TRUST CENTER.CONTROL BEFORE COLLECTION.

The Trust Center explains how VEXTRACE scopes authorized work, handles information, uses analytical automation and separates professional credentials from institutional certifications.

Operating controls

Controls are adapted to the engagement, data classification and applicable legal requirements.

Scope

Rules of engagement

Authorized targets, locations, systems, time windows, prohibited actions and escalation paths are recorded before operational work begins.

Data

Minimization and retention

Collection is limited to the mission objective. Retention and deletion periods are defined by contract, legal obligation and evidentiary need.

Analysis

AI-assisted, human-controlled

Automation may accelerate classification, extraction and correlation, but material judgments and client-facing conclusions remain subject to human review.

Evidence

Provenance and traceability

Relevant sources, collection times, transformations and analytical notes are preserved to support verification and audit.

Access

Least privilege

Case access should be limited by role, mission and need-to-know. Production client access requires authenticated and audited controls.

Disclosure

Responsible reporting

Security findings are handled through coordinated disclosure, client authorization and contractual communication channels.

02

Certifications and standards — accurate representation

The scope of every credential should be stated clearly.

Company certifications

Institutional status

Only certifications formally issued to the legal entity should be represented as company certifications. Scope and validity should be confirmed in the commercial proposal.

Professional credentials

Individual competence

Professional certifications validate the knowledge or examination status of named practitioners and must not be presented as institutional certification.

Methods and references

Framework alignment

References to MITRE ATT&CK, PTES, OWASP, NIST or ISO describe methodological alignment unless an active certification explicitly states otherwise.

Program membership

NVIDIA Inception

Vextrace is a member of NVIDIA's Inception Program for Startups — a startup support program, not a technical certification. It is represented here as a partnership, distinct from the certifications above.

Trust resources

This public Trust Center is an operational summary, not a substitute for a signed NDA, data-processing agreement, rules of engagement or legal advice. Contract-specific controls prevail.
