Per the COHESION certification standard §8.5, there are two assurance levels. Both produce the same JIS methodology; they differ in verification rigor and regulator acceptance.
You connect a delivery surface (webhook, audit-log connector, or SDK) and sign a written data-accuracy declaration. COHESION computes the JIS from your supplied data. The Self-Reported COHESION seal is issued.
We confirm by email; no card required to start a Self-Reported pilot.
All Self-Reported requirements plus a third-party body (Big-4 audit firm, accreditation body, or notified body) co-signs the data feed and the assurance statement. Suitable for regulator-binding attestation. Requires twelve months of Self-Reported operation OR a regulator demanding third-party verification.
