How we verify and rate alerts
Verification comes first
- First-party evidence: a regulator, official advisory, the vendor's own notice or status page, or a legal filing.
- Independently corroborated: at least two reputable outlets that reported it separately.
- Unverified reports: we may track them, but we never send them as verified alerts.
Verification status is shown separately from severity. A severe claim with weak evidence stays unverified. "Verified, first-party" means we checked the primary source page itself; it does not mean we independently confirmed every claim in it.
Severity levels
Severity is RedAiLert's editorial assessment. We weigh impact, how many people or businesses are affected, how urgent it is, whether there is a clear action, and how strong the evidence is.
- Critical:
- confirmed, serious harm or exposure that is spreading, with action needed now.
- High:
- confirmed risk to data, money or safety with a clear step to take soon.
- Moderate:
- a real change or problem worth reviewing, with limited or indirect impact.
- Informational:
- useful to know; no action expected.
A change in a vendor's wording alone does not mean there was a breach. More on how we track
