How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T1096596 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Entity disambiguation (via context triple)
gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: DTLS Context triple: [TURN, worksWith, DTLS]
-
A.
TLS
TLS (Transport Layer Security) is a cryptographic protocol that secures data transmitted over networks by providing encryption, authentication, and integrity between communicating applications.
-
B.
QUIC
QUIC is a modern, multiplexed transport protocol developed by Google and standardized by the IETF that runs over UDP to provide faster, more secure, and reliable web connections than traditional TCP-based HTTPS.
-
C.
DNS over QUIC (DoQ)
DNS over QUIC (DoQ) is a modern DNS transport protocol that uses the QUIC encrypted, multiplexed UDP-based transport to provide faster, more secure, and more reliable DNS queries than traditional methods.
-
D.
RFC 8446
RFC 8446 is the Internet standard that specifies TLS 1.3, a major revision of the Transport Layer Security protocol focused on improved security and performance for encrypted communications.
-
E.
SSL
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide secure, encrypted communication over a computer network, commonly used to protect data transmitted between clients and servers.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
Instruction
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
Input
Subject: DTLS Description of subject: DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security) is a protocol that provides TLS-like encryption, integrity, and authentication for datagram-based communications such as UDP.
