Verifiable, on the record.

Blankstate is the independent measurement layer for interactions. The same standard we ask of the systems we observe — deterministic, honest, accountable — applies to the way we run the company. This is the single place to read what we publish, see our certification status, and request the confidential corpus under NDA.

Posture

Status quo.

The Blankstate ecosystem is operated to a control baseline aligned with ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, and NIST CSF. Controls are continuously enforced in the platform itself and continuously evidenced through audit logs, telemetry, and periodic internal review. The platform persists no personal data beyond what is structurally necessary to operate it — sign-in identifiers and user-profile records for authenticated platform users. Interaction content is processed into deterministic, projected measurements ("energy"); the original content is not persisted, and the measurements themselves carry no PII. Cloud and on-premise deployments are both available under the same architectural commitments.

Self-hosted authentication, AES-256-GCM encryption of sensitive fields, instant cross-store token revocation, and a glass-box deterministic measurement model are operative today. Continuous internal vulnerability scanning runs against every build; a formal CREST-accredited external penetration test is scheduled for 2026. Blankstate's compliance portfolio is progressively expanded in line with the company roadmap.
