Version 1.0 | Effective Date: October 29, 2026
Rules governing authorized use of CyberDax websites services content and infrastructure
This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") governs access to and use of all websites, applications, portals, APIs, infrastructure, data, reports, detection content, and other online services owned, operated, or provided by CyberDax, LLC, collectively referred to as the "CyberDax Services."
The CyberDax Services include, without limitation, the public CyberDax website at cyberdax.io, CyberDax subdomains, authenticated CyberDax applications, customer portals, APIs, integrations, and associated systems and infrastructure.
This AUP applies whether access is public, authenticated, paid, unpaid, invited, trial, evaluation, beta, pilot, or otherwise. Public availability of a website, page, endpoint, resource, report, or other CyberDax system does not constitute authorization to test, probe, scan, scrape, exploit, interfere with, or otherwise use it in a manner prohibited by this AUP.
By accessing or using the CyberDax Services, you agree to comply with this AUP.
1. Authorized Use
You may use the CyberDax Services only for legitimate business, cybersecurity, research, evaluation, informational, or other lawful purposes consistent with any applicable written authorization, invitation, entitlement, agreement, or other permission provided by CyberDax.
Where an account is required, you are responsible for activity conducted through your account and for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your authentication credentials.
Access to CyberDax does not grant permission to perform activities prohibited by this AUP. Access also does not grant rights to download, implement, modify, adapt, redistribute, commercialize, or otherwise reuse CyberDax proprietary content except to the extent CyberDax expressly permits in a separate written agreement or written authorization.
2. Security Testing and Vulnerability Research
Any vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, security testing, scanning, fuzzing, exploitation, automated probing, load testing, stress testing, or similar security research involving any CyberDax website, application, API, endpoint, domain, subdomain, server, network resource, or supporting infrastructure requires express written authorization from CyberDax before the activity begins.
A subscription, account, trial, invitation, evaluation, public website visit, or other access to the CyberDax Services does not constitute authorization to conduct security testing.
The fact that a CyberDax resource is accessible without authentication does not constitute authorization to perform security testing or automated reconnaissance against that resource.
Without prior written authorization, you may not:
- probe, scan, enumerate, or test CyberDax systems for vulnerabilities;
- attempt to bypass authentication, authorization, tenant isolation, role restrictions, rate limits, or other security controls;
- attempt to access another customer's, organization's, or user's information;
- test or demonstrate a suspected vulnerability beyond what is reasonably necessary to recognize that a potential issue may exist;
- exploit, weaponize, persist through, or exfiltrate information using a suspected vulnerability;
- conduct denial-of-service, stress, load, or availability testing;
- use automated security-testing or reconnaissance tools against CyberDax infrastructure; or
- attempt to gain access to systems, resources, functions, or information beyond those intentionally made available to you.
If you unintentionally discover a potential security vulnerability, discontinue further testing and report the issue to CyberDax at support@cyberdax.io or through any dedicated security reporting channel CyberDax publishes for that purpose.
Reporting a potential vulnerability does not itself authorize continued testing, exploitation, persistence, data access, or attempts to reproduce the issue beyond what is reasonably necessary to describe the potential vulnerability.
3. Scraping Automated Collection and Data Harvesting
Unless expressly authorized in writing by CyberDax, you may not use automated, semi-automated, systematic, or coordinated methods to extract, collect, reproduce, index, download, aggregate, enumerate, or reconstruct CyberDax content or data.
Prohibited methods include, but are not limited to:
- unauthorized web scraping or crawling;
- unauthorized automated browser activity;
- bots, scripts, agents, automated browsers, or similar automated tools used for prohibited collection;
- systematic enumeration of reports, records, rules, identifiers, endpoints, or other resources;
- bulk downloading or bulk extraction;
- circumvention of technical restrictions intended to limit collection or access;
- repeated manual or automated activity intended to reconstruct a substantial portion of the CyberDax corpus; or
- automated collection intended to create a competing dataset, service, platform, knowledge base, or product.
