Custodis
“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
— Juvenal · Satire VI

The watch never ends.

Custodis continuously surveys your internet-facing estate, grades it A–F across eight risk categories, and shows you exactly why — check by check, asset by asset.

How the watch works
I.

Survey

The herald rides out.

Passive discovery: certificate transparency logs, DNS. We map every subdomain, certificate, and service you forgot you had — without touching your servers.

II.

Judge

Every check, written law.

A documented pipeline of checks — TLS, DNS, mail, headers — each with a defined severity and penalty. Deterministic, reproducible, no black box.

III.

Record

Entered in the ledger.

Findings with evidence, a 0–900 score with full history, and alerts when something changes in the night.

Every penalty, shown in full.

No vibes, no vendor magic. Each failing check contributes a penalty you can audit down to the arithmetic:

CheckSevMathPenalty
1ENC-001 · TLS 1.0 supportedHIGH6 × 1.13 × 3.00−20.4
2DNS-004 · DMARC policy "none"MED3 × 1.27 × 1.00−3.8
3APP-001 · Missing CSP headerMED3 × 1.05 × 2.32−7.3
penalty = severity × age × scope
severity: CRIT 10 · HIGH 6 · MED 3 · LOW 1 — age: grows to ×1.5 over 90 days — scope: log₂ of affected hosts
“Same assets, same checks, same score. Deterministic by design.”

FIG. I — THE KEEPER OF THE LEDGER
The oath of the order

Every claim cited.
Every score earned.

Scores on Custodis are never assigned by hand, estimated by a model, or adjusted for commercial convenience. They are computed — by a documented pipeline of checks, each with a written definition, a fixed penalty, and stored evidence.

When your grade moves, you can trace the movement to the exact check, on the exact host, at the exact timestamp. That is the whole product.

No evidence, no claim.
Same asset state, same score. Always.
Passive first. Active only with your consent.
