Controls

Overview

Regulatory requirements give rise to risks, which are mitigated by having Controls in place. A Control may span across multiple locations, legal entities, businesses, and so on.

The effectiveness of a Control needs to be proven periodically (triggered by an event or at a specific frequency) by reviewing auditable evidence. Reviews of auditable evidence are called testing of the control, which shows whether a Control is effective. Adequate Controls help to prove whether an organization complies with a particular regulatory requirement.

  • Create and manage Controls.

  • Map controls to other objects such as Authoritative Documents, Risks, Master Data, and users.

  • Search Controls with flexible filter criteria.
