Research security and export control. One defensible methodology.
Vigilarx is the system of record for both NSPM-33 four-pillar compliance AND the full EAR / ITAR / OFAC export-control workflow. Every surface anchored in named federal authorities.
The four people who own this file.
Research Security Officer (RSO)
Roster screening, Co-author Network sweeps, four-pillar Command Center, signed RSP cert, audit packet — built around what RSOs actually do day-to-day.
Export Control Officer (ECO)
FRE/TCP triage, ECCN classification helper, deemed-export scholar vetting, country/embargo screening, Affiliates Rule cascade, annual TCP review.
General Counsel
Tamper-evident audit trail, statutory awareness panel at signing, source-version capture per claim, SHA-256 attestation, Penalty/Statute Reference Library.
Research VP / Provost
Institution-level posture: pillar attestations rolled to a single defensible status, FCA defensibility argument, federal-deadline tracking.
Six core surfaces.
Search Person
Type a name + institution. Get a 6-section Person Report — Methodology, Identity, Verdict, Why-flagged (with negative-finding documentation when CLEAR), Cited publications, Provenance — every claim anchored to a watchlist evidence row from one of 14 federal authorities.
Co-author Network
Sweep a faculty member's publication co-authors against the same 14 watchlists. Per-node screening + network-level synthesis identifies signal-density-gated affiliations (the matcher fix that separates slide 9 from slide 10 in the Marcus deck).
Compliance Command Center
Cybersecurity, Foreign Travel, Research Security Training, Export Control. Each pillar reflects operational state — not just attestations. A 7-step first-90-days workflow tour anchors the home page so a brand-new RSO knows what to do on day one.
Cert Signing
Four-step modal flow produces an RSP cert PDF with per-pillar APPROVED stamps and Exhibits A (signatory background), B (methodology snapshot), C (audit trail snapshot) — the same defensibility shape that survives motion-to-strike challenges in adjacent legal-tech.
Audit Trail
Every screening, upload, attestation, and decision logged with the exact watchlist version in effect at that moment. Friendly action labels, human-readable entity names, exportable as an HTML or PDF audit packet.
Workflow Tour
A guided tour for new RSOs: institution metadata → roster import → screening sweep → pillar attestation → cert signing → audit packet generation → continuous monitoring. Each step renders with WHAT / WHY / HOW + the artifact it produces.
Seven sub-features. End-to-end workflow.
From plain-English project description to signed audit-ready artifacts. Every determination cites a verifiable CFR / USC row.
Project Triage
FRE / TCP / License determination wizard. Plain-English description in. Cited verdict + signed PDF out.
TCP Builder
10-section guided plan generation. Personnel, scope, controls. Supersede chain on amendment. Signed PDF.
ECCN Classification Helper
AI-assisted classifier ranked against the full Commerce Control List + USML. Confidence floors enforced.
Foreign National Vetting
Per-scholar 7-status workflow with deemed-export decisioning. Tamper-evident affirmation hash.
Affiliates Rule Cascade
50%-rule cascade walked deterministically against curated entity ownership graph. Five verdicts.
Country / Embargo Screening
Travel + shipping country gate. NO_GO for embargoed destinations. LICENSE_REQUIRED with cited authority.
Annual TCP Review + Penalty Library
365-day timer with T-30 / T-7 / T-0 nudge cadence. Mark Reviewed extends supersede chain.
