Controls as a Service

Periodiccompliancereviews,completedforyou.

Business and IT owners are asked to verify whether their users have appropriate access. They often do not have time to derive the answer. Vakrian builds the assessment with full reasoning. Owners verify, not derive. Audit accepts the package.

What runs through the engine
User Access Reviews

Every user, every cycle. We assess appropriateness against current job function and recent change.

Privileged Access Reviews

Elevated access reviewed on a separate cadence. The smaller population that carries most of the risk.

Periodic SOD Validation

Conflict drift caught between formal reviews. Net-change analysis tied to remediation options.

Change Management Validation

Configuration and access changes reviewed against approval workflow and audit trail.

Speed

Cycles run on your schedule. Vakrian does the assessment work, owners verify, not derive.

Agility

Run as many reviews as you need. Same engagement model whether one a year or twelve.

Cost

Credit-based. You pay for completed reviews, not hours, not retainers.

Quality

Every recommendation comes with the reasoning behind it. Owners verify with full evidence in hand.

How it works

One engagement model. As many cycles as you need.

Onboard once. Run reviews on your schedule. Each cycle ends with an audit-ready package.

What each review delivers

Four review types. Four outcomes that hold up to audit.

Same engagement model across all four. Each cycle ends with a defensible record in your hands.

Stage 01Each cycle

User Access Reviews

  • A defensible position on whether every user has the access they should
  • Reasoning attached to every approval and every removal
  • Reduced exposure from access that drifted out of scope
  • A clean sign-off log ready for audit testing
Stage 02Each cycle

Privileged Access Reviews

  • A current inventory of every elevated and sensitive permission
  • Confirmation that elevated access is held only by the right people
  • Continuous monitoring between formal reviews
  • A documented record of why exceptions exist where they exist
Stage 03Each cycle

Periodic SOD Validation

  • Net-change analysis since the prior validation
  • Conflicts caught between formal reviews, before they compound
  • Remediation options tied to each conflict
  • Trend reporting that shows whether the environment is improving
Stage 04Each cycle

Change Management Validation

  • Configuration and access changes tested against approval workflow
  • Unauthorized or unapproved changes surfaced for review
  • Audit-trail completeness verified across the period
  • A defensible record that change controls held up

You onboard once. After that, review cycles run on your schedule, annually, semi-annually, quarterly, or monthly depending on your risk appetite and audit requirements. Each cycle ends with an audit-ready package. You verify the results. Audit accepts the package. Vakrian builds the assessment and provides full reasoning on every finding; your team does not derive it.

Four: User Access Reviews (appropriateness against current job function and recent change), Privileged Access Reviews (elevated and sensitive access on a separate cadence), Periodic SoD Validation (conflict drift between formal reviews, with trend reporting), and Change Management Validation (configuration and access changes reviewed against approval workflow and audit trail). Each review type can be run on its own cycle frequency.

Vakrian builds the assessment. Your team verifies the results. Business and IT owners are asked to confirm the results. They are not asked to derive the answer. We run the analysis, surface the conflicts, and provide the reasoning behind every recommendation. Owner sign-off is one step in the process, not the entire process.

Credit-based. You pay for completed review cycles, not retainers. Credits are purchased in a package sized to your expected cycle frequency and user population. Each completed cycle consumes credits from the package. There is no minimum cycle commitment within a package period, so if your review cadence shifts, your cost reflects the work actually done.

Every finding in the audit-ready package includes the conflict identified, the reasoning behind it, and a recommended remediation action. If a finding requires escalation, elevated access held by an unauthorized user, for example, we flag it at the owner sign-off step before the package closes. Vakrian then works to resolve the issue or document a business justification. Either way, the disposition is captured in the audit record.

The package produced at the end of each cycle is audit-ready by design. It includes the population reviewed, the conflicts identified, the compensating controls captured, and the owner sign-off log. It packages into common GRC formats on request. Your internal or external auditor receives a complete, evidence-backed record, not a summary that requires follow-up questions to support.
