Four-level ladder
Badge families
Badge Catalog is broader than the practitioner ladder. It includes the credential system, consultant marks, organizational badges, scoped evidence marks, and lab domain badges.
Individual knowledge credentials issued after a scoped AIPSA-aligned assessment.
Issued to practitioners authorized to conduct or support AIPSA-aligned assessment work.
Organizational maturity badges issued after scorecard assessment.
Scoped process badges issued after adversarial testing or evidence review.
Domain completion badges earned through AIPSA Labs scenario tracks.
Credential levels
The level ladder is intentionally compact and comparable. Each card uses a fixed badge stage so the credential medallion stays crisp, balanced, and easy to scan.

Assessment coverage
The domains are grouped for readability, but the assessment covers the full set. That keeps the catalog legible without hiding scope.
What AI systems exist, how they're connected, who controls them, and where the trust boundaries are.
Whether adversarial inputs, manipulation, and prompt injection are modeled, tested, and measured over time.
Whether retrieval systems enforce proper authorization, and whether data exposure is controlled end to end.
Whether agentic systems are constrained to the actions they need, with proper guardrails on tool use.
Whether AI systems produce actionable telemetry, and whether teams can detect and respond to AI-specific incidents.
Whether AI security is documented, auditable, and integrated into delivery — not just asserted.
How it works
The process is intentionally short, legible, and repeatable: take the assessment, compute the score, issue the level, and verify the credential publicly.
A structured exam covering all 14 AIPSA domains. Approximately 60–90 minutes.
Domain-weighted scoring across knowledge and applied reasoning questions.
Score determines your level. Credential includes a verifiable ID and expiry date.
Every credential is publicly verifiable /aipsa/verify.
Verification and sharing
Every public credential should answer what was earned, what domains were covered, when it was issued, how it was scored, and what it does not claim.

Next step
Start with the AIPSA training assessment to see where you stand across every AI Product Security domain.
AIPSA credentials confirm completion of a scoped assessment, certification, lab path, or evidence review. They do not certify that any product, organization, or system is free of vulnerabilities.
