Compliance & Audit Evidence is Rencore's capabilities tailored to regulators and internal audit. Access review campaigns produce per-resource sign-off; audit logging tracks every platform action; scheduled reports deliver evidence on cadence; SIEM streaming pipes governance events into security operations; retention policies align with regulatory requirements. Maps to SOC 2, ISO 27001, EU AI Act, DORA, NIS2, and GDPR evidence categories.

Why it matters

  • Access reviews tuned for Microsoft 365

    Periodic access review campaigns specifically cover SharePoint permissions, Teams membership, Group ownership, and guest access. Schedule, assign reviewers, track completion, generate compliance reports, built around how M365 access actually works.

  • Attestation routes decisions to people who know

    Resource owners attest whether current access is still appropriate. The platform supports bulk attestation, delegation, and automated follow-up for non-responders. Distributed access governance, central oversight.

  • Comprehensive audit logging

    Every governance action, policy change, automation execution, approval decision, configuration update, is logged with full context. Export to CSV or stream to SIEM. Required for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 evidence; available out of the box.

  • Auditor-ready scheduled reports

    Evidence packs delivered on a configurable cadence, monthly compliance summary, quarterly access review status, annual policy effectiveness report. The auditor inherits a recurring evidence stream rather than asking for ad-hoc exports.

  • SIEM streaming to Sentinel, Splunk, others

    Governance events stream into the corporate SIEM in real time alongside identity and endpoint signals. Correlation across signal sources, not isolated governance silos.

What auditors actually want

A complete audit evidence pack covers three categories: what controls are in place, how they were operated during the period, and what exceptions occurred and how they were handled. Most governance platforms can produce point-in-time data for the first; few can produce the historical record needed for the second; almost none make exception handling auditable by default.

Rencore covers all three. Policies are the controls; access reviews and automation logs are the operation record; approval workflows and audit logs are the exception trail. The same data feeds the auditor’s evidence pack and the security operations team’s SIEM.

Maps to the regulations enterprises care about

SOC 2 (CC6.1, CC6.2, CC6.3, CC7.2): RBAC, access reviews, audit logging, monitoring. ISO 27001 (A.9, A.12): access management, operations security. EU AI Act: agent inventory, risk classification, AI usage logging. DORA: ICT risk management, incident reporting evidence. NIS2: similar to DORA with broader scope. GDPR: data subject access support, retention policies, PII detection.

The evidence pack templates align to these frameworks out of the box. Customizing for organization-specific controls or sector-specific frameworks (HIPAA, PCI DSS) uses the same Report Builder and custom-entity infrastructure as the rest of the platform.

Beyond annual audits

Compliance is not just an annual event. Continuous compliance, the platform continuously checking that controls are operating effectively, with deviations flagged in real time, is the direction every major regulation is moving. Rencore’s continuous scanning plus comprehensive audit logging is the technical foundation.

Frequently asked questions

What is Rencore governance?
Rencore governance is a SaaS platform that continuously monitors your Microsoft 365 tenant for policy violations, configuration drift, and security risks across SharePoint, Teams, Power Platform, Copilot, and AI Agents. It automates compliance evidence collection, surfaces oversharing and sprawl, and provides actionable remediation workflows, reducing manual audit effort by up to 80%.
Can I export data from Rencore?
Yes. Rencore exports reports and dashboards in PDF, Excel, and CSV formats, with no feature gating by plan tier. Scheduled report delivery sends governance snapshots by email on a daily, weekly, or monthly cadence. The SIEM export streams governance events to Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, and other SIEMs in real time.
How do Rencore policies work?
Rencore ships with hundreds of pre-built policies that detect governance violations across every connector, oversharing, sprawl, cost overruns, security risks, and compliance gaps. Policies run on a continuous schedule, evaluate each discovered object against configurable rules, and flag violations with severity (High, Medium, Low), category, and a recommended action.
