Overview
Unified Controls provide you with an easier, more manageable compliance experience. Our expert team of auditors has mapped our offered frameworks to a single, core control list, giving you a centralized location to view and act on your organization’s Action Items. That means no flipping between controls — you can focus on all of your frameworks at once, or one at a time.
Unified Controls offer:
Easy identification — One name for a control, across frameworks, whether you’re in setup or maintenance
Reduced repetition of tasks — All Action Items display on a single control screen and show the overlap between frameworks
Compliance on a manageable schedule — Align your organization’s frameworks and work on them a few times a year, not all year long
Viewing Unified Controls
Control Counts
Your Dashboard reflects the count of all Unified Controls.
Framework Health
Your Framework Health reflects all Unified Controls linked to a framework control.
Compliance Roadmap
Clicking your control counts from the Program Overview will open the All Frameworks Roadmap, which displays all Unified Controls.
You can filter this list to view controls linked to a specific framework, or view all Unified Controls at once by selecting All Frameworks.
You can group controls by Status, Owner, Activity Type, and Milestone.
Clicking a Unified Control will display all Action Items related to the control, along with their corresponding frameworks, so you can easily identify which tasks overlap.
Control Names
Whether you’re currently using a single framework, or have multiple that you’re maintaining, control names and IDs reflect the Unified Control name and ID. The majority of Unified Control names are easily identifiable by their naming convention, and a mapping of framework control names to their Unified Control names can be found below.
Click References on the side panel in a Universal Control to view framework controls satisfied by the Unified Control.
