Authorization first
We require documented permission from the lawful system owner before scanning, accessing, or testing approved systems.
Security & trust
Security and trust controls for authorized cybersecurity assessments.
SCANNER is built around authorization, accountable procedures, and evidence-led decisions. We make the operating boundaries clear before cybersecurity assessment activity begins.
Our operating commitments
Controls that keep defensive work responsible.
Confidential handling
Assessment information is handled as sensitive business material and shared only through agreed engagement channels.
Controlled procedures
Scope, exclusions, timing, escalation contacts, and stop conditions are agreed before activity begins.
Human oversight
People review assessment context and potential findings before they become reported priorities or remediation recommendations.
Secure data handling
Evidence is useful only when its context is protected.
Evidence collection is limited to what is appropriate for the agreed assessment objective. We retain the connection between an observation, its approved target, collection context, and review status so teams can evaluate it responsibly.
Purpose-limited collection
We collect and retain assessment materials in line with the defined objective and agreed scope.
Controlled access
Access to engagement information is limited to authorized people supporting the assessment and agreed customer stakeholders.
Evidence integrity
Supporting materials are organized so reported observations remain traceable to their assessment context.
Defined retention
Retention and disposal expectations are set through the engagement, not left to assumption.
Responsible disclosure
Clear communication when a concern needs attention.
When an authorized assessment identifies a potentially material observation, SCANNER uses agreed communication paths to help the right customer contacts review it promptly. We do not publicize customer findings or share confidential assessment information without authorization.
01
Agree the contact path
Identify security, technical, and executive contacts plus an escalation route before assessment activity starts.
02
Review the evidence
Validate the observation within the approved scope and document its context, limitations, and urgency.
03
Notify through agreed channels
Share relevant information with designated customer contacts so they can make informed decisions.
04
Support follow-through
Provide prioritized remediation direction and, where separately authorized, verification of corrective work.
Important boundaries
What SCANNER does not promise.
No guarantee of complete security
No assessment can establish that every weakness has been found or that future compromise is impossible.
No activity beyond approved scope
We do not extend testing to systems, methods, or timeframes that have not been explicitly authorized.
No unreviewed tool output as a verdict
Automated signals support the work, but they do not replace context, validation, or customer decision-making.
