Policy authoring and redlining in Compliance Workspace

Policies are effective when they’re carefully monitored and revised periodically. By reviewing and updating them at regular intervals, organizations can maintain updated policies to avoid audit and compliance risks.

Policies of an organization tend to get outdated over time either due to the growth of the organization or due to the changes that happen in an organization structure. For these reasons, policies must be carefully monitored and revised consistently.

Policy owners, collaborators, reviewers, and approvers enable policy authoring and redlining. Review and redlining of policy results in multiple versions that must be maintained for an audit purpose.
