Compliance & Governance
Workflows

Ten agent workflows for the GRC Team — regulatory compliance monitoring, third-party risk assessment, data sovereignty verification, audit readiness automation, policy violation detection, vendor compliance scoring, supply chain compliance mapping, incident disclosure tracking, privacy regulation monitoring, and compliance benchmarking — enabling continuous compliance assurance powered by domain intelligence across the entire vendor and partner ecosystem.

1Third-Party Risk Assessment (TPRM)

AI agent performs continuous third-party risk assessment by analyzing vendor domain intelligence — replacing annual questionnaires with real-time monitoring of vendor security posture, compliance status, financial health, and operational stability across all 20 page types.

7Incident Disclosure Compliance Tracking

AI agent monitors vendor and partner domains for breach disclosures, incident notifications, and security advisories — ensuring our organization is aware of supply chain incidents that may trigger our own notification obligations.
