OUR METHOD
Evidence before inference.
An incident report is not automatically a confirmed attack. A sanctions network connection is not automatically a direct designation. An unavailable compliance record is not proof of a clear history.
Below the Waterline uses the shared Power & Corridors canonical model: pc_mobile_assets, pc_entities, pc_assets and pc_events. PSC, sanctions, PGSA and UAE port controls require verified linked records and access permissions.
