  • Publication number: 20240007497
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for usage-tracking of various information security (InfoSec) entities for tenants/organization onboarded on an instant multi-tenant security assurance platform. The InfoSec entities include policies, procedures, controls and evidence tasks. A policy or procedure is enforced by implementing one or more controls, and the collection of one or more evidence tasks proves/verifies the implementation of a control. The InfoSec entities are linked to each other across the platform and accrue a number of benefits for the tenants. These include generating a security questionnaire response (SQR), defining a readiness project and an audit project, sharing InfoSec entities encompassing the various products of a tenant, automating risk assessment, automatic collection of evidence tasks for verifying the implementation and/or operational state/status of various mitigating controls, etc.

  • Publication number: 20230144362
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for managing computing systems according to detect and correct configuration gaps with specific system requirements frameworks. Specifically, the disclosed system accesses a digital data repository to determine attribute values of data objects representing functions or infrastructure associated with handling target data for an entity. The disclosed system determines a digital representation of a system requirements framework that indicates controls associated with handling specific data types. Based on the attribute values and a gap rules set associated with the system requirements framework, the disclosed system determines configuration gaps to be addressed via control actions for installing controls in connection with various data assets or data processing operations.

The InfoSec entities include policies, procedures, controls and evidence tasks. A policy or procedure is enforced by implementing one or more controls, and the collection of one or more evidence tasks proves/verifies the implementation of a control. The InfoSec entities are linked to each other across the platform and accrue a number of benefits for the tenants. These include automatically/continuously creating asset populations and drawing samples from the asset populations for auditing. The population samples may be generated by entering natural language queries in the platform. Asset data from the asset populations is used to feed/populate various other modules and systems used by the tenant of the platform.
