## Governing question

What supports confidence that PNT is fit for the intended mission?

## Direct answer

Assured PNT is a mission-specific confidence judgment supported by evidence that PNT information, sources, equipment, and operating controls satisfy defined requirements under expected conditions and credible threats. Assurance depends on what must be trusted, for which decision, and with what verification; it is not created by attaching the word assured to a product.

## Why it matters

Availability alone does not establish that PNT information is authentic, sufficiently accurate, timely, protected, or appropriate for a decision. Technical, operational, cybersecurity, safety, and acquisition teams need an explicit evidence basis for reliance.

## Definition

The disciplined evaluation of whether positioning, navigation, and timing information is sufficiently dependable for a stated mission, operating condition, and decision context.


## Capability relationships

Assured PNT is closest to Navigation Integrity because both concern justified reliance. Integrity focuses on the trustworthiness and alerting status of navigation information; assurance combines that evidence with mission requirements, operating conditions, cybersecurity, governance, and other controls.

## Standards and authority context

CISA acquisition guidance connects PNT resilience requirements to operational needs, threats, recovery, and source behavior, while NIST provides a broader risk-management framework for responsible PNT use. LJP uses Assured PNT in a cross-sector, implementation-neutral sense and does not claim certification authority.

## Package

Assured PNT is one peer Capability Namespace within Sovereign PNT & Resilient Timing at https://sovereignpnt.com/.

## Credibility boundary

This namespace does not certify a system, define compliance, issue an assurance rating, provide a safety case, or claim regulatory authority.
