What the demo shows
Always-on testing of key financial and IT controls with cited exceptions for owners
Every monitored key control is a strip on the control pulse: ninety nights of results as a line, and last night's exceptions as dots you can count. Each night a monitoring agent re-runs every test on the whole population through read-only accounts and records the parameters and a fingerprint. For access conflicts a usage checker reads the change documents and logs to say whether the conflict was actually used. A triage agent turns raw exceptions into one case per real cause and applies only approved, unexpired known exceptions. A remediation agent asks the owner with the records, two or three options and a recommendation, and proposes protective actions such as a payment block that run only on the owner's yes. When the owner fixes it, a re-test agent re-runs the control on live data and returns it to green only on a pass; the SOX Program Manager signs off every critical case. Repeat failures go to the SOX lead with the history, and an evidence writer assembles the package the auditor re-performs.
Transcript
- Continuous Controls Monitoring tests key controls nightly for SOX teams and owners.
- Today, failures surface months later.
- A SOX program averages $2.3 million.
- The control pulse, 148 controls, ninety nights each, six failing today.
- Overnight, ITGC, 12Found and COVAC, can maintain vendors and release payments.
- The monitoring agent sites both roles and the ticket.
- The usage checker read the logs, never used.
- The remediation agent gives Daniel, the owner, three options.
- Daniel removes the payment roll with a reason.
- The retest agent proves the fix.
- IEGC 12 is green.
- Elena signs off two people on every critical fix.
- Ask or instruct the agents.
- They cite and act.
- Governance, cited, signed, logged.
- The result? Failures found in a day, not at year-end.
- Built on Botminds.
- Agents, data, screens, and governance on one platform.
