Trust Signals is the credibility layer of Passport Intelligence. It tells operators how likely recent scan activity is to be real, intentional, and customer-driven — and gives them the evidence to investigate when it isn’t.

The Trust Score

The Trust Score is a composite, brand-scoped indicator that summarises the credibility of recent scan activity. A lower score indicates activity worth reviewing; a higher score indicates that recent activity is consistent with normal customer behaviour.

The score is:

  • Composite — built from multiple independent signals
  • Explained — every score is accompanied by a component breakdown
  • Refreshed continuously — recomputed on a near-real-time cadence
  • Operator-actionable — authorised operators can manually trigger a recompute

Signal Types

The Trust Score is informed by signals such as:

SignalWhat it indicates
Post-revocation scanActivity against passports that have been revoked
Cross-country short windowThe same identity scanning across countries within a short time window
VPN / proxy scanScans originating from networks commonly used to mask origin
Scan spikeSudden, atypical bursts of activity against a product or passport
High-risk ASNActivity from network ranges with elevated risk profile
Bot pressurePatterns consistent with automated rather than human interaction

Each signal is annotated with a severity level — info, review, elevated, or high — to help operators triage.

Signal Breakdown

Every Trust Score is paired with a breakdown of contributing signals. This is deliberate: scores without explanation are not actionable. The breakdown shows:

  • which signals are currently active
  • their severity
  • their contribution to the overall score
  • the underlying evidence

Evidence-Led Investigation

Operators can drill into any signal to inspect the events that generated it. The investigation drawer brings together:

  • the signal type and severity
  • the events that triggered it
  • relevant identity context (product, passport, batch, lot)
  • linked lifecycle and scan history

This makes Trust Signals an investigation tool, not just a scoring tool.

Network and Bot Awareness

Trust signals are interpreted with awareness of network context (e.g. VPN, proxy, high-risk ASN) and patterns consistent with automated traffic. This allows Passport Intelligence to differentiate between unusual but legitimate activity (such as a viral product moment) and activity that warrants review.

Refresh and Recency

Trust signals recompute on a near-real-time cadence as new activity arrives. Authorised operators (Owner, Admin) can also trigger an on-demand recompute from the Trust tab.

Coming Soon

Additional refinements are planned, including richer cross-signal correlation and confidence-weighted geolocation interpretation. These extend the existing foundation rather than replace it.
