Operational test
Teams can point to a concrete example that demonstrates signal credibility in practice.
Use this test to validate operational readiness.
Pair this test with the minimum evidence criteria to capture both qualitative and quantitative signals.
- Evidence artifact: Artifact documenting how Signal Credibility is expected, enforced, or governed.
- Behavior signal: Observed behavior showing Signal Credibility in practice during real use or drills.
- Metric signal: Metric tracked to monitor Signal Credibility performance over time.
The trustworthiness of alerts, metrics, and reports used to govern a system. High signal credibility pairs transparent sampling, explainability for accountability , and human testimony so warnings trigger action instead of alert fatigue or dismissal. Targets & breach behavior. Measurement window: weekly precision/recall review; monthly audit. Target / floor / ceiling: target ≥ 0.85 precision, floor ≥ 0.70, ceiling false-positive rate ≥ 0.40. Owner: Traceable Ownership (must have). Breach action: pause dependent automation, recalibrate models, or require human confirmation. Public surface: published signal health via receipt, time transparency , and decision artifacts .
