5 Ways to Modernize Audit Management with Automation

Audit prep doesn’t have to be a scramble.

In many organizations, it still is — emails flying, spreadsheets growing, teams rushing to locate evidence. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Here’s how LockThreat customers are modernizing their audit processes:

1. Pre-linked Controls and Policies
   Controls are already tied to frameworks and policies — so nothing needs to be mapped manually during prep.
2. Automated Evidence Collection
   From Jira to ServiceNow to M365, evidence can be pulled and tagged automatically — without chasing teams.
3. Audit Project Templates
   You can spin up an audit with pre-defined tasks, assignees, due dates, and dependencies.
4. Progress Dashboards
   Auditors and stakeholders get live status updates — no need to ping for updates.
5. One-Click Reports
   Export-ready audit trails are available with a single click — timestamped and mapped to controls.

It’s not about working harder. It’s about eliminating the friction.
