Method changelog: every version, dated

A control set is only useful when every reader can see which version governed a result — and what changed afterwards.

Draft 0.1 — 21 September 2026

First public proposal: 24 controls across eight domains and four scored pillars. It introduces critical blockers, published test samples, independent decision review, quarterly re-checks and immediate triggers for important changes. No certificate has been issued under this draft.

How future changes will be labelled

Editorial clarifications will keep control meaning unchanged. Minor versions may add evidence guidance or tests. Major versions may change thresholds, mandatory controls or decision logic. Each entry will state its start date, transition rules and affected controls — text is never replaced silently.

What a new version means for assessed agents

An existing result stays tied to the method version printed in its report. A newer method does not automatically cancel an older result, but a new critical risk, a serious incident or an important system change can trigger early review. Transition rules will be published before any operational scheme launches.