This restriction does not prohibit ordinary interactive use of publicly available website content, authorized use of authenticated CyberDax Services, ordinary search-engine indexing performed in accordance with CyberDax's published technical directives, ordinary browser accessibility features, ordinary password-manager functionality, user-initiated browser or AI assistance that does not systematically collect or reconstruct CyberDax proprietary content, or automation expressly provided or authorized by CyberDax.
Whether activity is permitted depends on its authorization, purpose, scope, volume, persistence, and effect, not merely on whether software automation is involved.
4. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Unless expressly authorized in writing by CyberDax, you may not use CyberDax content, reports, detection rules, structured data, datasets, analyses, or other proprietary materials to:
- train or fine-tune an artificial intelligence or machine-learning model;
- create, populate, or expand a training dataset;
- systematically populate or enrich an external knowledge base, vector store, repository, or retrieval corpus;
- develop a competing intelligence dataset, knowledge base, platform, or service;
- systematically enrich another model, dataset, or knowledge repository with CyberDax proprietary content;
- use automated AI systems to reproduce or reconstruct substantial portions of CyberDax content; or
- develop a product or service designed to substitute for substantial functionality or proprietary content provided by CyberDax.
This restriction does not prohibit ordinary use of generally available AI productivity tools where the user is otherwise authorized to access the CyberDax content, the use is for legitimate internal productivity or cybersecurity purposes, CyberDax content is not systematically retained or accumulated for reuse beyond the authorized task, the content is not incorporated into a training dataset, the content is not used to train, fine-tune, or develop a model, the use does not reconstruct substantial portions of CyberDax proprietary content, and the output is not used to create a competing intelligence product, dataset, platform, or service.
CyberDax may separately authorize additional AI, API, integration, automation, or data rights under a separate written enterprise, data, API, licensing, evaluation, or customer agreement.
5. Intellectual Property and Redistribution
Access to or availability of CyberDax content does not transfer ownership of CyberDax intellectual property.
Unless permitted under a separate written agreement, you may not:
- resell or sublicense access to CyberDax;
- redistribute CyberDax reports, detection rules, datasets, analyses, or other proprietary content;
- publish substantial portions of CyberDax proprietary content;
- create or maintain a competing database, dataset, service, platform, or product using CyberDax proprietary content;
- remove or alter proprietary notices, copyright notices, or attribution;
- reverse engineer CyberDax systems for the purpose of recreating proprietary functionality, datasets, detection content, methodologies, or processes; or
- represent CyberDax proprietary content as your own original proprietary work.
No CyberDax content, detection rule, query, report, analysis, score, methodology, user interface, dataset, or derived intelligence may be redistributed, resold, sublicensed, published, commercialized, or used to build a competing product unless CyberDax expressly authorizes that activity in writing.
Third-party trademarks, vulnerability information, advisories, publications, research, and source materials referenced by CyberDax remain the property of their respective owners.
6. Account and Access Restrictions
Where accounts or authenticated access are provided, you may not:
- share authentication credentials with unauthorized persons;
- permit unauthorized persons to access CyberDax through your account;
- impersonate another person or organization;
- use another person's account without authorization;
- create accounts using false or materially misleading information;
- attempt to gain privileges beyond those assigned to you;
- circumvent account, organization, role, entitlement, licensing, subscription, or access restrictions;
- evade technical limits, query limits, rate limits, or usage controls; or
- use multiple accounts or identities to circumvent restrictions applied to another account.
You are responsible for taking reasonable measures to protect credentials issued to you and for promptly reporting suspected compromise or unauthorized access.
7. Interference With CyberDax Services
You may not disrupt, degrade, overload, damage, probe, interfere with, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any CyberDax website, application, API, infrastructure, or supporting service, regardless of whether authentication is required to access the affected resource.
