How to read State of .au
These pages use public domain-layer signals from the fixed .auDO panel. They describe visible posture and observed movement without grading, ranking or assessing organisations.
Use State views as descriptive summaries alongside reports and methodology notes.
Common questions
About State of .au
Is State of .au a whole-namespace measurement?
No. State of .au uses public domain-layer signals collected from
the fixed .auDO observation panel. Its findings describe that
selected panel, not every domain in the .au namespace.
Can I search for a particular domain here?
State views describe aggregate posture and observed change across the panel. They are not designed as an on-demand domain lookup.
For a point-in-time reading of one domain's visible public signals, use ThreatScope Check.
What do the 30-day and 90-day windows mean?
These windows summarise relevant changes observed during the preceding 30 or 90 days. They provide recent context alongside the current visible posture.
They are observation windows, not forecasts, risk scores or assessments of the organisations represented by the domains.
Published limitations
- Derived from public .auDO observations generated from the canonical observatory dataset.
- Counts describe the observed .auDO panel, not the whole .au namespace.
- Missing optional fields are counted as missing rather than inferred.
