Infosec compliance and regulation requirements are no longer limited to ticking the right checkboxes for organizations—they have become critical for building trust, protecting sensitive data, and ensuring business continuity.
Yet, for many teams, managing compliance feels like navigating a maze. Even after using a compliance tool, it is difficult to consolidate data from your larger tech stack and use it to drive security programs.
Siloed tools require a lot of manual effort, which bogs down operations, creates inefficiencies, and increases the risk of missed deadlines or overlooked vulnerabilities. It’s clear: traditional approaches just can’t keep up with the demands of modern compliance.
This is where compliance automation comes in. By streamlining security workflows, simplifying risk management, and eliminating manual roadblocks, businesses can achieve compliance, maintain agility, and focus on what truly matters—growth and innovation.
An ecosystem that takes you beyond compliance and helps you focus on growth
Scrut offers an all-in-one platform where organizations can manage multiple compliance frameworks with minimal effort. This security compliance automation allows organizations to focus on their core business operations and product development without being burdened by complex security processes.
From cloud providers to project management tools, identity management systems, and more, Scrut creates a unified ecosystem that streamlines workflows and ensures compliance readiness at all times.
The Scrut Platform simplifies compliance for organizations by seamlessly integrating with the tools they rely on every day to run their business. Here are just a few examples:
1. Cloud providers
Organizations are required to check the compliance of cloud resources against predefined security standards.
By integrating with major cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and others, Scrut constantly monitors your cloud configurations, permissions, and control settings. Compliance automation integration helps you identify potential risks across your cloud environment, such as misconfigurations or unauthorized access.
As a result, you can resolve issues before they escalate and maintain adherence to industry best practices like the CIS (Centre for Internet Security) Benchmarks.
2. Identity providers
Effective identity and access management is crucial to enforce the principle of ‘least privilege’ for organizational security.
Scrut integrates with IAM tools such as Okta, Azure Active Directory, JumpCloud, and Google Workspace to monitor user access management. It keeps track of employees’ access rights and permissions, automatically highlighting roles that need access updation and those that are departing staff and require access revoked.
This reduces the risk of unauthorized access and helps you ensure that your access controls are always up-to-date, supporting a secure and efficient work environment.
3. Version control
Scrut integrates with popular development tools like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and others to embed security and compliance checks directly into your pipelines.
With granular logging, you get a traceable history of code changes, which is necessary for audit transparency. It automatically collects evidence for code reviews, approvals, and deployments, ensuring standards are met without interrupting developer workflows. This accelerates secure software delivery, reducing bottlenecks at no extra effort involved within development teams.
4. Project management platforms
When security issues arise, timely resolution is essential. Scrut integrates with project management tools like Jira, Asana, Monday, etc to help break down compliance processes into actionable tasks. Integration with communication platforms like MS Teams fosters real-time discussions, centralizing updates.
Tools such as Azure DevOps and ClickUp facilitate iterative workflows, which are ideal for evolving frameworks. Implementing bi-directional communication between the platform and these integrations makes it easy to assign and track tasks when controls fail, or evidence needs updating. This promotes accountability and speeds up issue resolution.
5. Policy management
Audit readiness becomes frictionless with Scrut’s ability to automate policy creation, approvals, acceptance, tracking, and storage. Integrations with tools like Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence, and others take care of the entire policy lifecycle.
Collaborative drafting, approval workflows, and granular access control enabled via these tools tie in with the controls maintained on Scrut. This ensures that policies are always up-to-date, time-stamped, and correctly aligned with relevant standards.
With IT compliance automation, organizations spend significantly less time on audit preparation, freeing teams to focus on strategic priorities.
6. Mobile Device Management (MDM)
Scrut simplifies managing device compliance across diverse hardware ecosystems. Integrations with solutions like Kandji, Jamf Pro, Microsoft Intune, JumpCloud, and others allow Scrut to pull in technical overview of employee devices and application information like Screenlock enabled, Antivirus Installed, etc. for Windows and macOS devices. This centralized view reduces vulnerabilities and ensures all devices meet organizational standards effortlessly, supporting flexible and remote working while enhancing user-friendliness.
7. Threat intelligence and vulnerability management
Vulnerability management plays a vital role in compliance by identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that could compromise sensitive data and systems.
Tools like Qualys, Snyk, SonarCloud, Microsoft Defender, AWS, and GitHub integrate seamlessly with Scrut, offering automated detection of vulnerabilities across infrastructure, applications, and code repositories.
You get detailed visibility into asset-level risks, ensure timely resolution through SLA tracking, and generate audit-ready reports, helping organizations demonstrate proactive security practices and adherence to regulatory mandates.
8. Web security
Scrut integrates with Cloudflare to enhance compliance by safeguarding data integrity and availability.
The Web Application Firewall (WAF) blocks malicious traffic, ensuring adherence to security standards like SOC 2 and PCI DSS. The CDN accelerates content delivery while encrypting data in transit, meeting GDPR and HIPAA requirements.
These integrations simplify compliance audits by providing logs, attack analytics, and robust DDoS protection, aligning with regulatory mandates for secure, high-performance systems.
9. Employee training and background check management
Scrut simplifies maintaining compliance for onboarding and training functions by integrating with platforms like Certn, Checkr, and KnowBe4.
The platform tracks background checks, conducts security awareness campaigns, and monitors completion. Organizations validate employee compliance efficiently, improving overall security awareness.
A unified solution built for modern organizations
Scrut connects workflows across your tech stack, eliminating silos. Automated evidence collection, dynamic risk monitoring, and seamless collaboration enable teams to focus on core objectives while maintaining continuous readiness. This unified approach enhances ease of use and adaptability, supporting flexible working environments.
By centralizing compliance efforts, automating critical workflows, and providing real-time insights, Scrut empowers organizations to maintain a strong compliance posture, streamline risk management, and eliminate redundant manual efforts. Scrut’s compliance automation software and integrations save time, reduce risk and enable businesses to navigate today’s complex regulatory environment confidently.
