Compliance Manager helps simplify compliance and reduce risk by providing:
• Pre-built assessments for common industry and regional standards and regulations, or custom assessments to meet your unique compliance needs (available assessments depend on your licensing agreement; learn more).
• Workflow capabilities to help you efficiently complete your risk assessments through a single tool.
• Detailed step-by-step guidance on suggested improvement actions to help you comply with the standards and regulations that are most relevant for your organization. For actions that are managed by Microsoft, you’ll see implementation details and audit results.
