Terms and Disclaimers

These terms cover your use of the AI Defense Matrix Catalog. They state who operates the site, what the content is, and what we do and do not promise. By using the site, you agree to them.

Who Operates This Site

Zeltser Security Corp and Cyber Defense Matrix LLC operate the AI Defense Matrix Catalog. The AI Defense Matrix framework that the catalog builds on is by Lenny Zeltser and Sounil Yu. To reach the operators, use the contact information at zeltser.com for Zeltser Security Corp, or message the Cyber Defense Matrix page on LinkedIn for Cyber Defense Matrix LLC.

Informational Use Only

The catalog describes security products for AI, using details from public sources. It is a research aid. It is not professional, security, legal, or purchasing advice. Inclusion of a product is not an endorsement, and the absence of a product is not a judgment about it. Verify any detail you plan to act on against the vendor's current materials. You do not form an advisory, consulting, or other professional relationship with the operators by using the site.

Sourced Details and Editorial Judgment

Each entry cites the public source for every detail, along with the date of the check. The matrix coverage cells and the Primary, Secondary, and Adjacent labels are our editorial judgment, based on those cited sources. They are opinions about how central an asset is to a product, and reasonable people can weigh the same sources differently.

The catalog does not claim to list every qualifying product. A coverage cell describes capabilities that a product's public sources document. It is not a promise that the product defends that asset in your environment, and a missing product or cell is not a finding about anything.

Automated Research

AI tooling helps build the catalog. It gathers details from public sources, summarizes them, and drafts entries and coverage placements. Catalog content may appear without human review. Some field values carry an Agent tag, which means an automated check compared the value with its cited page. The tag does not guarantee the value is correct, and a missing tag does not mean a maintainer reviewed the value.

The tooling can make errors of fact, context, or interpretation, and errors may remain in published entries. We do not test products hands-on, and we do not independently validate vendor claims. Entries may change when updates come to our attention, on no fixed schedule.

No Warranties

The catalog is provided "as is" and "as available." We disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We make no warranty that an entry is complete, current, or correct. Products change, vendors update their claims, and sources can be wrong. We also make no warranty about third-party sources or the output of automated analysis. We may change or remove catalog content, or suspend or discontinue the site, at any time.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Zeltser Security Corp, Cyber Defense Matrix LLC, and the contributors are not liable for any damages that arise from using this site or relying on its content. That exclusion covers direct, indirect, incidental, and consequential damages, regardless of the theory of liability, and even if we were advised that such damages were possible. If a court does not allow the exclusion in full, the total liability of the operators and the contributors, in the aggregate, will not exceed one hundred US dollars. These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. If you are dissatisfied with the site, your remedy is to stop using it.

Third-Party Sites and Content

Entries link to vendor pages, press coverage, and other external sites that we do not control. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or practices, and their own terms and privacy policies apply to your visits there. A link is not an affiliation with the destination or an endorsement of it.

Community Contributions

Catalog entries include material that community members submit through the public data repository. We decide whether and how to incorporate each contribution. The data repository's CONTRIBUTING terms govern community submissions, including the Developer Certificate of Origin sign-off and license requirements. If these terms and the contributing terms describe the license differently, the contributing terms govern the contribution.

Using the Catalog in Your Work

You may share and adapt the content for non-commercial purposes under the license below. When you do, do not present inclusion, coverage cells, or the Primary, Secondary, and Adjacent labels as an endorsement, a certification, or a ranking by us or by the AI Defense Matrix authors.

Corrections and Vendor Responses

We distinguish factual errors from disagreement with editorial judgment. We may correct a factual error when we can verify it, and disagreement alone does not require us to change an editorial judgment. Making a correction or other change does not by itself mean the original content was false, defamatory, or otherwise improper.

To suggest a correction, open an issue or pull request in the data repository, following CONTRIBUTING. A vendor may also submit a short response for its entry, which the maintainer may publish verbatim, as described in GOVERNANCE. A published vendor response is the vendor's statement. We do not endorse or verify it. Treat anything you submit to the public data repository as public. Do not include confidential or proprietary information in a correction or vendor response. For legal notices, use the contact information at zeltser.com or the Cyber Defense Matrix page on LinkedIn.

Trademarks

Product and company names and trademarks are the property of their owners. The catalog uses them nominatively, to identify the technologies it describes.

License and Copyright

Catalog content is © 2026 Zeltser Security Corp, Cyber Defense Matrix LLC, and contributors, licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0. The license permits non-commercial use with attribution. The license covers the rights we and the contributors hold. It does not cover third-party trademarks, logos, or quoted material. For commercial use, contact the operators for permission.

Governing Law and Venue

To the extent permitted by applicable law, these terms and any dispute with the operators arising from the site or its content are governed by New York law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any such dispute must be brought exclusively in the state courts located in New York County, New York, or the federal courts located in the Southern District of New York. Each party consents to the jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

Privacy

This site sets no cookies and has no accounts. It does not ask you for personal data. Your browser stores one value on your device, the light-or-dark theme choice. The hosting provider may keep standard server logs of requests.

Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms as the site evolves. Changes take effect when posted. This version took effect on July 28, 2026.

Severability

If any part of these terms turns out to be unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect.
