Agentic Continuous Control Monitoring

CCM has entered the AI era. Agentic GRC automates the full workflow: detect gaps, notify stakeholders, remediate issues, verify resolution. All in minutes.

Traditional CCM Stops Too Soon

That gap between detection and remediation is where risk lives

Wait

Traditional CCM ends with detection. The GRC team is alerted of a gap, and then... they wait. Wait for someone to read the email they sent. Wait for someone to open a ticket. Wait for someone to apply the fix. Wait to manually verify it's resolved. Sometimes they wait for days, sometimes for weeks.

Agentic CCM Automates the Complete Workflow

Detection is just the beginning

Agentic Continuous Control Monitoring extends CCM to cover the workflows that were always manual. Now, when a gap is detected in your evidence, agents don't just notify, they act.

The Three Pillars of Agentic CCM

Intelligent Notification

Not every stakeholder needs the same notification. With Agentic CCM, you can ensure that each recipient gets notifications tailored to their needs instantaneously:

Example:

"Gap detected: 3 users without MFA in Okta"

  • Control Owner: Receives gap details + Control Assistant remediation steps
  • Risk Owner: Notified of increased authentication risk level
  • Technical Team: Jira ticket auto-created with affected user list

Managed Remediation

Don't wait for manual action. Build an agent that follows your workflows to trigger remediation processes as gaps are detected.

Example:

  • Access review overdue:Gap detected → Agent activated → Jira ticket created and assigned
  • Privileged access violation:
Gap detected → Agent activated → PagerDuty incident opened
  • MFA enforcement:
Gap detected → Agent activated → Okta API enforces MFA

Continuous Reassurance

Remediation isn't complete until it's verified. Agentic CCM closes the loop by automatically triggering your workflows to re-check controls after remediation.

1

Gap detected

2

Agent triggers automated remediation

3

Agent triggers on-demand evidence collection

4

Analysis rule re-runs on fresh evidence

5

Gap cleared → Control status returns to "Monitoring"

6

Residual risk recalculates based on updated control effectiveness

Agentic CCM Adapts to Your Environment

Every enterprise chooses different key corporate controls to monitor continuously. Some prioritize governance, others on risk, some on compliance. Anecdotes Agentic CCM provides out-of-the-box agents for common scenarios and gives you the power to build custom agents tailored to your organization's specific controls, tools, and workflows.

Pre-Built ACCM Agents

Trigger: Control status changes to Gap
Actions: Notify control owner, create Jira ticket, tag risk owner

Evidence Collection Failure Agent

Trigger: Plugin connectivity failed
Actions: Alert integration team via Slack, create high-priority ticket

Risk Appetite Breach Agent

Trigger: Risk level exceeds defined appetite
Actions: Escalate to risk committee, create treatment plan task

Policy Review Agent

Trigger: Policy review due date approaching
Actions: Email policy owner, create approval cycle task

Build a Stronger Program with Agentic CCM

Reduce Time to Remediation

From days to minutes. Every gap that stays open is risk exposure. Agentic CCM eliminates the delay between detection and action.

Improve Control Effectiveness

Faster remediation means stronger controls. Stronger controls mean lower residual risk. Lower residual risk means better compliance posture.

Real-Time Risk Posture

Your risk register reflects reality, not estimates from last quarter. When controls change, residual risk recalculates automatically.

Agentic CCM Is the Next Generation of CCM

Move beyond notifications. Automate the full workflow from gap detection to verified remediation. Build a control environment that doesn't just report problems, it solves them.
