Passing an audit is a challenge from start to finish. Day-to-day activities are often put on the back burner, and stress levels rise as your teams scramble to gather information in preparation.
CyCognito catalogs your externally exposed assets and tests them, providing governance risk compliance (GRC) teams the confidence they require to start the audit process. Well before the audit begins, they can assess the current state of exposure, the assets that need immediate attention, where the asset resides in your architecture, and obtain instructions on how to remediate the issue.
CyCognito maps discovered issues with top security frameworks and compliance standards, providing specific guidance for each violation as it relates to your objective. Automated evidence collection and continuous monitoring enable you to get ready for audit or prove attestation in minimal time. The result: faster audit times and lower stress levels for your teams.
Important new regulations such as NIS 2 add to the complexity as European organizations dig in to understand impact and requirements. Organizations are proactively addressing NIS 2 requirements through mapping from other security frameworks such as ISO27001, CIS and NIST 800-53, supported by CyCognito.
Organizations often learn of compliance issues during an audit, making it a challenge to respond effectively. Integrating CyCognito within your asset inventory and security testing workflow enables an early response and higher confidence.
You want your IT security teams aware of the most important issues that impact an audit. CyCognito provides your GRC teams with a continuously updated list of top issues and remediation steps to ensure issues can be resolved promptly.
Manual investigation and validation slow remediation efforts. CyCognito’s dynamic list of all issues is prioritized based on business risk. Remediation instructions are included to simplify the workflow.
CyCognito takes a standards approach that can be leveraged across hundreds of privacy and other regulations, for example, NIS 2 and HIPAA.
