The six-stage method
- 01Frame the decision
Define the reader, protected outcome, trust boundary, and practical question before collecting claims.
- 02Locate primary material
Use OWASP, Android, Apple, NIST, MITRE, PCI SSC, official regulations, and originating project documentation.
- 03Separate fact from analysis
Platform behavior and normative requirements are sourced; design recommendations are stated as analysis with boundaries.
- 04Write the limitation
Every control page explains bypassability, false positives, client trust, complementary controls, and failure behavior.
- 05Make it testable
Guidance names the artifact, condition, evidence, backend outcome, negative case, and version context a team should retain.
- 06Connect the curriculum
Internal links follow real decisions across threat, architecture, platform, control, implementation, testing, operations, and governance.
Review and freshness
Platform and security guidance changes. Pages show a review date, link to the live primary source, and avoid freezing volatile verdict names or policy thresholds into universal advice. Material changes to Apple, Android, OWASP, PCI, or regulations should trigger focused review.
