SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Legacy security and compliance frameworks including NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and NIS2 were written for network-centric on-prem or early-cloud environments, with controls that do not accommodate modern architectural realities like ephemeral serverless compute, AI pipelines, zero trust architecture, and no-reboot patching requirements. This gap forces organizations to either make false compliance claims or block valid, secure architectural upgrades entirely.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Defensible Exception Templates: Pre-built, auditor-ready exception templates for common framework control gaps, including ephemeral infrastructure asset inventory, externally managed LLM change management, zero trust network segmentation, and critical system no-reboot kernel patching.
  • Threat-Aligned Compensating Controls: Maps residual risks to MITRE ATLAS and ATT&CK TTPs, and ties compensating control requirements to real-world exploit availability (RWEP) scoring to eliminate compliance theater.
  • Multi-Framework Support: Templates and gap declarations aligned to NIST, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, NIS2, EU DORA, EU AI Act, UK NCSC CAF, AU ASD Essential 8, and other global regulatory regimes.
  • Use Case: A team deploying immutable serverless functions can use this skill to produce a valid, defensible exception for NIST 800-53 CM-8 asset inventory controls that assume persistent, individually scannable assets.

Quick Start

Use the policy-exception-gen skill to create a defensible exception request for your serverless workload's NIST 800-53 CM-8 asset inventory control gap.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a defensible policy exception for NIST 800-53 CM-8 ephemeral asset inventory controls?

Generate a defensible policy exception by mapping your ephemeral serverless infrastructure's residual threats to MITRE ATT&CK TTPs and tying compensating controls to real-world exploit availability scoring within a time-bounded, risk-owner-signed template aligned to NIST 800-53.

What is a compensating control for zero trust network segmentation deviations?

A compensating control for zero trust segmentation deviations is a threat-mapped safeguard tied to real-world exploit availability scoring, documented in an auditor-ready exception template that aligns residual risks to global frameworks like ISO 27001 and PCI DSS.

Can I create a compliance exception for no-reboot kernel patching on critical production systems?

Yes, you can create a compliance exception for no-reboot kernel patching by generating an auditor-ready document that maps residual risks to MITRE ATT&CK TTPs and validates compensating controls against real-world exploit availability for your critical systems.

How do I handle ISO 27001 compliance gaps for externally managed LLM API change management?

Handle ISO 27001 compliance gaps for externally managed LLM APIs by generating a defensible exception document that declares the architectural gap, maps residual threats to MITRE ATLAS, and aligns compensating controls to regulatory frameworks like EU DORA and the EU AI Act.

Does this policy exception generator support EU DORA and NIS2 regulatory frameworks?

Yes, this policy exception generator supports EU DORA and NIS2 by producing time-bounded, risk-owner-signed exception templates that align threat mappings and compensating controls to these global regulatory regimes alongside NIST, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS.

When do I need a formal policy exception document for serverless compute compliance?

You need a formal policy exception document for serverless compute when legacy security frameworks like NIST 800-53 assume persistent, individually scannable assets that do not accommodate ephemeral infrastructure, forcing a defensible exception to maintain audit readiness.
