Here's a revised version. After much thinking, I prefer the stroked version. It's more balanced on top and it's a little different than what you see out there. The angle of the triangle is the same as the V. I essentially took the V and closed the opening. I also spaced out the letters a bit to balance out the big space between the Ts.
Looking back at this, there might be an opportunity to modify the D for a bit more of a greek 'everything is angled' feel as it's the only round bit in the whole logo. May not turn out well, but possibly worth exploring.
I think this looks much more refined and will stand out for sure. its a very strong symbol and mark overall. Out of curiousity is it still a perfect triangle? Could you make the mark a perfect triangle and then modify the V after it?
Not sure what that D would look like ( @Kyle ) but yeah it might be worth looking into.
Looks great. Regarding the D, I wonder if it might be worth modifying it's width; it's the widest letter and the most prominent. The V looks a little weak by comparison. Modifying the Ds vectors might address this slight imbalance and it would also help with the centering of the symbol (which feels very slightly to the left).
Kyle, it's interested about I wonder if it will make the logo feel to Greek.
Bryan, the triangle is golden, but close to it. I think the golden version gets a little too condensed. This one is a good balance I feel.
Richard, you're right about the type isn't centered with the icon. I wanted the point to be right between the two Ts, when it didn't point dead center it felt awkward. Your solution might solve this problem. The typeface is Futura by the way. It pains me inside to touch a classic like this. :)
I took Antonio's original golden triangle and inset it in this current un-filled one. I thought that the idea of representing the fact that there are many layers in the vetting process with another triangle might be interesting. Just an idea...
Curious to see its application. Did you consider Verlag? Similar aperture on the V but the arm on the E is a little lower. Like @Malte love the tension.

This looks really nice. Agree that a more angled D will make it feel too Greek. I like this just the way it is, actually.
I could see this looking really great, reversed out (in white) over some cool photography (of whatever it is that's being vetted).

I think this works really well as a Fashion/Design identity.

i think the original version works absolutely fine. the tension between the triangle, the double t and the v is just great. beautiful logotype.