Prohibited conduct includes denial-of-service activity, deliberately excessive automated traffic, malicious or malformed requests, malware delivery, unauthorized availability testing, interference with another customer's or visitor's use, intentional exhaustion of compute, storage, bandwidth, query, or API resources, evasion of abuse-prevention mechanisms, or actions intended to impair the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of CyberDax systems.
Legitimate machine-originated traffic is permitted only when consistent with documented service limits and authorized functionality.
8. Unlawful or Harmful Use
You may not use CyberDax to facilitate unlawful activity, unauthorized intrusion, malicious exploitation, credential theft, unauthorized persistence, destructive activity, data theft, or attacks against third parties.
CyberDax threat intelligence, detection information, security analysis, detection logic, and related materials are provided for legitimate defensive, analytical, research, informational, and authorized security purposes.
Nothing in the CyberDax Services constitutes authorization to access, test, exploit, interfere with, or compromise a third-party system.
9. Monitoring and Enforcement
CyberDax may monitor and record activity involving the CyberDax Services for service and infrastructure security, fraud and abuse prevention, investigation of suspected policy violations, operational monitoring, product improvement, compliance, troubleshooting, protection of CyberDax intellectual property, and protection of CyberDax, its customers, users, and third parties.
CyberDax may use automated or manual methods to identify unusual access patterns, excessive querying, credential misuse, scraping, attempted enumeration, automated harvesting, unauthorized probing, suspicious API usage, attempts to evade technical controls, or other activity inconsistent with authorized or normal use.
Monitoring will be conducted consistent with applicable law and CyberDax privacy disclosures.
10. Suspension Restriction or Termination
CyberDax may restrict, suspend, block, or terminate access to the CyberDax Services when CyberDax reasonably believes that this AUP has been violated, activity presents a security or operational risk, an account or system is being used fraudulently or without authorization, activity threatens the availability, confidentiality, or integrity of CyberDax Services, activity threatens CyberDax intellectual property or user information, activity appears designed to circumvent technical or access controls, or immediate action is reasonably necessary to protect CyberDax, its customers, users, infrastructure, or third parties.
Where circumstances reasonably permit, CyberDax may provide notice or an opportunity to resolve the issue. CyberDax may immediately restrict access without advance notice where delay could reasonably increase security, operational, legal, intellectual-property, or user risk.
11. Pre Release and Evaluation Access
Certain CyberDax functionality may be provided for preview, evaluation, beta, pilot, or pre-release use. Such functionality may be incomplete, modified, suspended, restricted, or discontinued at any time and should not be relied upon as production-ready unless CyberDax expressly states otherwise.
Evaluation and pre-release access remain subject to this AUP and any applicable written evaluation, pilot, or customer agreement.
12. No Implied Authorization
Nothing about public accessibility of CyberDax systems, possession of an account, payment of a fee, participation in a trial, pilot, beta, or evaluation, receipt of an invitation, access to documentation, possession of technical knowledge regarding CyberDax, discovery of an endpoint or resource, or the absence of an immediate technical block constitutes implied authorization to engage in conduct otherwise prohibited by this AUP.
Authorization to conduct otherwise restricted activity must be provided expressly by CyberDax and, where required under this AUP, in writing before the activity begins.
Silence, non-response, technical accessibility, or failure to block an activity does not constitute authorization.
13. Relationship to Other Agreements
This AUP may be incorporated into applicable CyberDax terms, agreements, order forms, evaluation agreements, pilot agreements, enterprise agreements, or other written agreements.
A separate written agreement may provide specific permissions or restrictions that differ from this AUP. Where a separate written agreement expressly authorizes activity that would otherwise be restricted by this AUP, the specific written authorization controls within its stated scope.
Authorization for one activity does not imply authorization for another activity.
14. Changes to This Policy
CyberDax may update this AUP periodically as the CyberDax Services, security requirements, legal requirements, threat environment, technical capabilities, or business practices evolve.
The current version and effective date will be published with the policy. Where required by applicable law or agreement, CyberDax may provide additional notice of material changes.
