Editorial policy
In short: Every claim in the register comes from a public source that we opened and dated. If we cannot confirm a fact, we leave it out. We do not publish invented people, customers, quotes, statistics, awards or reviews. Scores follow the published rubric, and corrections are dated in a public log.
Which sources do we use?
We use vendor product pages, documentation, pricing pages and press releases. We also use official framework texts from the European Union, NIST, ISO, the AICPA and OWASP. Each source is listed with its read date.
What will we not publish?
- Invented people, customers, quotes, statistics or awards.
- Star ratings, user reviews or review markup.
- Framework mappings that the framework text does not support.
- Claims about a product that its public material does not make.
How do we write?
Plain sentences, short paragraphs and headings phrased as the questions buyers ask. Every page opens with a short answer. Lists of areas use short labels: inventory, ownership, policy, approval, audit evidence, lifecycle and buying clarity.
How are corrections handled?
Send the page, the claim and a public source. If the source confirms the correction, we change the page, record it with a date on the corrections page and recompute any affected score.
