Control Testing

Know your controls work — not just that they exist.

Schedule and run automated tests against your security controls on a cadence that fits your program. Regulyze evaluates each control against its expected criteria, flags failures with root-cause context, and surfaces coverage gaps so nothing falls through the cracks before your next audit.

Having controls isn't the same as proving they work

Auditors don't just want to see that controls exist — they want evidence they're operating effectively. Most teams scramble to produce that evidence weeks before a review. By then, broken controls have been silently failing for months.

Regulyze's Control Testing module shifts you from point-in-time testing to continuous validation. Every control is tested on a schedule, results are logged with evidence, and failures surface the moment they occur.

How It Works

Automated testing in four stages

  1. 1

    Define test criteria

    Each control is paired with expected criteria — configuration checks, access reviews, process validations — either from built-in templates or your own definitions.

  2. 2

    Set a test cadence

    Choose daily, weekly, monthly, or on-demand schedules. Regulyze triggers tests automatically and collects the evidence alongside results.

  3. 3

    Review pass/fail results

    Every test produces a clear verdict with root-cause context. Failures include specific details on what went wrong and suggested remediation.

  4. 4

    Track trends & prove coverage

    Historical results build an audit trail of continuous monitoring. Trend dashboards highlight regressions before they become audit findings.

Capabilities

What Control Testing gives you

Flexible scheduling

Run tests daily, weekly, monthly, or trigger them on-demand. Mix cadences across different control types.

Pass/fail with root cause

Every test result includes a clear verdict and, on failure, specific root-cause context so remediation is immediate.

Gap analysis

Automatically surface controls that are missing tests or haven't been tested within their expected cadence.

Trend analysis

Visualize control health over time. Spot regressions, seasonal patterns, and improvement trends.

Evidence linkage

Test results are automatically linked to the evidence artifacts they produced — ready for auditor review.

On-demand re-tests

After remediation, trigger a re-test instantly to confirm the fix before the next scheduled run.
