Building Out Your Program

Need to implement a proprietary framework, regional regulation, or client-specific requirements? All you have to do is import a list of controls. Anecdotes will automatically map requirements to your controls, ensuring your custom framework is fully integrated with the rest of your GRC program. That means you get a fully mapped custom framework ready in hours instead of weeks that has automated evidence collection built in.

Scoping With Precision

Different products need different certifications and standards. Different subsidiaries face different regulations. Different business units use different infrastructure. Enterprise compliance programs require the kind of granular scoping that only Anecdotes offers.

Framework-Level Scoping

Define which plugins and accounts are in scope for each framework. Connect multiple AWS accounts, GitLab projects, or Okta tenants and scope each to specific frameworks. For example: AWS Account 1 to SOC 2, AWS Account 2 to ISO 27001, or both to the same framework.

Requirement-Level Scoping

Control whether a certain evidence is relevant to all frameworks, a specific framework or only to a specific control within a framework. Link or unlink evidence artifacts from individual controls or entire frameworks.

Record-Level Scoping

Filter evidence to show only specific data subsets. Create Views that display only production AWS resources, certain GitHub repositories, employees in specific departments, or data within particular date ranges. Save Views for auditor access or recurring reviews.

Executing Robust Compliance Workflows

Compliance is a team sport. Anecdotes provides the workflows to coordinate across teams from evidence requests via email or Slack, to remediation tasks in Jira or ServiceNow. And with Anecdotes Agentic AI, you can deploy existing or build custom AI agents to automate any process.

Evidence Requests

Multi-Channel Collection

Request evidence via email or Slack. They upload their evidence, and it automatically attaches to the relevant requirements across all applicable frameworks.

Multi-Channel Collection

Review uploaded evidence, approve or request revisions, and maintain a complete audit trail of who submitted what and when.

Task Management

Remediation Workflows
