Manage controls in the Registers module

Release notes

Manage controls in the Registers module. Link tests, tasks and frameworks to each control, including in bulk when importing from a template. Customize workflow stages and fields, import with Hailey and track coverage from the Insights tab. Permissions are set per role.

What's included

  • Register, Insights and Viewer tabs. The Register tab lists all controls with search and filtering. The Insights tab shows charts and compliance information. The Viewer tab is a read-only view that can be exported to PDF.

  • Configurable workflow stages. Controls move through Draft, Active and Paused by default. Stages can be renamed or extended to match your own process and ownership model.

  • Import from a template. Bulk-load controls from a spreadsheet, including stage, owners, tags, access members, comments, type, domain and custom fields.

  • Link tests, tasks and framework requirements during import. A long-requested addition. Fill in the Linked data column in the template and each control is linked to its supporting tests, tasks and requirements as it is created. No need to link items one by one after import.

  • Import with Hailey. Upload a policy document and Hailey extracts controls for you to review and import.

  • Requirement-based assessments.   Enable requirement-based assessments in the register settings to make controls from this register available when creating a requirement-based assessment in the Assessments module.

  • Role-based permissions. Grant view, create, edit and delete access to the controls register per role under Administration, Roles, Permissions.

Worth knowing

  • Register settings, including Hailey import, the requirement-based assessments toggle and workflow stages, are opened from the gear icon on the register.
