01 / Capture
Select the event, outcome and necessary context. Define expected inputs separately so omissions can be assessed.
How verification works
From a selected event to an interpretable finding.
Five stages connect evidence capture to independent review.
A process alongside your existing systems.
- 01Capture selected evidence
- 02Protect the record
- 03Retain record and trust material
- 04Apply approved policy
- 05Interpret the findings
The institution defines what matters.
02 / Protect
Protect selected information with a signature so later reviewers can check for changes.
03 / Retain
Keep the record, authentic public trust material, applicable policy and available historical evidence. Do not include private signing keys in review packages.
04 / Evaluate
Use a compatible verifier and an independently approved trust basis. A package cannot grant itself authority simply by supplying a key.
05 / Interpret
Read integrity, signature, authority, time and completeness findings separately. Investigate missing or failed checks before reaching a substantive conclusion.
Technical detail, when you need it.
Review architecture, formats, verification requirements and trust boundaries in the technical area.
