The Two Problems

## Compliance has two problems.  
Most tools solve neither.

Identity platforms see the federated half. GRC platforms automate the easy half. Real programs need both halves — and the work in between.

AutoCISO solves both — for companies with SSO and without.

The Lifecycle

## From first audit to certificate, in one workspace.

Most platforms cover one slice of this path. AutoCISO walks the whole arc with you — and the same evidence that catches a ghost on day one feeds your auditor on day 180.

Day 1

### Ghost Hunter audit

Upload one screenshot. See ghosts, zombies, license waste, and SOC 2 gaps in 5 minutes.

Week 1

### Scope & gap analysis

AI-guided wizard maps your stack to ISO 27001 / SOC 2 and flags every control you're missing.

Week 2

### Policies, risks, SoA

AI-drafted policies tailored to your stack. Live risk register with budget context. Statement of Applicability auto-generated.

Month 1

### Access reviews & evidence

Quarterly reviews on autopilot. Evidence vault collects findings continuously, with chain-of-custody.

Month 3

### Internal audit & management review

Built-in workflows. Auto-generated board packs. Readiness score climbs in real time.

Month 4–6

### Auditor portal & certificate

Read-only auditor access. Pre-mapped evidence. You walk into the audit ready.

The Input Layer

## Two ways AI sees your stack.

One catches what other tools can't see. The other ingests everything else. You start with whatever you have. The graph grows with you.

How AutoCISO Works

## If you can see it on a screen,  
we can audit it.

Other platforms build API connectors. We build Eyes. That covers 100% of your apps — not just the 800 with integrations.

01

Upload

Take a screenshot of any app's "Users" page — or let the browser extension capture it automatically.

02

Extract

AI Vision identifies every user, role, email, and status. No API needed. No integration required.

03

Match

Fuzzy identity matching cross-references the list against your HR system or employee CSV.

04

Flag

Discrepancies surface as risks: ghost accounts, zombie licenses, privilege mismatches, service accounts.

05

Act

One click creates Jira or Slack tasks for asset owners. Evidence is archived for your auditor.

What It Does

## One platform. Three jobs. Zero spreadsheets.

Not a utility. Not a checklist. The full virtual-CISO scope, organized around the work of running a real program.

Access Intelligence

See every account, owner, and ghost — including the ones APIs miss.

Offboarding

## Automated Offboarding without SSO:  
The moment you let someone go, the clock starts ticking.

The average company takes 4–6 weeks to fully revoke a terminated employee's access — if they ever do. Meanwhile, that person can still log in, download data, and run up your licensing bill.

-   ✓ Detect all active access across every audited app in minutes
-   ✓ One-click generates revocation tasks in Jira and Slack
-   ✓ Full audit timeline archived as SOC2 evidence
-   ✓ Progress tracker shows which systems are still open

SOC2 Readiness

## SOC2 evidence in hours.  
Not weeks of spreadsheets.

The average SOC2 audit prep takes 40+ hours of manual screenshot collection. AutoCISO automates the collection, structures the evidence, and flags the gaps — before your auditor sees them.

✓

Auto-collects access evidence across all connected apps

✓

Maps findings directly to SOC2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA controls

✓

Immutable evidence vault with AI extraction audit trail

✓

"Audit Simulator" mode stress-tests your program pre-audit

For mature stacks

## Already have Okta?  
You're not done.

SSO covers your federated apps. AutoCISO covers everything else — the apps that never federated, the local admins your IdP can't see, the OAuth tokens that survive deactivation, the service accounts nobody owns.

Your auditor will ask about all of them. AutoCISO has the evidence.

Continuous attestation

Vision verifies what API and SSO claim — independent evidence your auditor will trust.

Shadow IT discovery

Browser extension finds unfederated SaaS your IdP never sees.

M&A due diligence

Every acquired company starts as screenshots — no waiting for IT integration.

Subsidiary mode

Audit subsidiaries that don't share your IdP without forcing a tenant migration.
