Roster exposure checks.
For departments that want the exposure addressed rather than only described.
Each quarter Smilodon checks every player on the roster the way a stranger would, from public sources only, removes addresses and family details from data brokers, reports impersonating accounts for takedown, tells each player privately what was found, and reports to the department by category and severity only. It is added to the athlete briefing or included in the season retainer.

What the engagement covers.
Each quarter, an open-source check on every player on the roster, conducted as a stranger would conduct it: public sources only, no access to any account, a fixed time per player. Exposed personal information is removed where it can be removed, impersonating accounts are reported for takedown, and the department receives a report by category and severity only.
- Addresses, telephone numbers and family details on data-broker sites, with opt-outs filed and re-filed as records reappear.
- Impersonating accounts and fraudulent solicitations in a player's name, reported to the platform.
- Photographs and posts by others that disclose a residence, a vehicle or a routine, with the player told privately.
- New arrivals checked within a month of enrollment; departing players removed from the service.
The department never sees the contents: not the address, the messages, the photographs or the sender. Players are told exactly what the department can and cannot see about them.
Asked about this one.
Does the department see what was found about a player?
No. The department sees categories and severity, never the address, the messages, the photographs or the sender. Players are told exactly what the department can and cannot see about them.
Does the firm monitor what players post?
No. The check looks at what is publicly findable about a player, as a stranger would, and does not access any account.
How are new arrivals handled?
Transfers and freshmen are checked within a month of enrollment; players who leave are removed from the service.
