Policy Attestation Is Really a Version-Control Problem
An attestation must remain bound to the exact policy version a person acknowledged. A later policy should not silently inherit an earlier attestation.
UD model
UDR carries the changing state and its lineage. UDS preserves an exact final state. A later amendment derives a new UDR instead of rewriting the sealed record.
Fair incumbent boundary
SharePoint and other enterprise repositories can provide version history; CLM and e-signature platforms provide mature workflow and administration. UD is intended to make identity, lineage and verification travel with the document between systems.
Current / pilot / planned
- Current: UDR revisions, UDS exact-state verification, BrowserCarrier and PDF compatibility.
- Pilot: one assisted corporate document workflow.
- Planned/commensal: broad integrations, retention enforcement and enterprise administration.
