AI agent for chief information security officers
Compliance Control Evidence Agent
Controls have current, tested evidence before the audit window
What it does
Frameworks like ISO 27001 or SOC 2 require proof that each control works all year, and last-minute collection is painful. This agent maps each control to the system that proves it, such as access review records, backup logs or change tickets, and collects samples every month. It tests each sample against the control's rule, for example that every sampled change had an approval. A control is green only when its latest samples pass and fall within the evidence period. When evidence is missing or fails, it opens a gap item with the control owner and collects again after the due date. Repeated gaps escalate to leadership. It drafts a readiness summary by control for a security lead or IT executive to approve before it goes to auditors. Edge case: a control run by a vendor needs their current assurance report; an expired one counts as a gap.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
