How to read this

State pages are summaries, not scores

State pages help make recurring public signals easier to inspect. They do not rank domains, assess organisations or claim complete namespace coverage.

Panel-based

Counts describe the curated .auDO observation panel, not every domain in the .au namespace.

Signal-led

Each State view summarises public DNS, RDAP, mail, registrar or provider signals that can be observed externally.

Not assessment

State pages are not rankings, risk scores, compliance findings or evidence of compromise.
