v0.10.6 release scope
Three independent assessment domains, with local longitudinal context.
Core exposure
Observed/current Android state and granted access are prioritised independently from inferred app capability.
Data correlation exposure
App and SDK capabilities are assessed for possible association, profiling, enrichment and potential commercial or bulk-dataset usefulness if relevant data were actually collected.
Software exposure
Exact embedded component versions are matched against the bundled offline advisory catalogue. Conditional data-access paths and other software issues are kept separate, and a match does not by itself prove reachability, exploitation or routine bulk-data accessibility.
Bounded assessment history
Retain a local timeline of up to 50 assessments with version and role context.
Version-aware comparison
A changed assessment model starts a new comparison baseline rather than creating false device regressions.
Personal-use licensing
Praecheck Personal is a one-time licence for up to 2 personal devices and includes 12 months of updates.
