Nisos Ascend External API

Credential-gated HTTPS API behind the Nisos Ascend human risk management platform. Its existence and base URL are established from Nisos's own production build: the Ascend console's configuration module (ascend.nisos.com/assets/api-urls-*.js) declares EXTERNAL_API_URL as https://api.ascend.nisos.com and API_URL as https://platform.ascend.nisos.com. The external host is an AWS API Gateway that answers every anonymous request — root, control path and /.well-known/* alike — with HTTP 403 {"message":"Forbidden"} and x-amzn-errortype ForbiddenException. Nisos publishes no reference, no OpenAPI and no authentication documentation for it, so no operations, parameters or auth scheme are recorded here. Listed as a measured, gated surface.
