OpenAudit is a standardized way of *proving* these claims, instead of just asserting them. A claim must have **references** (either specific lines of code, or relevant documentation). Auditors then perform **verifications** on each reference to ensure they adequately support the claim. To show how this works, we conducted an [OpenAudit of Lockdown Privacy](https://openaudit.com/lockdownprivacy) in April 2021. Here's a snippet:

![Screenshot of a the same text document, but now there is a popover that has 3 citations/proof entries right beneath the text that was previously pointed to. The first proof is a Github code snippet with actual source code, second is the wikipedia entry on Advanced Encryption Standard, and third is another code snippet from Github. Under each entry are two "VERIFIED" labels with the usernames of the security auditors who verified each entry.](/assets/images/oa-2.png)

In this example, the user has clicked the claim about "user data [...] is protected by modern encryption", which shows a popup with the proof of that claim: three references that support it, and two auditor verifications per reference. OpenAudit is designed to show everyday users which claims have been independently verified, while allowing technical users to quickly dig into the details. Lockdown Privacy’s OpenAudit has a total of 582 references and 1164 verifications, all publicly viewable at [https://openaudit.com/lockdownprivacy](https://openaudit.com/lockdownprivacy).

Today, users are forced to blindly trust that their apps (even privacy apps) won't steal or leak their data. But how can you tell which apps actually respect your privacy, and which apps are just using slick marketing and making false promises? In an App Store plagued with fraudulent, scammy, and negligent apps, OpenAudit lets honest apps stand out by earning user trust through independently verified proof.
