Security Exceptions.
Governed lifecycle.
Govern security exceptions with policy-aligned approvals, evidence requirements, risk scoring, and time-bound controls — so every accepted risk is documented and auditable.
Full exception lifecycle governance
From exception request to approval, review, and expiry — CloudSignals+RiskOps governs the complete exception lifecycle.
Exception Registry
A centralized exception log with full request history — who requested it, why, the risk accepted, and when it expires.
Approval Workflow
Multi-stage approval flows with mandatory reviewer sign-off. Approvals are logged with identity, timestamp, and rationale.
Risk Scoring
Every exception carries an automated risk score based on the underlying finding severity, asset criticality, and exception duration.
Evidence Packs
Attach supporting documentation to each exception. Evidence packs are formatted for auditor consumption — ready for SOC 2, PCI-DSS, or CMMC review.
Time-Bound Controls
Set expiration dates on every exception. Automated reminders prompt owners to review, renew, or close before exceptions lapse silently.
Exception Reporting
Exception dashboards show open count, aging, risk exposure, and owner accountability — ready for leadership and audit committee review.
Governance outcomes
Undocumented exceptions — every accepted risk has an owner, evidence, and expiry
Audit trail on all exception approvals — identity, timestamp, and rationale captured
Exception posture reports for auditors and risk committees — no manual compilation
