AI and autonomous systems are being deployed into decisions about credit, health, infrastructure and security faster than their failure modes are understood, and general-purpose models create common dependencies across sectors. This section of the Digital, cyber and AI subsite sets records for model documentation, evaluations, incidents and deployment contexts, crosswalked to AI governance frameworks, so that risk claims about AI systems rest on documented evidence. Every artifact of the area carries a UNI (Unique Nexus Identifier), which identifies and never certifies.

Sources the area reads or proposes. Delivery follows GRIx first; a source is shown live only after an owner decision admits it for public pages.
No legal register row admits any of these sources for live display on public pages yet, so nothing is read from them here. A register row that exists records the source for the governed GRIx path; admission for public pages is a separate owner decision.

Each coupling names the mechanism that links this area to another; select a card on the canvas to trace it. Mechanisms are stated in the context bank (PROPOSED).
Fig.RUNNING marks the area you are reading; DONE an area in the same subsite, QUEUED an area elsewhere and GATE a subsite reached. Tags give reading order only, never a status. Design, not a record.
Relations are register entries (NS-14), never conformance or equivalence statements; hover or focus a relation for its meaning. Names of standards bodies and their standards belong to their stewards and are used only to identify the documents; no text of an external standard is reproduced here.

Closed or paywalled standards appear by name and link only; any compatibility profile of one is built on simulated data and kept on protected pages until an institutional arrangement with the issuing body is recorded. Nexus Standards is not affiliated with, endorsed by or certified by any standards body named here.

Test suites, conformance statements and attestations per standard; no attestation is recorded yet, and none would certify.

Pending admissionVersion and feed state per standard; every row reads source feed pending admission until a register row admits a feed.
A console computes from the registry and shows its reasons; it never decides, approves or certifies.
GCRI Canada may admit evaluation and incident records with method, version and evaluator as research evidence; GCRI Canada decides under its own evidence and research rules, and no approval is implied.
GRF may record organisations publishing model documentation on the shared profile as a dialogue item; GRF decides under its own recognition rules, and no recognition or endorsement is implied.
GRA may read AI risk-tier and evaluation records when it considers AI-dependent investments; GRA decides under its own capital-readiness rules, and no approval, rating or investment view is implied.
Each institution decides under its own rules what it reads as evidence; no pathway is an approval, a readiness statement or investment advice.
Model, evaluation, incident and deployment-context records crosswalked to AI governance frameworks.
No working group is chartered yet; a community may charter this one under NS-13 through a docket.
Peer-reviewed sources and published statistics on the publishers' own domains, as the context entry cites them. No Risk Academy faculty pathway is linked to this area yet; one is linked when a faculty publishes a pathway that fits.
Risk Academy disciplines that teach AI and autonomous systems risk standards, with their courses; the GCRI Canada, The Global Risks Forum (GRF) and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA) subsites that carry those disciplines; and the Nexus Foundry systems the standards name. Mappings are proposed for review (Risk Academy standards map, 2026-10-17); a link says a page on the same subject exists, never an endorsement or a conformance statement; framework names in course titles are named and linked, never reproduced.
Propose a change, join the working group or name a source. Area entries are PROPOSED content for the Nexus Standards registry; a UNI identifies and never certifies, and nothing on this site is a certification, an approval or a readiness statement.
