The Full Aurora Workflow

One Proof Record for Audits, Buyers, and Renewals.

Aurora turns controls, evidence, readiness records, communications, and reviewer sharing into one live proof record. Your team stops rebuilding answers for every audit, renewal, and security review.

Start here for the full proof workflow. Want to jump to a specific capability? Browse All Capabilities and go straight to the product area behind your next review.

15-minute walkthrough. Bring a real questionnaire, framework, or buyer request and we will show the proof workflow live.

How It Works

One Workflow for Reviews, Renewals, and Response

Scope the work, map controls once, keep proof current, and share the right package when someone asks.

01
Scope What Applies
Choose the frameworks, reviewers, and deadlines that matter.
02
Map Once
Map requirements to one control library and reuse the answer.
03
Collect Proof
Pull proof from systems or upload it once into one record.
04
Keep It Current
Track freshness, owners, and reminders so stale proof surfaces early.
05
Share Safely
Open a controlled reviewer view or send the exact package requested.

Respond to audits and security reviews from one continuously updated evidence base - even when the reviewer changes or the request shifts.

Next step
Start from a Live Proof Record, Not Another Rebuild

What Reviewers Receive

See Which Aurora Workflow Produces Each Reviewer Output

Every reviewer request maps to a workflow, an evidence trail, and a clear deliverable.

When Evidence Drifts

Know What Is Stale Before Reviewers Do

Every proof item has an owner, a freshness date, and automated reminders. Aurora surfaces stale work before a reviewer turns it into rework.

Via integrations

Connected Systems

Scheduled checks keep live proof current without manual chasing.

Upload & track

Uploaded Proof

Upload exports and keep history, freshness, and ownership visible.

Owner & cadence

Attestations and Approvals

Track the work no connector can do for you - with owners and review schedules.

When Reviewers Ask

Share Proof without Shared Logins or Attachment Chaos

Give reviewers the proof they need through controlled access, clean exports, and a full activity trail.

Controlled Reviewer Portal

Give buyers and auditors a clean proof portal with only the documents that fit their request.

Offline Export When Required

Send a clean reviewer package when a request still needs files.

Every Access Event Logged

See who viewed, downloaded, or exported proof when follow-up questions arrive.

Exception management
Document accepted risks with rationale.

Setting Expectations

Aurora Runs the Program. It Does Not Replace Your Auditor.

Aurora helps your team organize, update, and share compliance work. It does not guarantee audit results or act as legal counsel.

Does
  • Run and document compliance work in a repeatable workflow
  • Map frameworks to one control library and reuse evidence
  • Keep evidence current with freshness tracking, owners, and reminders
  • Give reviewers structured access with tiered permissions and logs
  • Export organized files when a reviewer requires a document
  • Track risks, remediation items, and policy approvals
Does not
  • Guarantee compliance outcomes or audit results
  • Replace an auditor, assessor, or legal counsel
  • Make compliance decisions on your behalf
  • Claim to meet all requirements automatically

Aurora keeps the work organized and review-ready. Your team, auditor, and counsel still own the final judgment.

Before You Evaluate

The Questions Teams Ask First

Will this create more work for our team?
Aurora cuts work per review cycle - it does not add overhead. Map controls once, keep evidence current with reminders, and reuse outputs across overlapping frameworks and repeat reviewers.
Can we control what reviewers see?
Yes. Trust Center lets you create access tiers, set expiring links, require agreements before access, and track every view and download. You share only what is relevant to each reviewer.
What is automated vs. manual?
Aurora labels every evidence source. Automated checks run where integrations support them. Export-based evidence gets uploaded and tracked for freshness. Manual evidence like attestations and approvals is tracked with owners and cadence. You always know the source type.
How do we keep evidence from going stale?
Every evidence item has an owner, a refresh schedule, and automated reminders. Aurora flags what is expiring before reviewers notice - so you refresh on schedule instead of scrambling before audits.
Does Aurora replace our GRC tool?
Aurora gives your team one place to run the compliance program, keep evidence current, and share proof with reviewers. If your GRC tool already covers your needs, Aurora complements it. If you are outgrowing spreadsheets, Aurora replaces them.
What is the implementation lift?
Most teams start with their next review deadline. Import a questionnaire or select a framework, map controls, and begin collecting evidence. There is no lengthy onboarding required. Start with what you need today.
