Put evidence behind the digital claims that matter.
DGC independently validates and verifies defined claims about digital systems, services, products, projects and organizational practices against recognized standards and specified requirements.
Clear scope. Objective evidence. Credible statements.
Designed for organizations that need customers, partners, buyers, funders or regulators to rely on a specific digital governance claim.
Clear claims. Defined requirements. Objective evidence. Public statements.
DGC connects the four elements required to turn a digital assertion into evidence that another party can understand and rely upon.
Claim
Define exactly what is being asserted about a system, service, organization, plan or outcome.
Requirements
Identify the standard, specification, framework or criteria against which the claim will be evaluated.
Evidence
Review sufficient and appropriate objective information supporting the truthfulness or plausibility of the claim.
Statement
Issue a validation or verification statement when the claim conforms with the specified requirements.
Trust grows when important digital claims can be tested.
Organizations increasingly need to demonstrate that their technology, governance and operating practices meet recognized expectations. Independent verification makes those claims clearer, more useful and trustworthy.
Confidence
Give customers, partners and other relying parties a credible basis for understanding a digital governance claim.
Practical adoption
Turn standards and policy commitments into evidence that can support procurement, implementation and oversight.
Market readiness
Help organizations demonstrate responsible practice across regulated, public-interest and international markets.
Two forms of assurance. Two distinct questions.
The appropriate assessment depends on whether the claim concerns an intended future use or an event, activity or result that has already occurred.
Is the claim plausible?
Validation confirms that requirements for a specific intended future use or projected outcome have been fulfilled.
Typical use: a project plan, proposed use, design approach or forecast
Is the claim truthful?
Verification confirms that specified requirements have been fulfilled for events, activities or results that have already occurred.
Typical use: an implemented practice, operating system, reported result or existing service
A disciplined path from scope to statement.
The methodology changes with the programme, assurance level, risk and evidence available. The path remains clear and repeatable.
Define
Confirm the claim, scope, requirements, intended users and appropriate assurance level.
Agreed assessment scope
Prepare
Identify evidence, resolve readiness gaps and assemble a structured submission.
Evidence plan and submission
Review
Evaluate sufficient and appropriate objective evidence using risk-based procedures.
Findings and decision
Issue
Complete independent review and issue the statement when requirements are met.
Statement and registry entry
Use the level of assessment the claim requires.
DGC offers focused and deeper forms of independent assurance. Both are standards-based and evidence-driven. The difference is the depth of testing and the confidence required by relying parties.
Independent review
A proportionate review of a defined claim and supporting evidence. Appropriate for focused scopes and organizations starting out.
Limited assurance | Focused evidence review | Defined scope
Independent audit
A more extensive assessment with deeper evidence testing. Appropriate where relying parties require greater confidence in the claim.
Positive assurance | Detailed testing | Risk-based procedures
Choose the programme that matches the claim.
DGC programmes are organized around the digital capability or outcome an organization needs to demonstrate. Each programme combines a defined claim, recognized requirements, an assessment methodology and a formal statement.
Responsible AI and data
Demonstrate responsible governance and stewardship for automated decision systems and data.
Cybersecurity and digital sovereignty
Show that cybersecurity controls, defence supply-chain requirements or digital sovereignty practices have been implemented.
Digital trust and digital trade
Assess digital credentials, wallets, trust services and reliable systems supporting electronic transferable records.
Public-interest and community systems
Evaluate election technology, nonprofit digital capability and responsible data use in community and human-service delivery.
A result designed to be understood and relied upon.
The outcome is tied to the specific claim, requirements, scope and evidence examined.
Defined scope
A clear record of the claim, requirements, boundaries, intended users and assurance level.
Assessment findings
Documented findings arising from the evidence review and programme methodology.
Statement
A validation or verification statement setting out the decision and the basis on which it applies.
Public recognition
A registry entry and, where provided, use of the applicable DGC trustmark.
Check an issued statement.
The registry provides a public record of DGC validation and verification statements, including the grantee, topic, scope, requirements, assessment level and issue date.
What relying parties can confirm.
- What was assessed
- The requirements applied
- The scope and assurance level
- The issue date and statement reference
Confidence depends on how the assessment is governed.
DGC applies documented quality, competence, confidentiality, risk and impartiality controls to its validation and verification activities.
Competent personnel
Assessment teams are selected for the technical and conformity-assessment competence required by the engagement.
Objective evidence
Decisions are based on sufficient and appropriate evidence gathered through defined procedures.
Independent review
The assessment decision is reviewed separately before a statement is issued.
Managed impartiality
Conflicts, commercial pressures and other threats to impartiality are identified and addressed.
Readiness work and independent assessment serve different purposes.
Organizations may prepare internally or work with an implementation provider before entering assessment. DGC assessment decisions remain separate from implementation support.
Understand requirements
Identify the standard or criteria relevant to the claim and the evidence each requirement expects.
Prepare the evidence
Use internal resources or implementation support to organize policies, records and demonstrations.
Request assessment
Confirm the claim, scope, methodology and level of assurance with DGC before the engagement begins.
Trust starts with a claim that can be proven.
Tell DGC what others need to rely on. We will help define the scope, identify the requirements and select the appropriate assessment assessment.
