Continuous Control Monitoring
Audits prove your controls worked on one day. Continuous control monitoring proves they keep working every day. CATAAM automatically re-checks your SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA & PCI-DSS controls and alerts you on drift — so you stay audit-ready year-round, not just at audit time.
Always-on control checks
CATAAM re-runs each control check on a schedule instead of once a year — your compliance posture is live, not a snapshot.
Drift alerts in hours
When a control falls out of compliance, you get a CCM alert immediately — and a Jira issue if you want one — not a surprise at audit time.
Proves controls actually work
Built-in breach & attack simulation and internal attack surface monitoring verify controls stop real attacks, not just that they exist.
Type II evidence by default
Continuous, timestamped checks build the operating-effectiveness history a SOC 2 Type II report needs — automatically.
How continuous control monitoring works
Map controls once
Pre-mapped SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS & NIST controls — one check can satisfy several frameworks via cross-framework mapping.
Monitor continuously
Scheduled checks re-verify each control and harvest fresh evidence around the clock.
Alert on drift
A failing control raises a CCM alert with evidence and (optionally) opens a remediation ticket.
Verify the fix
When the issue is resolved, CATAAM re-runs the check to confirm the remediation is genuine before closing it out.
Continuous Control Monitoring FAQ
- What is continuous control monitoring (CCM)?
- Continuous control monitoring is the practice of automatically and repeatedly checking that your security and compliance controls are still operating effectively — instead of testing them once a year before an audit. CATAAM re-runs control checks on a schedule and raises an alert the moment a control drifts out of compliance.
- How is CCM different from a point-in-time audit?
- A point-in-time audit proves controls worked on one day. CCM proves they keep working every day. That continuous, timestamped history is exactly what a SOC 2 Type II report needs, and it means problems are caught in hours instead of at the next audit.
- Which frameworks does CATAAM monitor?
- SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS and NIST CSF. A single control check can satisfy multiple frameworks thanks to cross-framework mapping, so one monitor covers overlapping requirements.
- What happens when a control fails?
- CATAAM raises a CCM alert with the failing control and evidence, and can open a Jira issue for remediation. When the issue is resolved, the underlying check is re-run to verify the fix actually worked — not just that the ticket was closed.
- Does CCM include security testing, or just configuration checks?
- Both. Beyond configuration and evidence checks, CATAAM runs continuous breach & attack simulation and internal attack surface monitoring, so you prove controls actually stop attacks — not just that they exist on paper.
