Correctness
Is detection accuracy measured against named ground truth?
What is correctness?
Correctness measures whether the discovery system finds real cryptographic assets while controlling false negatives, false positives and partial matches.
An inventory can look comprehensive while silently missing assets. Named corpora, independent ground truth and reproducible evaluators make accuracy claims auditable.
Questions to ask a vendor
- What corpus was used?
- Who constructed and labeled the ground truth?
- Are precision, recall and partial-match rules published per detector?
