies
the location marking it for removal by phagocytosis.
