Why are we changing our Totally Transparent Research process? Because in the year 2026, blogs and comments are no longer a viable method of discussion on the internet. Additionally, Securosis has moved from a WordPress to static hosting (Hugo) site, without the commenting capability. As such we are moving to a Google Docs method of feedback, which worked well enough for the Mythos Paper at CSA. Version 1 can be found here. You can comment on this version In Google.

Totally Transparent Research is the embodiment of how we work at Securosis. It’s our core operating philosophy, our research policy, and a specific process. We initially developed it to help maintain objectivity while producing licensed research, but its benefits extend to all aspects of our business. Going beyond Open Source Research, and a far cry from the traditional syndicated research model, we think it’s the best way to produce independent, objective, quality research. Here’s how it works:
