So with Credly, we're obviously actively promoting who we are and what we do... but we also ensure that other organisations don't look or appear to be too similar to ISC2 and we can do that through the Credly platform and looking at it at other provided badges...It just helps strengthen the entire ecosystem by having verifiable information.
