Awarded for completing Context, Repositories and Secret Exposure to Assistants and passing its exam, demonstrating the ability to map what an assistant is configured to read, locate secrets in history, configuration and test fixtures, question a vendor precisely about transmission, retention and further use, verify exclusion rules rather than trust them, build layered detection before and after commit, and run a rotation first response to an exposure.
Certificates are designed to be checked, not just displayed.
The credential is valid for 12 months from issue. Its public page states the expiry date, and renewing means passing the current exam again — so the credential always reflects the current material.
