We have a requirement to get technical teams to audit and validate CIs. However, I can see both CI attestation and Data certification can be used.

I understand that data certification allows validation of non-CMDB tables, but it isn't too clear why there is a cross-over between the 2 features. Look forward to your

Hi @Chaz_,
Have you checked the below post, there's some useful and relevant points and links to video's to help answer the question for you.
Here's a good summary however:
To summarize,
- Attestation verifies a CI record represents something that's still being managed, if not then the CI record should be retired/removed from the CMDB.
- Certification verifies the data in a record is accurate, if not then the data needs to be updated.
