Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

Interpretive note: The excerpt is partial; it names security risk as ground (a)(i) and references fraud risk in the clause name, but the full list of suspension grounds is not quoted. The canonical claim covers only the security risk ground explicitly present in the excerpt. Additional grounds are noted in omitted_material.
