Policy

Controls mapped to the clause, not the document

A policy is mapped at section and bullet level, so “which policy covers this control?” has a precise answer rather than a PDF and a page number.

  • Section and bullet level control mapping
  • Versioning with approvals recorded per version
  • Section edit locks so contributors do not overwrite each other
  • Acknowledgments tracked per reader
  1. Draft
  2. Contributor review
  3. Approval
  4. Published
  5. Acknowledged

Versioned, with section edit locks so contributors do not overwrite each other

Controls mapped per clause

  • 3.1 Access is granted on least privilege2 controls
  • 3.2 Privileged accounts are reviewed quarterly3 controls
  • 3.3 Shared accounts are prohibited1 control

Authoring

Multiple contributors without collisions

Policies are structured into sections and bullets rather than stored as an opaque document, which is what makes clause-level mapping and concurrent editing possible.

  • Contributors assigned per policy
  • Section edit locks during concurrent authoring
  • Documents and external references attached
  • A policy audit log covering every change

Every module ships bundles at this granularity. Segregation-of-duties conflicts are declared as rules, with logged exceptions.

Exceptions

Exceptions are a workflow, not a flag

Exception handling carries configurable workflow templates, field visibility and requirement rules, delegation, renewals, reviews, and compensating controls.

  • Configurable workflow templates with ordered steps
  • Compensating controls recorded against the exception
  • Reviews, renewals, and renewal status tracked
  • Risk rating, priority, stakeholders, and full history
