Gather Evidence of Compliance

Mondoo continuously assesses your compliance. At any time, you can:

  • View up-to-date information on whether your infrastructure complies with your chosen frameworks

  • See a space's overall compliance and drill down into the details for different controls, checks, and assets

  • Generate a report to export or print evidence of (or progress toward) compliance

View a space's compliance progress

Mondoo expresses overall compliance as a percentage. A space is compliant with a framework only when it reaches 100%. Lower percentages show progress toward full compliance.

View a space's progress toward compliance with all available frameworks on the Compliance page:

  1. In the Mondoo Console, navigate to the space where you want to enable the policies.

    Space in the Mondoo Console

  2. In the side navigation bar, under Compliance, select Frameworks.

    The Compliance page shows all available frameworks and the space's progress toward compliance with each of them.

View evidence of compliance

From the Compliance Frameworks page, you can select a framework to learn more about the space's compliance with that framework.

COMPLETION shows overall progress toward compliance.

CONTROL DISTRIBUTION shows a high-level view of the state of controls in the framework: enabled, snoozed, and disabled. To learn about control states, read Customize Compliance.

Using the tabs in the lower portion of the framework page, you can drill down into different details.

  • The Controls tab lists all the controls in the framework. You can see your progress on each control and select a control to see details on the checks it maps to.

  • The Policies tab lists all the policies that contain the checks this framework maps to. You can enable, snooze, and disable policies.

  • The Assets tab shows the compliance progress of all the assets in the space. You can select an asset to view its details.

  • The Exceptions tab shows any customization you've created for the framework. To learn more, read Customize Compliance.

Generate a compliance report

To provide evidence to auditors, you can generate a report on a space's compliance with an entire framework or an individual control. Mondoo creates reports in PDF format.
