Compliance Center

Turn AWS security findings into control-level evidence.

Map each IAM finding to the control areas in the frameworks you report on, with a full evidence chain — technical assessment and finding-to-control mapping, not certification.

Technical assessment, not certification

Securitain provides automated AWS technical-control assessment and finding-to-control mapping with archived evidence. It does not calculate a framework compliance percentage, perform a full framework assessment, or issue certification. Any attestation output is an Assessment Report or Self-Attestation Draft and does not constitute certification or legal compliance advice.

Framework-aware findings

One finding, many frameworks

A single IAM finding — say, an admin user without MFA — often touches several frameworks at once. Securitain maps it to every affected control area, so fixing it advances all of them and you can prioritize by cross-framework impact.

Two distinct measures, never conflated

Automated Technical Control Score

A severity-weighted result of the automated AWS technical checks in this scan — not a framework compliance percentage.

Assessment Coverage

How much of the relevant control area Securitain could actually evaluate, given the role's permissions and current scope.

Legacy 37%: any single percentage is an IAM-finding severity index — not a HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI, or ISO compliance percentage.

Scoring language

The terms we use, defined

Automated Technical Control ScoreA severity-weighted view of the automated AWS technical-control checks Securitain ran in this scan. Not a framework compliance percentage.
Assessment CoverageHow much of the relevant control area Securitain could evaluate automatically, given the role’s permissions and current scope.
Manual Evidence RequiredControls that depend on policy, process, or human review and cannot be evidenced by an automated AWS scan.
Not AssessedControl areas outside Securitain’s current automated scope, or not reachable by the connected role.
Exception ApprovedA finding your team has formally accepted, with a recorded reason, so it is reflected accurately in reporting.
Evidence chain

Traceable from scan to report

Every step preserves the scan ID, ARN, and timestamp — so an auditor can follow any claim back to the exact observation.

Honest report artifacts

Securitain produces an Assessment Report and a Self-Attestation Draft you and your auditor can build on. There is no one-click attestation and no certification — formal attestation is performed by independent auditors.
