The VCRI wordmark: "VCRI" where the I is an interlocked chain, for the value chain and the chain of custody. Download the vector (SVG) for print and design; the PNG for web and docs. Please use the marks as provided and do not recolor, stretch, or add effects.
Fonts: no fonts needed. Every logo file has its lettering converted to outlines, so it opens and prints the same anywhere. For text set beside the logo, use Inter, our house typeface (free, SIL Open Font License); a copy is in the kit's fonts/ folder.
Name and boilerplate
Name: The Value Chain Risk Institute, with a capital T, matching the legal name. Short form after first use: the Institute. Abbreviation only where space forces it: VCRI.
One line: The Value Chain Risk Institute is a US nonprofit that publishes free, open methods for measuring vendor and AI security posture, including in-browser tooling for the Cyber Manual Movement template and the EU Cyber Resilience Act. valuechainrisk.org
Crediting the tools: "Conditions of Use builder and CRA Manual Builder by The Value Chain Risk Institute, built on the Cyber Manual Movement template, CC BY 4.0." The methodology and tools are CC BY 4.0; the logo and name are not, and indicate contribution or support, never endorsement of a third-party product.
Backgrounds: navy variant on light only; reverse-white and red-lead (white label) on dark only, their name text is white and disappears on light. For the red-lead look on light backgrounds, use the red-lead black-label variant (its "The Value Chain / Risk Institute" line is black).
Clear space & scale: keep clear space around the mark of at least the height of the "V"; do not reproduce the wordmark below ~120px wide (use the emblem instead).
Don't: recolor, add glow/shadow/gradient, stretch, rotate, or box the mark. The interlocked chain-I is part of the letterform, not decoration.
