Evidence + Audit Packages Export

  • Updated

Evidence + Audit Packages Export enables organizations to generate structured, audit-ready evidence packages directly from their compliance frameworks. This feature eliminates the need for manual evidence collection by automatically compiling all supporting documentation, links, and system-generated artifacts into a single downloadable package — making it easy to share with auditors, regulators, or internal stakeholders.

This functionality is designed to support both internal audits and external audit partnerships, ensuring consistent, traceable, and repeatable evidence delivery aligned to your selected compliance frameworks.

Purpose

Audit Packages streamline the process of preparing for audits by automatically gathering all evidence mapped to a compliance framework into a single, structured export.

  • Generate audit-ready evidence packages aligned to specific frameworks (e.g., AI governance standards, internal policies)
  • Eliminate manual collection across spreadsheets, emails, and shared drives
  • Ensure all evidence is mapped to the correct controls and requirements
  • Provide a consistent format for sharing with auditors and partners

This approach ensures your compliance posture is always ready for review, with clear traceability from controls to supporting evidence.

 

How It Works

Feature 1 - One-Click Evidence Package Download

Users can generate a complete evidence package directly from any compliance framework page by selecting “Download Evidence Package icon.”

 

 

  • Automatically compiles all evidence linked to the selected framework
  • Includes both uploaded files and externally linked resources
  • Delivers a single downloadable ZIP file for easy sharing

Feature 2 - Structured Evidence Organisation

Evidence is automatically organised into a clear folder hierarchy aligned to your framework structure.

  • Grouped by framework domains (e.g., GOVERN, MAP) and versions
  • Further broken down by Evidence Request List (ERL) items
  • Each folder contains all relevant files and supporting links

This ensures auditors can easily navigate and validate evidence against specific controls.


Feature 3 - Support for Multiple Evidence Types

The package includes all forms of evidence captured in the platform:

  • Uploaded documents (e.g., policies, reports, screenshots)
  • External links consolidated into readable reference files
  • Auto-generated evidence created from platform data

This provides a complete and unified view of your compliance evidence.


Feature 4 - Auto-Generated Evidence

The platform can automatically generate evidence documents based on system data and include them in the package.

  • Examples include inventory snapshots and policy outputs
  • Generated evidence is clearly included alongside manual uploads
  • Ensures critical documentation is always available and up to date

Feature 5 - Audit-Ready Formatting

Evidence packages are generated in a format optimized for audit review:

  • Clean folder structure aligned to compliance controls
  • Duplicate files are automatically handled and renamed where needed
  • Compatible with standard file extraction tools across operating systems

Feature 6 - Audit Partnership Enablement

Designed to support collaboration with internal and external auditors:

  • Share consistent, standardized evidence packages with partners
  • Reduce back-and-forth requests for missing documentation
  • Improve audit efficiency with pre-organised, control-mapped evidence

Notes

 

  • Evidence packages reflect the current state of your compliance tracking at the time of download 
  • Only evidence linked to the selected framework and mapped controls will be included
  • External links are grouped into reference files within each control folder 
  • Auto-generated evidence is included automatically where available 
  • Use this feature to maintain a repeatable, audit-ready process for compliance reporting and external reviews
