Technical details & what we don’t check

Claims about protection come from the maker. The trust score checks public signals, not effectiveness.

We automatically check origin, code patterns, licence, maintenance and reachability — again every day. We do not check whether the software fits your purpose, how it handles your data, or whether it works without errors. Last checked 11 hours ago. How OROBO checks
