Frameworks
Safeguard's automated tests read Nutanix and map to the controls below. When a test passes, the result is evidence toward each control it maps to, in every framework listed. It is evidence toward a control, not proof that the control is met on its own.
| Framework | Evidence | Controls | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOC2 | Automated tests | A1.2, CC6.3 | 2 |
| ISO/IEC 27001 | Automated tests | A.8.2, A.8.13 | 2 |
| HIPAA Security Rule | Automated tests | 164.308(a)(4), 164.308(a)(7) | 2 |
| PCI DSS | Automated tests | 7.2.2, 12.10.1 | 2 |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Automated tests | PR.AA-05, PR.DS-11 | 2 |
These tests are switched on per workspace by the Safeguard team.
