About IANS
from our crawl and measurement
IANS, based in Boston, MA, describes itself simply: "IANS Research provides guidance and actionable advice from renowned information security practitioners to help CISOs and their teams make informed decisions." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 6.7 out of 10, readable in places, missing in others.
Under the hood there is structured data on the page (Organization) and a readable heading structure, but the score is capped by what is missing: an llms.txt file, a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited the site 3 times in our tracking, so the engines are already looking.
