Each entry explains what the resource is and when it is useful, then sends you to the tool itself. {% hint style="info" %} Several of these tools live on the main initiative site or on their own dedicated sites, which remain their canonical homes. This page is the navigator: it tells you which one you need and when. {% endhint %} ## Start with the Framework


Interactive Universal DPI Safeguards Framework What it is. The full standard, explorable by responsible authority, life cycle stage, principle and risk. Generate a view for your context and download the recommendations that apply. When to use it. At any point, and especially when you need to know which safeguards apply to your role at your current stage.

## Assess where you stand


Safeguards Assessment What it is. A structured assessment of both technical adherence to the Framework and real-world impact. When to use it. To establish a baseline before design decisions are locked in, or to review an implementation already running.
Indicator Library What it is. Measurement indicators drawn from nine existing frameworks, mapped to safeguards outcomes. When to use it. When you need to measure whether a safeguard is working, not just whether it exists.

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://dpisafeguards.gitbook.io/resources-hub/implement-safeguards/additional-resources-and-information.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
